The RECOMPOSE project has come to an end. The developments carried out have led to the design and validation of a composite power transmission drive line connecting the engine to the rear rotor of a helicopter. This innovation delivers a 30% weight reduction while offering superior technical performance, particularly in terms of strength and lightness, thus exceeding the initial objectives.
This work has also made it possible to define an industrial plan incorporating high-performance composite manufacturing processes. These advances strengthen our expertise in the design and production of high value-added equipment for dynamic assemblies.
The project has successfully combined industrial performance and innovation in the design of composite drive shafts. This approach has led to substantial gains in quality control, while increasing the accuracy of inspections through the integration of cutting-edge digital tools. These include artificial intelligence solutions dedicated to material health analysis applied to ultrasonic testing on an immersion bench developed as part of the project. This device thus significantly reduces inspection cycles while ensuring a high level of reliability.
The industrial model resulting from the project is based on operational excellence: a clear definition of processes, the adoption of high-performance tools and flexible production capable of adapting to different situations.
NEXTEAM is strengthening its expertise and leveraging technological advances in key areas such as materials, whether metallic or composite, to develop ever more innovative products. These developments will enable us to provide our customers with effective solutions to the challenges facing the aerospace industry and the industry of the future, with enhanced performance and compliance with the requirements of future aircraft.
The RECOMPOSE project perfectly illustrates the convergence between material innovation, industrial process optimisation and the integration of advanced digital technologies. This holistic approach promises to revolutionise the production of high-performance equipment in various industrial sectors.
