Automotive Processes for High-Rate Aerospace Composites Manufacturing

April 02, 2020 |

Learn how to bridge high-rate automotive manufacturing processes to aerospace, while maintaining aerospace-grade quality and performance. Register today!

High-rate production is a challenging hurdle for engineers in both the automotive and aerospace industries. This webinar presents the development of of a new material CYCOM® EP2750 and associated processes - such as Double Diaphragm Forming (DDF) - capable of increasing the manufacturing rate of small to medium composite parts by 10-20 times (as compared to autoclave manufacturing). Learn how to bridge high-rate automotive manufacturing processes to aerospace, while maintaining aerospace-grade quality and performance.

Primary Topics:

  • High-rate manufacturing technologies for aerospace composites
  • Industrialization of automated composite manufacturing
  • Cost-effective automotive manufacturing techniques
  • Key processing parameters
