EUCOMAS 2009
Welcome Address
In the aerospace industry, new technologies will be the driver for the successful
competitive positioning of the OEMs in an expected upturn of the “post-crisis”
economy. One success factor is certainly the extended use of new materials and
the specific design concepts for lightweight structures which promise huge
economic and ecological benefits for the airlines and space vehicle operators.
In that sense, the future seems black – not because of the crisis, but due to
the wide use of black carbon fibre reinforced polymers (CFRP) especially for
military and civil aircraft, as the programme Airbus A400M, Airbus A350 and
Boeing 787 remarkably show. CFRP, due to its excellent material properties,
offers huge potential for weight reduction and enhancement of life of primarily
fuselage, wing and high-lift structures. But with all this euphoria, there is still a
lot to do to obtain the greatest benefit from the properties of CFRP.
The current “black metal” designs have to retreat and new CFRP-specific,
anisotropy driven design concepts have to be developed. Aiming at an output of
40 planes a month, the economical production of these CFRP structures forces
a drastic increase in automation. In this context, new joining and assembly
technologies play an important role, above all the adhesive bonding.
Even the production-integrated quality control needs new, fast and precise
non-destructive analysis tools, including the proper interpretation of structural
defects. But the world of aerospace structures is not only CFRP. After years of
hibernation, aluminium alloys are taking up the competition heading for lowcost
– low-weight primary structures – with remarkable potential.
EUCOMAS 2009 will consequently address all these important issues within
the presentation programme, but will also give room for intensive discussion
and networking in the specific workshops. In addition, the Aerospace Area
Augsburg offers you excellent opportunities for excursions and contacts with
renowned companies like Premium Aerotec, Eurocopter, EADS, MT Aerospace,
Kuka and SGL. Consequently, EUCOMAS provides a platform for exchange and
creativity and aims for pushing technology forward by cooperation.
We warmly welcome you to EUCOMAS 2009 in Augsburg.
