This thesis is concerned with the production of preforms by using the braiding technique. Therefore, both the machine technology and possible braids are described. Furthermore, an examination of production constraints is made. These constraints can significantly be influenced by an electronically controlled carrier, which is developed in the context of this work. As an applicable simulation of the braiding process is needed, the state of the art in process simulation is analysed. Moreover, approaches for its optimisation are developed and evaluated.
