Tisics Limited

Metal powders with precise compositions and size profiles as low as 16µm are readily available at scale for use in additive manufacturing and metal injection moulding processes. TISICS have developed a novel process for mixing precise ratios of metal powders to produce bespoke combinations, then diffusion bonding the mixture via hot-isostatic pressing to ...

TARGET-H2, 'Technology advancement through research, build and test for liquid hydrogen integration', develops technologies for the storage and integration of liquid hydrogen on large aircraft, enabling zero carbon emission flight. Focusing on innovation, safety and route to certification the project will demonstrate project goals through a pyramid of tes...

ALG will develop and combine new designs, methodologies and technologies to accelerate and catalyse benefits for current and next generation of landing gears. A streamlined and rationalised product and assembly process will be developed alongside the MTC, SMI and Sheffield University. Design methodologies and certification approaches with Bristol and Cran...

TISICS has unique high performance metal matrix composite technology to combine its in-house UK silicon carbide fibre reinforcement in light weight titanium and aluminium composites. These technologies deliver 30% to 70% weight reductions in metallic systems for space, aerospace, transport and energy sectors. Weight reduction in these sectors leads to dir...

The UK is leading the world in its drive for Net-Zero Emissions by 2050\. Aviation remains critical to the UK for global commerce as well as maintaining its position as one of the largest aerospace industrial suppliers worldwide. To achieve the goals of net-zero emissions and industrial strength employing thousands of people in design, materials, manufact...

For aviation to achieve net zero emissions and meet rising demand for passenger and freight travel, aircraft efficiency must be significantly improved. Recent changes replacing aluminium with carbon fibre and steel with titanium have shown the impact advanced materials can have on fuel-burn and hence Green House Gas (GHG) emissions. However, there remain ...

THERMACH aims to develop and demonstrate a thermally assisted machining process to addresses the significant manufacturing challenges that industries face when producing components and products using advanced Metal Matrix Composites (MMC) and other difficult-to-cut materials. Within THERMACH, the UK partners will advance innovative analytical, software an...

The rapidly expanding need for global access to satellites is driven by direct to user access for communications, data transfer, navigation and earth observation throughout work and private life. Access beyond highly developed urban areas needs constellations of low orbit satellites. This requires a significant change in the space industry to build and de...

Ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) are a vital material for improvement of efficiency in future aircraft engines, enabling higher turbine temperatures and offering the advantages of significantly lower weight, lower cooling requirements and lower aircraft emissions. The rate of introduction of these new materials can be improved by raising the predictabilit...

The public concern for the environment has increased steadily over recent years and has become a major concern to governments world-wide. The UK has recognised the need to act on greenhouse gas emissions for many years though international treaties as well as national programmes and legislation. COVID-19 has not diminished the desire for a greener and cle...

The global need for greenhouse gas emission reduction is clearer than ever as a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic. Reductions in CO2 emissions are recordable and show that change is possible. The UK government has recognised that a post COVID-19 recovery should have 'green' initiatives at its core. But the impact of stopping global travel and international ...
