Aerospace · Wiiboox industrial high-temperature FDM 3D printer
PEEK Composites for Aerospace Thermal Protection
One-piece 10kg+ thermal base, ~70% lower sample cost and ~90% shorter time
Challenge
Aerospace thermal parts demand ablation/radiation resistance and one-piece forming; conventional machining is costly and slow.
Solution
An aerospace research institute used a Wiiboox industrial high-temperature FDM printer to form a 10kg+ ablative thermal base in PEEK-CF and integrated environmental-control manifolds.
Outcome
- One-piece 10kg+ ablative thermal base
- About 70% lower sample manufacturing cost
- About 90% shorter production time
