Design and Manufacturing of Advanced Composite Spacecraft

Significant disruptions are occurring in the space market that includes important advances in the use of composite material technologies. Industry experts recognize that the use of carbon fiber, and other composite materials, is growing significantly in spacecraft, satellite, launch vehicle, and virtually all other spaceflight related applications. This trend is being driven by a requirement to decrease weight, increase payload, and reduce fuel requirements. In this webinar, John O’Connor will discuss how the use of composite materials creates unique challenges for both engineering and manufacturing, and provide an overview of the specialized technology that is necessary to address these challenges. Join us to learn how Siemens PLM Software is being used to help companies meet the growing need for composite design and manufacturing solutions in spaceflight applications.
