Researchers have created a self-healing composite that is tougher than materials currently used in aircraft wings, turbine blades and other applications—and can repair itself more than 1,000 times.
Composites are integral to lightweight, high-strength structures—but manufacturing them is traditionally slow, manual, and fragmented. Saeki breaks this bottleneck with a unique full-stack approach, ...
Continuous Composites’ CF3D fuses continuous-fibre steering, instant UV curing and an automated, anisotropy-aware design workflow into a full-stack platform. The result: near-net composite components ...
Sheergard Utah brings sandwich radome manufacturing in-house, combining engineering, tooling, and production expertise ...
Every step of the composites manufacturing process requires energy. Energy to produce the fiber, energy to design and energy to manufacture the final part. There is also a fair amount of energy ...
Aircraft and composites manufacturers continue to explore new ways to leverage additive manufacturing (AM) to cut costs, reduce weight, and speed part production. One of the keys to broader adoption: ...
Polymer matrix composites (PMCs) are made by reinforcing a polymer-based matrix with glass, carbon, or aramid fibers. PMCs are classified into thermosetting and thermoplastic resins based on the type ...
As aerospace continues its pursuit of higher performance, lower weight, and improved lifecycle efficiency, metal-to composite component conversion is a key enabler of innovation. Whether in commercial ...
The composite manufacturing index fell 10 points to -17, remaining in negative territory for a seventh straight month. Shipments dropped to -20 from -5, new orders fell to -15 from -6, and employment ...
