System and method for producing a fiber composite semifinished product and a process for producing a fiber composite component

A system (2) for producing a fiber composite semifinished product (4), comprising: an output unit (8) having a heating unit (10) and a print head (12); a manipulation device (14) for guiding the output unit (8); a feeding unit (16) for continuously supplying an endless starting material strand (18) to the output unit (8), wherein the starting material strand (18) with the thermoplastic matrix material (20) held continuous fibers (22); and a control unit (24) for controlling the manipulation device (14); wherein the heating unit (10) for performing and heating the starting material strand (18) is designed so that a heating unit (10) the fed starting material strand (18) as the heated material strand (26) from the heating unit (10) to the printhead (12) out is and to the thermoplastic matrix material (20) to heat up to a flow temperature; wherein the print head (12) is formed for continuously outputting the heated material strand (26); and wherein the control unit (24) is configured to cause the print head (12) by means of the manipulation device (14) controlled so that the dispensed material strand (34) has a web section (6) of fiber composite semi-finished product (4) continuously forms. In addition, a to the system (2) is proposed corresponding method for producing a fiber-composite semi-finished product (3) as well as a process for producing a fiber composite component (60).
