Solving Aerospace Weight and Prototype Bottlenecks with Xycomp® Thermoplastic Composite Components Webinar

Abstract: Aerospace engineers are under constant pressure to reduce weight without sacrificing strength, stiffness, durability, or qualification confidence—while also shortening the time it takes to move from design concept to functional prototype. This webinar addresses those two critical pain points through the lens of Xycomp® DLF™ thermoplastic composite components and Greene Tweed’s rapid prototyping process.

Attendees will learn how Xycomp® enables metal replacement in demanding aerospace applications by delivering high-performance thermoplastic composite solutions that support meaningful weight reduction, robust mechanical performance, and expanded design flexibility. The session will also show how rapid prototype tooling, machined versus net-molded feature strategies, and parallelized part, tool, and fixture development can reduce prototype lead times by nearly 50%, lower upfront tooling investment, and give engineers earlier access to production-representative parts for testing and design iteration.

Designed for a highly technical aerospace audience, the webinar will provide a practical framework for identifying lightweighting opportunities, validating composite metal-replacement candidates, and accelerating the path from design intent to real-world test data.
