Cabin Interiors:
- Flame-resistant Ultem™ Resin And Sheet
As the demand to meet the challenges of today’s commercial and military aircraft industries grows, so does the list of game-changing solutions from SABIC. Aircraft designers and OEMs around the world are challenged to create compliant products that can withstand heat without sacrificing stability and esthetic flexibility. SABIC’s line of ULTEM resins offers compliant solutions for precise performance needs.
ULTEM 9085 resin is a next generation product that goes beyond compliance with better flow, improved impact performance, lower processing temperatures and a wider processing window – all while maintaining its high modulus and heat resistance. For customers, that means key advantages like thinner walls, lower system cost and lighter weight.
- Cabin Interior Case Studies
PECO Manufacturing used an integrated structural design which consolidated parts and eliminated a main frame requirement in order to reduce the footprint of its passenger service unit. ULTEM™ 9085 resin’s improved flow enabled thinner walls, and the result was a 30% smaller unit with considerable weight savings, which provided more headroom to accommodate the new platform design.
Hidden Spaces Case Studies
Exciting 3D printing technology allows design and manufacturing engineers to produce fully functional parts that can be used for either advanced prototypes or end use – without the cost or lead time of traditional tooling. The additive manufacturing process uses SABIC’s ULTEM 9085 resin to produce small production runs, building parts layer by layer from the bottom up.
Fig: Taylor-Deal Aviation used filaments made from ULTEMTM 9085 resin and additive manufacturing technology to create an air duct offering light weight, flame resistance and toughness.
- Innovation Opportunities in Aircraft Interior
Innovation + design opportunities push the boundaries on design creativity, weight-out and system cost reduction:
- Sidewalls And Partitions
- Ceiling Panels
- Overhead Storage Bins
- Flooring
- Galley Carts
- 3D Printed Seat
Additive Manufacturing And Rapid Prototyping
ULTEM™ 9085 resin is a proven performer in additive manufacturing. Strong, lightweight, flame-retardant ULTEM 9085 resin helps to address one of the biggest challenges for aircraft OEMs – the ability to produce small volume parts, even those with complex geometries, quickly and cost-effectively. Additive manufacturing creates three- dimensional parts directly from computer aided design files, layer-by-layer, for use in design verification, prototyping, development and manufacturing.
Inspiring Design
Airlines want to create a better experience and comfort for passengers while reducing weight and fuel costs. SABIC’s 3D-printed prototype extends what’s possible in aircraft interiors. Using an ergonomically advanced design licensed from Studio Gavari, SABIC printed an airplane seat using filaments made from ULTEM 9085 resin. This material is highly compatible with 3D printing and meets the aircraft industry’s strict flame, smoke and toxicity demands. Using 3D printing also enabled the design to be rapidly prototyped and produced with fewer than 15 components compared to the 150-200 in a typical airplane seat.
