Description

Response Technologies will attempt to qualify to MIL-DTL-27422Fs phase I performance testing criteria for thefuel cell test cubes[Class BSemi rigid or self-supporting fuel construction, Type ISelf-sealing, and Protection Level CFull self-sealing against 50 caliber and partial self-sealing against 14.5 mm] .Response Technologiesuses an additive manufacturing process that initially creates a textile reinforced structure that uses advanced industrial yarns that RT has uniquely developed for its AM process.Through additive manufacturing, RT can add strength and reinforcement at the fiber level, while approaching theoretical minimum weight.The textile is then formed using a non-destructive molding process(es) to get the shape and the interior fuel resistant chemistry on.Fittings are integrated into the structure and the entire unit is then coated with: self-sealing, abrasion resistant, responsive, and durable coatings.
