Within the ARTES Megaconstellation Project, processes for manufacturing Multi-layer insulations for high-volume projects were developed and improved.
The analysis of the existing process drew up the following sub-processes to carrying the main potentials for improvement:
Analysing possible cutting techniques of foils and layup packages with regard to applicability, costs AND a fast introduction of the chosen processes are crucial for efficient serial production.
With the introduction of new and improved processes for mass production, the well-known quality of RUAG MLI can be maintained without any negative effect on cost or time. The full potential of serial production can be taken advantage of.
The processes for blanket cutting, positioning, inspection and packing have been developed and improved from feasibility study to operational and are currently being used for manufacturing of the first ship sets of OneWeb MLI.
Project is Completed.
