Addictive Tooling -Additive Fertigung Innovativer Toolings zur Herstellung Intelligenter Faserverbundbauteile

In Addictive Tooling the consortium will develop a manufacturing process for an undercut FRP hollow structure for the EC135 rotor system and its associated tooling system in additive manufacturing. Therefore, a new designed vacuum assisted infusion technology will be the baseline for further development of intelligent, sensor-optimized toolings and robust processes.

BISANCE - BIphasic System integrated in the Airframe of a NaCElle

The project intends to test in icing wind tunnel (IWT) one demonstrator of engine air intake integrated in a nacelle and equipped with an innovative biphasic heat transport system for regenerating the energy from the oil of the engine. The objective, by testing the technology in a representative environment, is to reach TRL5. At the end of the project the technology will be able to be further developed towards TRL6 to 9 with the final aim to be transferred to the aeronautic value chain.

Hairmate - Hybrid Aircraft Seating Manufacturing and Testing

HAIRMATE project aims to design and manufacture moulds for manufacturing and testing the next generation aircraft seating obtained in the HAIRD project. Within the HAIRD project a new seating with reduction of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) risk, multi-functionality and simple surfaces for composite manufacturing was designed. The moulds to manufacture the structural parts will be manufactured.

I³PS - Integration of Innovative Ice Protection Systems

The project goal is to economically remove ice accreting on aircraft structure critical parts and thus increase reliability and mass saving on the global function. By comparison with the present existing solutions which are based on active pneumatic and electro-thermal means the targeted solutions will enable electrical power consumption, cost and mass reductions and ease the overall integration process.

MoVeTech - Model-Based Processing Technique for the Manufacturing of High-Quality Structural FRP Components for the Aerospace Industry

It is within the MoVeTech project that the concept of model-based processing technology was first implemented in the ARTM (Advanced Resin Transfer Moulding) process. This concept is based on the idea of combining phenomenologically based know-how about relevant mechanisms (heat conduction and transfer on moulds and composites, flow processes during mould filling or curing kinetics of reactive resins) in the form of mathematical models, and making them available at the level of process management - while adhering to real-time requirements.

SARISTU - Smart Intelligent Aircraft Structures

The concept of Smart Intelligent Aircraft Structures offers significant improvements in aircraft total weight, manufacturing cost and, above all, operational cost by an integration of system tasks into the load carrying structure. The project focuses on integration activities in the three distinct technological areas airfoil morphing, self-sensing and multifunctional structures through self-healing and the use of nanoreinforced resins.
