A method for fabricating a composite wing structural component for an aircraft is described. The method comprises extruding a filler material into each mold channel of a plurality of mold channels of a die to form a plurality of filler segments, removing the plurality of filler segments from the plurality of mold channels of the die, and arranging the plurality of filler segments in a space in the composite structural component, the space being defined by a radius of the composite structural component, such that the filler segments are in end-to-end contact. The method further comprises curing the plurality of filler segments in the space to fuse the plurality of filler segments.
An aircraft, comprising a fuselage and a wing extending from the fuselage, the aircraft comprising a composite part including
A composite part for an aircraft, the composite part comprising:
A die for forming a radius filler for a composite aircraft wing stringer, the die comprising a plurality of mold channels arranged across a surface of the die, each mold channel shaped to form a radius filler segment for the radius filler.
