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