General Asset Management Corporation has completely recycled carbon fiber from commercial aircraft. This step of sustainable development has made UAM a global expert in comprehensive recycling of aircraft.
To illustrate this achievement, UAM demonstrated a 3D print engine mount made of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) for commercial aircraft at the three-day MRO Americas conference. The resulting second-generation carbon fiber material is suitable as a raw material for industrial use. As a result, it has become a viable supply for advanced additive manufacturing supply chains, and automotive and other manufacturing industries need to use cost-competitive carbon fibers.
Among all the structural elements that make up an aircraft, carbon fiber is the most difficult to recycle. The past fifteen (15) years of efforts have not produced a viable solution to fully bring back the cyclical economy of carbon fiber back to the manufacturing industry. Now, it The success has opened up possibilities outside the aviation community, paving the way for aircraft's overall recyclability. UAM's proprietary engineering on decommissioned aircraft using CFRP is a precursor to future products being developed by UAM's innovative technology team. Carbon fiber composite The use of materials is on the rise because today's modern aircraft are now made of about 50% composite materials compared to less than 1% of aircraft manufactured in the 1970s.
As the world's first, this achievement surpassed aviation. UAM is the only company that harvests CFRP from the end of life to re-introduce CFRP into the manufacturing industry. We are an innovative technology company and it is honored to be recognized as recycling and sustainable development. The leader, Ms. Wright said. 'This unique proprietary process is the first industry for aircraft recyclability. The possibilities of our application are limited to our own imagination. UAM and its parent company Aircraft Recycling International ARI is still committed to becoming a global leader in comprehensive aircraft recycling solutions.
UAM applies technology to technology by proving that aerospace components can be re-launched from composites of used aircraft. The selection of 12,000 aircraft to be decommissioned in the next 20 years will be flawless. The delivery of engine mounts is used in the aerospace industry. Tangible evidence of the feasibility of sustainable digital manufacturing solutions. UAM will discuss recycling opportunities and benefits with aviation and non-airlines within a few months after the MRO Americas.
