Hexcel Corporation, a leading advanced composites company, is set to exhibit at the Toulouse Space Show, to be held from June 26 to 28, 2018, in France, in booth C18, to promote its new technologies and innovations in composites for space applications. More than 3,000 visitors are expected at this global forum that is dedicated to novel solutions for space.

Hexcel’s promotions will feature a number of 3D-printed flight-ready carbon fibre parts manufactured from HexAM additive manufacturing technology, combining high performance PEKK thermoplastics with aerospace grade carbon fibre. HexPEKK structures offer significant weight, cost and time-to-market reductions, replacing traditional cast or machined metallic parts in highly demanding aerospace, satellite, and defence applications.

Other Hexcel solutions for space applications include carbon fibre, prepregs, and honeycomb materials with proven performance for satellite structures and launchers. (GK)
