The following arrived in my Inbox today. I subscribe to a fascinating tech newsletter (www.yet2.com,click yet2.com Marketplace, for free sign-up) and I know this list is for electrical stuff, but we all share the same interest in technology and I thought many of you would be inspired by the stuff that turns up here.
I hope you enjoy the article.
This technology could be a turning point in decreasing the cost of building airplanes.
Cheers,
John
Uni-body composite plastic chassis
Developed at a Fortune 500 company, this innovation is a patented one-piece fiber-reinforced plastic composite chassis produced by the sheet molding compression (SMC) production method of manufacturing. The composite structural material used is high-glass-content vinyl ester, toughened with urethane for good fatigue and damage tolerance. The clamp-to-clamp molding cycle time for this complete one-piece composite chassis is four (4) minutes. Composite structural golf cart chassis molded by the SMC method have been built and tested, and proved to be fully operational and functional. The major advantage of this solution is to reduce the part count from 150-200 to one molded piece with intrinsic corrosion resistance. Moreover, the flexibility in composite design allows the molding of different features to allow customization of the vehicle for different uses and different power trains.
