Development of Exact's Thin-Film Ceramic Coating Material

Exact已经确定了一种目前在其他行业中使用的材料涂层，该涂层将在航空航天工业中应用。通过与利益相关者的早期讨论，已经达成一致，如果这种涂层通过了所需的工业测试，那么它就具有商业优势。该项目旨在通过开发具有上级机械和化学性能的部件，为航空航天工业开发更长时间使用的产品。利用这种新工艺开发组件将：\* 改善随时间推移的磨损\* 提供上级的耐磨性、耐腐蚀性，和耐化学性 * 提高强度和耐用性这也表明，引入这种材料涂层是航空航天工业的一个创新视角。该项目将寻求支持Exact试验组件的实验开发过程，这种新涂层作为替代产品类型，其核心商业模式。为了完成该项目，Exact将购买样品材料和涂层，分析组件上涂层的应用，并计划和进行所需的行业测试，以确保其性能等于或超过当前的涂层方法。这将验证该涂层在航空航天部件上的使用。在测试和认证成功后，Exact将能够将其商业化，作为其核心业务的补充。这涉及6项工业测试，将对应用该涂层的样品组件进行测试。通过完成该项目所提供的援助将支持内部劳动力成本，外部咨询涂层和样品材料成本，这些成本需要开发样品，管理所需的机械和化学测试以及验证航空航天工业的结果。该项目的产出是验证航空航天领域革命性的涂层材料。这将直接与零碳目标的战略重点保持一致，通过减少碳中性飞机部件的重量。这种涂层的特性将提高部件的使用寿命，同时由于与喷漆或粉末涂层部件相比，材料密度低得多，从而大大减轻部件的重量。

Exact have identified a type of material coating that is currently used within other industries that would have applications within the aerospace industry. Through early discussions with stakeholders, there has been an agreement that if this coating passes the industrial testing required, then it has a commercial advantage.This project is aimed at developing a longer in use product for the aerospace industry through developing components with superior mechanical and chemical properties compared to components developed with coatings currently. Developing components utilising this new process will;\*Improve the wear and tear over time\*Provide superior abrasion, corrosion, and chemical resistance\*Improve strength and durabilityThis also indicates that introducing this material coating is an innovative perspective within the aerospace industry.This project will look to support the the experimental development process of Exact trialling components with this new coating as an alternative type of product to their core business model. To complete this project, Exact will purchase sample material and coating, analyse the application of the coating on components and plan and undertake required industry testing to ensure that their performance equals or exceeds that of current coating methods. This will validate the use of this coating on aerospace components. Post successful testing and certification, Exact will be enabled to commercialise this as an addition to their core business.This involves 6 industrial tests that will be carried out on sample components with this coating applied. The assistance provided by fulfilling this project will support the internal labour costs, external consulting coats and sample material costs required to develop samples, administer the required mechanical and chemical testing and validation of the results for the aerospace industry.The output of the project is validation of coating material revolutionised within the aerospace. This will directly align to the strategic focus of destination zero through weight reduction of components for carbon neutral aircrafts.The properties of this coating will improve the operating life of the components whilst dramatically reducing the weight of the components through due to a much lower material density opposed to painting or powder-coating components.
