Contents Summary
Composite Technology:

Composite Technology is one of most important technologies for lowering


operation cost on commercial aircraft. Latest Airplanes are boasting to utilize their
owned composite technologies for satisfying the customer needs. Followings are
examples of the new comers.
* Boeing 787 * Airbus A350XWB * Bombardier CSeries * Mitsubishi MRJ All have
composite wing except MRJ.

Composite application on MRJ is empennage and control surface, amounting to 10 -


15% of the total airframe weight.
Introduction:
Designing an aircraft can be an overwhelming task for a new designer. The
designer must determine where the wing goes, how big to make the fuselage, and
how to put all the pieces together. A sound choice of the general arrangement of a
new aircraft design should be based on a proper investigation into and
interpretation of the transport function and a translation of the most pertinent
requirements into a suitable positioning of the major parts in relation to each other.
No clear-cut design procedure can be followed and the task of devising the
configuration is therefore a highly challenging one to the resourceful designer.
Discussion:
Structure 1. Semi-monocoque 2. Monocoque
- It is difficult to inspect.
- Limit of autoclave: 10m; The Kai holding autoclave is about 7m
- The wing box is made of composite material, the rest is made of metal material.
- Composite materials are important for optimistic estimates.
- Controls use metal (specific gravity / storage point of view)

Light Resin transfer molding (RTM)


- RTM refers to molding a reinforced fiber preform into a mold of a desired shape,
injecting the resin into the mold through the injection port, and applying heat
and pressure while keeping the mold in a vacuum. It is the molding method
adopted when mass production of relatively small products.
- RTM (resin filling process) is a closed mold manufacturing process. Finishing parts
are made by injection of polyester, vinyl ester, epoxy or polyurethane resin into
a closed mold containing fiberglass, carbon or other reinforcement. RTM does
not require molds or high pressure mold closure systems. When using resins
that cure at low temperatures, the mold will require a high performance resin
system. The ideal part quantity is 500 ~ 10,000 pieces per year.
- For closed moldings, two molds are used: male mold and female mold. You can
gel coat one or two molds to achieve a glossy surface finish. The reinforcement
material is injected into one mold and then the two molds are sealed together.
- Next, the catalyst resin is injected into the mold until all the space is filled. Parts
made from a closed mold process tend to be of high quality because the
amount of resin used to couple the two molds is mechanically controlled.
Closed moldings provide consistent weight and thickness between parts.

Advantages of RTM
- Less waste
- Faster gel and cure time
- Same part size and thickness
- Continuous use of materials
- Double-sided surface finish
- Reduced VOC emissions - Reduced impact on the environment
- High fiber content to lighten parts
Needed composite technology:
To realize large one-piece structure Bolt-less, shim-less structure
To establish cost-effective EME counter-measure
To realize tight tolerant structural parts (for geometry / thickness) To enhance
automation for assembly
To develop cost-effective and tougher composite material

Conclusion:
Composite materials have few studies on aging. This is because the period of use
was short. Ten years later, the change in physical properties was small. The part
about fatigue is unknown. Concurrent engineering is required when using
composites. Concurrent Engineering also called 'CE' after initials. It is not the
process of planning, designing, completing, testing, and mass-producing all the
production processes in sequence, but in parallel, at the same time, and after-sales
support in sales, maintenance, It is a system that manages the tasks integrally. It
also reflects the quality, cost, and schedule considerations and consumer
requirements across the life cycle of the product lifecycle.

Manufacturers can expect lead time (total time from raw material purchase to
production, distribution and delivery to customers), quality improvement and cost
reduction through concurrent design. As competition intensifies, product lifecycles
are shortened, and consumers prefer high-performance products, the need to
develop and produce products faster and cheaper has increased interest in
concurrent design.

Composite is vulnerable to moisture. Most bonding methods require surface


treatment for bonding but bonding.
