HIGHPSLEEVE · Implementation carbon fibres for rotor of high speed rotating electric machine

The Project HIGHPSLEEVE is aimed to find out a way to produce a fixation component for electrical motor, which turns at 50.000 RPM and works in -50 to 250ºC, of an aircraft by using composites materials with high Tg, such as BMI or Cyanate ester, reinforced with carbon fibers. Production method needs to be researched but Filament Winding seems to be the right candidate process. In particular the design and manufacturing of sleeve component is targeted. The project will look for a cost effective way of producing these fixation components in these composites material while ensuring to withstand with requirements. The aim is to get a cost effective way of manufacturing.
