Development and manufacturing of innovative tooling for composite parts

The development of this tooling should be innovative in order to implement the best performances in:
– Eco-design for of the tooling manufactured, employing low cost/natural material
– Time and energy saving innovations in manufacturing of the future parts, for example by implementation of a more efficient heating system
– Use of innovative materials with automation (Hi-tape, NCF, etc.)
– Production time savings to reduce the cost and production lead times. Focusing on the heating and cooling system both for the tooling and to the element. Reducing the temperature changing times will significantly drop the times during the manufacture of the piece, being one of the key parts of the process. Given the faster system is at least as efficient as the one currently used in terms of energy, the cost of the manufacturing will also decrease.
Always ensuring that each one of the single parts manufactured with the prototype tooling fit with the Aeronautical quality standards. Please refer to th
