A system (42) for forming multiple braided preform segments (34) includes a mandrel assembly (10) disposed along a mandrel axis (A), a radial braider (46) for winding fibers onto the mandrel assembly (10) to form a continuous braided article (30), an applicator (48) for applying a polymer binder to the braided article (30) while mounted on the mandrel assembly (10), and a debulking tool (50) for debulking the braided article (30) while mounted on the mandrel assembly (10). The mandrel assembly (10) includes a lead-in extension (16) defining a first end, an end extension (18) defining a second end, and a plurality of mandrels (12) removably connected to a plurality of transition pieces (14) and disposed axially between the lead-in extension (16) and the end extension (18).
