Description
PEI composite technology offers corrosion resistant, minimal maintenance and an alternative risk reduction approach to manufacturing. PEI has developed lightweight, high-strength, shock-qualified, composite materials, and manufacturing processes for structural components for use in sandwich panels. PEI’s sandwich panels and composite materials technology are good candidates for payload components. PEI has been developing composite materials using additives that improve strength and toughness. The service-life and reliability of the payload assemblies would be improved by using lightweight sandwich structural composite parts that have excellent resistance to corrosion, chemical attack, outdoor weathering, and underwater. Weight reduction for insertion of payloads on NAVY platforms is critical. PEI will design and develop the required low cost, high strength composite parts for APM assemblies that are corrosion resistant, require minimal maintenance. Composite structures with complex shapes and geometry can be made with proven PEI technologies and manufacturing processes.
