…Ceramic Matrix Composites Pick, Place, and Form Automation Source: Boeing Principal Investigator: Boeing Project Team: University of Southern California and 3M Project Description: This project seeks to develop adaptive path planning to ensure affordability of Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMC) components for hypersonic platforms, or an object that exceeds 5 the speed-of-sound (Mach 5 or greater). The project also seeks to integrate improvements to automated pick, place, and form for processing CMC fabric prepregs using 3D vision-based sensors to reduce the cost and variability for high-rate production of CMC structures. Benefits of this approach include having a cost-competitive alternative to titanium,…

…Inc., Carnegie Mellon University, ATI Specialty Alloys and Components, Boeing Description: This project will develop a robotic vision and visual tactile inspection system that automates high-resolution surface defect inspections of spacecraft components and commercial airplane fuselages. These technological improvements could improve the quality of aerospace inspections as well as replace manual operations, said the ARM Institute. The inspection system could also improve the reliability, maintainability, and readiness of aviation assets and ultimately to reduce the lifecycle costs of the fleet. AI and robotics would allow the system to standardize and learn inspection processes for many components in different industries, which…
