UPDATE: This notice has been updated to extend the response date to March 7th, 2025
NASA Ames Research Center (ARC) is hereby soliciting information from potential sources for manufacturing process development of high-rate composites for aerospace applications.
Description
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Ames Research Center (ARC), on behalf of the Engineering Directorate and Aeronautics Directorate, is hereby soliciting information from potential sources regarding high-rate thermoplastic manufacturing technologies and process development. NASA is interested in engaging with government, industry, and academia for collaborations to develop thermoset and thermoplastic manufacturing processes tailored, but not limited, to aerospace applications with the Ames High-Rate Composite Manufacturing Facility (AHRCM). The AHRCM supports the research and development of aerospace materials processes (particularly for thermoplastic composites), modeling, and large structures with the goal of mitigating labor-in-the-loop manufacturing bottlenecks by increasing volumetric fabrication throughput of composites and reducing inertial assembly errors as a virtue of robotic automation.
This Request for Information (RFI) serves to solicit organizations that have demonstrated heritage referencing composite materials for aerospace applications, particularly those pertaining to aeronautics, spacecraft, intelligent structures, automotive, and other high-rate thermoset & thermoplastic manufacturing applications.
Background
The emerging Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) industry must rely heavily on advanced composite materials to build vehicles that will meet the performance and safety requirements needed to achieve commercial success. These electrically powered vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) vehicles must make extensive use of light-weight carbon fiber composite structures and components to maximize vehicle range and payload achi... - Documents:
