Development) to develop and accelerate composite material and process technologies for the next generation of energy efficient aircraft and future mobility.
The £40 million consortium, funded by a £20 million commitment from industry and a £19.6 million commitment from the UK Government via the Aerospace Technology Institute (ATI), will focus on greater adoption of composite technologies, the industrialization of new technologies, as well as accelerating aerospace production rates to meet future high-volume requirements. This includes the development of advanced material and automation equipment technologies across the U.K. supply chain to manufacture lightweight structures for the sustainable air mobility, aerospace and automotive industries.
