Spirit AeroSystems has developed a new, lower-cost composite manufacturing process for commercial aircraft fuselages it expects will be ready for production as soon as 2025. The US company, which is ...

Widespread in aerospace, laminated fiber-reinforced polymer matrix composites are also increasingly used in other sectors, including the automotive industry. The identification of optimal cutting ...

FibreLINE automates the entire preforming process. It cuts, sorts and sequences large plys of carbon fibre and other composite material before shaping and placing it onto a mould where it is inspected ...

Perseus Materials is reinventing composites manufacturing as it is currently known. Perseus Materials wants to build bigger, faster, anywhere. They are developing and applying a proprietary composite ...

Lightweight, high-strength polymer composites are essential to modern engineering, but their production has long been hindered by complexity, inefficiency, and reliance on manual adjustments. A study ...

Thermoplastic composites manufacturing and smart preforming enables “one-minute” manufacturing of composite parts. In addition, thermoplastic composites are easier to recycle than their thermoset ...

One cannot discuss Italian industry without mentioning family-run businesses, given their profound importance to the Italian ...

Airplane wings and wind turbine blades are typically created using bulk polymerization in composite manufacturing facilities. They are heated and cured in enormous autoclaves and heated molds as big ...

The first all-composite brake pedals developed by Boge Rubber & Plastics Group using a bespoke production process meet or exceed the challenging performance specs required of metals at nearly half the ...

Despite the versatility of fluoropolymers in demanding, high-performance applications under harsh environments, many of them have been classified as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and are ...
