Hot-structure for
Re-entry Vehicle
Interdisciplinary teams at APL is committed to make advanced
manufacturing solutions more accessible and more distributed than ever before by
developing and integrating innovative design methodologies, automation, advanced
materials and testing into the design and production of new products and processes.
Thermo-structural Products for
High Enthalpy Flows
Vapor phase state-of-the art manufacturing methods are employed to
realize products which can withstand high heat flux conditions and retain mechanical
strength to perform under extreme environments. Functional coatings can be provided
to enhance capabilities and reliability of the end products.
Composite Structures for
Payload
Supporting structures with high dimensional stability at large
temperature variations, which can suppress the high vibration during launch are
designed and realized for space optical payloads. An extensive network of
manufacturing and testing facilities with appropriate design methodologies at APL
drives to develop these structures.
Deployment Structure for
Satellite
APL is committed to perform the unprecedented design requirements for
realizing the state-of-the-art unfurling and rotating reflector incorporating the
benefits of composites. The composite structure is employed to meet the stringent
mass requirement of the bigger satellite structure without compensating with the
imperative accuracy to function in the microgravity of space environment.
Structures for
Unmanned Vehicles
APL proposes to utilize the benefits of composite products to develop
various class of Unmanned vehicles like unmanned ground vehicle (UGV), unmanned
surface vehicle (USV), unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and so on for various
applications in industry, energy, research, defense and other sectors. Composite
based products are employed to arrive at optimistic aerodynamic design for the
manufacturing of the unmanned vehicle. APL's design and engineering work together
for design-optimization of the unmanned vehicle and manufacturing of monolithic and
component-level mass production feasibility. The advanced in-house capabilities in
air vehicle and mission system design and production are compounded with our
partner’s capabilities in communications, sensors and other payloads, simulation
systems, integration and program management capabilities to provide cutting-edge,
cost-effective turnkey UAS solutions for our customers. APL active global
partnership is aimed to adapt composite products-based solutions to achieve overall
customer program requirements.
Composite for
Aircraft
APL designs, qualifies and manufactures high-performance structural
and non-structural aerospace composite products for aviation applications. The
strength or durability of the products are achieved by appropriate manufacturing
methods to realize complex shapes. APL proposes to utilise a fully flexible
production capability to meet customers unique requirements, including one-off
problem solving, bespoke projects or volume manufacturing. The design, development
and testing capabilities allow for new techniques and concepts to be created and
fully tested to ensure that the products meet the highest quality standards.
Composite for
Automobile
APL proposes to lead the adoption of composite materials in serial
automotive for structural and bodywork applications, through differentiated material
solutions. The manufacturing methods are driven to support the drive for
lightweight, cost-effective, multi-materials vehicle solutions to meet the needs of
the automotive OEMS for high volume manufacture. APL proposes to adopt policies
where the portfolio of materials is refined and process technologies are tailored to
automotive applications to enable volume ramp up, robustness and scalability. The
application engineering capabilities combine expertise in materials, technologies
and processes to meet the customers’ needs.
