Services portfolio
As a long-term innovation partner to Airbus and their supply chain, we’re advancing next-generation composite wing technologies. Our work sets the foundation for what’s next. Deploying capabilities from material characterisation to flying parts manufacturing, we deliver industrialised and certifiable solutions for future flight.
Technology leaders showcase innovative materials & manufacturing technologies, focused on pulling fundamental innovative technology through the mid Technology Readiness Levels (TRL 4-7) as a means of showing greater application of novel research for UK Defence.
Part of a European research project focused on reducing waste in wind turbine blade production, we're developing a new digital system that uses sensors to monitor the manufacturing process. Through active control, this digital innovation has the potential to significantly reduce typical re-work, scrap & repair for more efficient & sustainable blade production.
In collaboration with the University of Bristol, we've developed high-performance composite materials that were tested on the International Space Station. The results will inform the design of future space structures, such as space stations & interplanetary spacecraft.
