Really well-written piece, Scott Francis – engaging and thoughtfully put together. Thanks to Joby Aviation, Toray Advanced Composites and the National Institute for Aviation Research for highlighting the benefits of A&P’s 45° braided fabrics – rate enabling, labor and waste reducing, and cost saving. #betterwithbraid #composites #aerospace #advancedmaterials #urbanairmobility
A recent time study by Joby Aviation in collaboration with Toray Advanced Composites, A&P Technology, Inc. and the National Institute for Aviation Research compares the layup of a wing spar using prepreg with A&P’s TX-45 continuous braided reinforcement versus traditional twill woven prepreg.
