When you want to make an electric motor sleeve using automated fiber placement (AFP) with thermoset material, here's a quick look at the process. The video showcases the towpreg going through the AFP system, demonstrating the speed and efficiency of this production method. This system is at the forefront of showcasing how quickly the transition to electric motor sleeves can happen. The AFP process, as seen in the video, is capable of producing high-quality motor sleeves at an impressive rate, making it a game-changer in the manufacturing industry. The towpreg, a combination of carbon fiber tows and thermoset resin, is precisely controlled and placed onto the mandrel to create the desired shape and structure of the motor sleeve. The speed at which the AFP system operates is truly remarkable, significantly reducing manufacturing time compared to traditional methods. The thermoset material used in the AFP process is carefully chosen for its exceptional thermal and mechanical properties, ensuring optimal performance and durability in electric motor applications. #composites #additivemanufacturing #AFP #automatedmanufacturing #advancedmaterials #robotics #innovation #compositemanufacturing #automation #engineers #technology

We are working on the continued growth of Lightweight Thinking at TDI. Our efforts have been centred on laying the groundwork for product launches and advancing core product engineering. Recently, we tested the Revolution VLR Demonstrator as part of on-going engineering work. Our Head of Design and Engineering, Paul Salkeld, shares his insights on these exciting developments at Transport Design International, "Testing is a part of the development process and being able to verify the performance of a product against the parameters we have set in the early stages of the programme, is a fundamental part of the process."

A massive thank you to the 1,000 new #RepairHeroes who have joined ABI’s journey, allowing us to reach 10,000 followers on LinkedIn! Over the past year, we’ve gone from strength to strength, continuing to champion our highly successful, sustainability movement Repair, don't waste!, educating people on the benefits of PCB repair, with us recently winning the Sustainability Champion Award 2024 from Engineering Matters. This a huge step forward for fostering a broader acceptance of the repair-oriented mindset that will lead to increased PCB lifespans and a greener future for electronics. For ABI’s fault diagnostic and reverse engineering technologies, we've forged new global collaborations with multiple companies, from Stellantis and Valeo to LG Energy Solution, and signed a multi-million-dollar contract with The Royal Saudi Land Forces for 10 #BoardMasters and 2 #RevEng. These new international partnerships will set a precedent for a greater worldwide adoption of repair technologies across several key sectors as industries switch even more towards in-house repair and maintenance. This is a major milestone and an enormous but highly rewarding endeavour for all of us at ABI and Repair, don’t waste, here’s to the next 10,000 followers!

ASTM International's exoskeletons and exosuits committee (F48) is working on a proposed standard that will guide for maintaining exoskeletons. According to Matthew Dickinson, an ASTM member, the proposed standard will focus on helping users of exoskeletons. The proposed standard will provide a systematic approach to testing that will help ensure that the exoskeletons function seamlessly and align with their design expectations. Matthew Dickinson, a senior lecturer in mechanical engineering at the School of Engineering, University of Central Lancashire, underscores the importance of establishing a procedural framework to verify the safe and effective use of exoskeletons. Given their pivotal role in augmenting the capabilities of workers, the proposed standard directly contributes to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal #3 on good health and well-being, underscoring its potential impact on the safety and well-being of exoskeleton users. ASTM welcomes participation in the development of its standards, which cover exoskeletons for a variety of uses, including industrial, emergency response, medical, military, and consumer applications covering passive and active systems.
