T
developments in aerospace processing, structural composite components, electronic enclosures, ballistic and missile manufacturing capabilities. Meanwhile, The Attwater
Group (
www.attwater.com), the manufacturers of industrial laminates and insulation materials, will unveil its range of fabric (SRBF), paper (SRBP), glass (SRBG) including polyimide as well as a range of carbon fibre laminates. The company will also be showcasing its enhanced manufacturing capabilities, following further investment in CNC milling and turning centres this year.
CGTech: Vericut composite applications
he event’s show floor will be a hive of activity and nowhere more so than on Atlas Composites’
fuselage barrel on an Electroimpact multi-machine AFP fabrication cell; an aircraft inlet duct on a Cincinnati Viper 1200 AFP machine; the challenges encountered supporting a flexible AFP gantry machine; lay-up of a U-channel structure on a 7-axis MTorres AFP machine; and aircraft skin panels and experiments using an AFP head mounted on a 6-axis robot. Throughout the show, CGTech will
Still on the theme of composites,
CGTech (
www.cgtech.com) will be showcasing its Vericut Composites Applications Software on its stand. Visitors will see an overview of the steps needed to get from a CAD designed composite part to CNC programs that drive an automated fibre placement (AFP) machine. Current customer projects to be highlighted include: a large one-piece
be demonstrating Vericut Composite Applications: Vericut Composite Programming (VCP) & Vericut Composite Simulation (VCS). The company will also be exhibiting the latest version of its Vericut CNC machine simulation software. Elsewhere, CMS (
www.cmsukltd.
co.uk) will be discussing its complete range of 5-axis CNC machine centres. Particular emphasis will be placed on the Antares and Ares ranges, which are
– next generation composite and metallic structures, electrical and mechanical systems and propulsion – next generation challenges and opportunities. Composites Business Trends and Support: Get the top view of the UK composites sector and understand how to shape your business for best advantage or to enter the value chain as a supplier or smart customer; understand the business and technical support mechanisms already in place assisting the rapidly developing UK value chain. Aero Engineering is co-located with
