A recent article published by JEC Composites highlights the COCOMO project, supported by France 2030 and funded by Bpifrance. This project contributes to the development of a French industrial sector dedicated to the manufacturing of fairings for micro and mini launchers.
Alongside Mecano ID and MaiaSpace, Compositadour is leveraging its expertise in the manufacturing of large composite structures as well as in automated manufacturing processes.
The article notably covers:
- the increasing industrial maturity of the demonstrator
- technological choices related to Automated Fibre Placement (AFP)
- key New Space challenges, particularly in terms of cost reduction and production rate
The article provides insight into the ongoing transformations within the space industry, as well as the challenges associated with the industrialisation of large composite structures.
