Aerospace. CFM growth based on proven competence
•
in automated serial manufacturing
•
•
Limitations in today's aerospace composites manufacturing prevented further penetration beyond Boeing
787 and Airbus 380 and 350
Low annual production volume allow labor intensive production processes
Composites for aerospace are by far the most expensive. Average markup (ratio of end-user/raw material cost) is nearly
6.5, and thus far ahead of the next sector, consumer goods (ratio of 2.9) 1
Aerospace industry likely to further increase composites penetration rate between 2016-20211
Requirement: higher use of automation to produce composite parts at lower manufacturing costs and increased
production volumes
We are ideally positioned to address exactly these issues based on our carbon fiber and composites
competence acquired while working for the automotive industry
Integrated value chain from precursor to components
Materials (e.g. fabrics) for secondary structures, and interior applications
New aerospace projects for materials and aircraft components
