Ability to manufacture complex shaped composite components that require tight tolerances in production High performance, cost-effective composite components and assemblies Composite Technologies Used AEC is working with Rolls-Royce to support the development of the Inner Stage Vane (ISV), Outer Guide Vane (OGV), and CIAM assemblies for the Rolls-Royce LiftFan®, used in the F-35B aircraft.
Filament Winding
Albany Engineered Composites
Albany Engineered Composites (AEC) has been a leader in the advancement and use of filament winding as a low-cost repeatable process for fabrication of composite structures.
STaR - Struts, Tubes and Rods
Albany Engineered Composites
The AEC STaR product line meets the aerospace industry demand for high-performance, light-weight structural composite hardware providing high strength-to-weight ratio vs. traditional metallic parts. Using patented manufacturing technology licensed by Bodair S.A. and a unique monolithic design, AEC produces struts, tubes and rods for commercial and military aircraft applications that exceed other composite production methods in weight savings.
Hand Lay-up Composite Structures
Albany Engineered Composites
Albany Engineered Composites (AEC) has more than four decades of experience in design and fabrication of composite structures, many of which have been fabricated using pre-preg materials and lay-up autoclave cure processing. AEC facilities have the capability to manufacture composite structures using a variety of material systems including Epoxy, BMI, Phenolic, Cynate Ester, and high-temperature Polyimide resins.
Bell V-247
Albany Engineered Composites
Range View Range Map Launch from land or sea. The V- 247 goes farther and faster for around-the-clock surveillance, even in remote locations. Providing more coverage with less aircraft, 24-hours-a-day, 7-days-a-week-ultimately reducing total mission costs. With multi-weapon compatibility and extreme precision, the V-247 is up for any challenge.
Primary Airframe Structural Assemblies and Components
Albany Engineered Composites
Albany Engineered Composites (AEC) provides a full spectrum of design, analysis, fabrication and assembly of primary aerospace airframe structural assemblies and components, including: Fuselage and wing skins (co-cured stiffeners) Ribs and spars Frames Rotor blades Control surfaces AEC employs the latest in sophisticated manufacturing processes and technologies necessary for the fabrication of the most complex and close-tolerance structures.
Triaxial Braiding
Albany Engineered Composites
The braiding process is one of the most practical and effective manufacturing methods available to the composite industry today. To place the economy of braiding in perspective, it is estimated that 40% of conventional filament winding would be more cost effective by braiding.
