Co-cured composite materials has its own characteristics, so its thermal expansion is different each other. The selection of tool material for co-cured composite part in high temperature more over $350^{circ}F$ and 50 Psi pressure have to consider part thermal expansion, size, shape, and economic aspect in production line. So it is important choose tooling material in manufacturing composite parts. We called the tool for airplane composite parts as BAJ (Bonding Assembly Jig). Composite parts are cured on the BAJ in autoclave. BAJ have to stable at high temperature over $350^{circ}F$ and 50 Psi pressure, Considering composite parts' dimensional tolerance compare to heat up in autoclave. This paper come from the results of the experiment at the composite parts production line and review other aircraft company's method for tooling This is for the engineer engaged in composite parts manufacturing.

We design and fabricate the 94 GHz Coplanar waveguide(CPW)-to-rectangular waveguide transition that is transmits signal smoothly between the CPW, which is a popular transmission line of the planar circuits, and rectangular waveguide for the 94 GHz transceiver system. The proposed transition composed of the unilateral fin-line taper and open type CPW-to-slot-line transition is based on the hard and inflexible sapphire for the flip-chip bonding of the planar MMICs using conventional MMIC technology. We optimize a single section transition to achieve low loss by using an EM field solver of Ansoft's HFSS and fabricate the back- to-back transition that is measured by Anritsu ME7808A Vector Network Analyzer in a frequency range of $85{\sim}105$ GHz. From the measurement and do-embedding CPW with 3 mm length, an insertion and return loss of a single-section transition are 1.7 dB and more an 25 than at 94 GHz, respectively.
