Composites-focused technocenter builds alliances for R&D in digital and sustainable technologies, additive manufacturing, TPCs, hydrogen and new technocenter development.
Composites bonding and welding are two similar but distinct processes that overcome challenges related to fasteners or drilling. Here are some resources to get you started.
Clean Sky 2 project under the MFFD program produces two segments of an 8.5-meter-long, 4-meter-diameter thermoplastic fuselage skin via NLR’s in-house AFP machine, with consolidation plans this summer.
Outlined technology bricks — including foldable wings, more efficient engines and propulsion and composite materials — could support a planned single-aisle next decade, plus Airbus’s renewed commitment of a commercially viable H2 aircraft.
Despite persistent supply chain issues, markets were set for healthy growth before Trump policies and tariffs, yet long-term trends favor composites in new platforms. Meanwhile, advanced air mobility shakes out and moves forward.
Thermoplastics are evolving quickly into larger structures and clearly will have a significant role to play in the next commercial aircraft program — whenever that’s announced. This edition of “From the CW Archives” looks back on a thermoplastics pioneer.
The HERWINGT project in Clean Aviation seeks to ready technologies — including at least 16 composite demonstrators — for a hybrid-electric regional aircraft with 50% less fuel burn to be launched by 2035.
