Carl Zweben, a consultant on composites and advanced thermal management materials, was previously advanced technology manager and division Fellow at the former GE Astro Space (Valley Forge, Pa.). He is a Fellow of ASME, ASM and SAMPE, and an Associate Fellow of AIAA. He has over 35 years of experience in the
Additive fabrication (AF) technology, such as laser sintering (LS) and fused deposition modeling (FDM), encompasses a wide range of applications. The earliest was rapid prototyping to support design, concept modeling, fit/function testing, and pattern making without the need to construct expensive tooling for prototypes and test articles. Manufacturers also are using AF to produce jigs, fixtures, drill guides, and other manufacturing and assembly tools.
If you're headed to CAMX 2014, Oct. 13-16 in Orlando, Fla., be sure to check out the entries in the Awards for Composites Excellence (ACE) and the CAMX Awards — some of which are previewed here.
Barton Bennett (Odyssian Technology, South Bend, Ind.) discusses multifunctional systems that will soon integrate composite structures with sensors, mechanisms and subsystems.
Fiber-reinforced composite tooling, ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) and woven fiber composites are all now the realm of 3D printing.
Airbus Helicopter Germany produces composite primary structure for 30+ years, first all-composite doors for A350 XWB and latest “kinked” composite blades for new “quiet” rotorcraft.
Highlights from the Composites Convention 2019, June 12-13, in Stade, Germany, organized by CFK Valley e.V. and Carbon Composites e.V, and the German Aerospace Center’s 5th Colloquium on Production Technology, on May 15, in Augsburg.
NCC/ACI partnership to commercialize flexible lead zirconate titanate piezoelectric fibers in self-powered and "smart" composite products.
Biomimicry is an interdisciplinary methodology that can inform composites design and manufacturing via use of more effective and sustainable materials, structural fabrication and technological practices.
CAMX, the second year, was in interesting event, marked by a lot of enthusiasm, a lot of innovation and many new products.
