Project OPTIMA launched for thermoplastic composites manufacturing

CCP Gransden, the University of Sheffield AMRC and Sigmatex launched Project OPTIMA, a 2-year collaborative program to develop intelligent automation for high-rate thermoplastic composite manufacturing for aerospace structures. The project is supported by the ATI SME Program.

“OPTIMA gives us a valuable opportunity to look at thermoplastic composites manufacturing from start to finish, something that is often difficult to achieve within a single project.”compositesworld.com
