In accordance with its mission to transition proven advanced composites technology into the airlogistics support structure, the Air Force Advanced Composites Program Office has developed an in-house capability to design and prototype thermoplastic injection molded components. Candidate parts are chosen based on potential for improvement in performance, reliability, and reduced acquisition cost. Typical candidates include lightly-loaded light structures, cockpit parts, electronic enclosures, and ground support components. Engineers use integrated CAD/CAM equipment to design and analyze parts and manufacture the required injection molds. Prototype structures are then injection molded for evaluation using a 1500-ton injection molding machine.
