COFRARE 2020 | Out of autoclave technologies for frame and shear tie of Regional Aircraft

Summary
The main approach to achieve the proposed targets will be to focus on innovative concepts and manufacturing technologies such as liquid resin transfer molding (RTM) and thermoplastics compression molding processes.
In this sense there have been a lot of researches carried out in recent years and still nowadays on-going are proving the technical feasibility of resin transfer molding and thermoplastic material-based processes to manufacture structural aeronautical components, but they need to be up-scaled at industrial level, upon checking the technical, economic and environmental impact in real productive conditions.
One step forward, specific for frames for regional aircraft COFRARE 2.0, in the project several studies are being carried out
