CRP Technology is set to make its exhibitor debut at Space Tech Expo Europe 2024. 

The event, which is one of the key gatherings in the space industry, will take place from November 19–21 in Bremen, Germany. Visit CRP Technology at Booth B54 to explore cutting-edge 3D printed solutions.

CRP Technology will be showcasing high-performance components manufactured for key sector customers using their renowned Carbon or Glass fiber-reinforced Windform composite materials and produced with Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) 3D printing technology. These solutions have been rigorously tested in real-world conditions and are making an impact in the aerospace sector.

Visitors will discover a selection of 3D printed structural components that are lightweight yet robust, ideal for both manned and unmanned space missions. The booth will feature drone parts, including frames and aerodynamic structures for high-performance UAVs; as well as space-grade prototypes for satellites and exploration missions that highlight the precision and strength of the SLS process paired with Windform composites.

Windform materials are rigorously tested to meet aerospace industry standards. These tests include outgassing for vacuum stability, thermal resistance for fluctuating temperatures, and UV stability for prolonged exposure to sunlight—vital for components used in space. Windform also withstands chemical exposure and mechanical wear, while its dielectric properties provide essential insulation for sensitive electronics in satellite and communication systems.

Visitors to the CRP Technology booth will see the latest addition to CRP’s post-processing capabilities: vapor smoothing. This advanced technique enhances the surface quality of Windform parts, making them smoother and more resistant to environmental factors, thus improving performance in extreme conditions. When combined with manual finishing, CRP Technology’s globally renowned process, results are even more exceptional.

CRP Technology also offers CNC machining to further refine 3D printed components in Windform, ensuring tight tolerances, dimensional accuracy, and high-quality surface finishes. Manual finishing is additionally applied to enhance both aesthetic and functional details, tailoring parts for the specific demands of the aerospace sector.

As a pioneering force in additive manufacturing, CRP Technology has played a critical role in numerous successful aerospace projects. This event provides a unique opportunity for engineers, designers, and decision-makers to experience first-hand how Windform materials enhance production capabilities and accelerate innovation cycles.

Join CRP at Space Tech Expo Europe 2024, Booth B54, to explore the future of space technology. CRP Technology’s team of experts will be available to discuss customized solutions for aerospace and space challenges, offering guidance on material selection, design optimization, and rapid prototyping.
