**COBra: Driving a Green Revolution with Low-Cost Composite Brakes** The COBra (Composite Optimised Brakes) project is set to revolutionize the Electric Vehicle (EV) market by addressing critical challenges in environmental sustainability and vehicle performance through disruptive advanced materials innovation. Led by Carbon ThreeSixty (CTS), this feasibi...

HiRACOS (High Rate Aerospace Composite Optimised Structures) addresses the challenge of high-rate composite technologies for Aerospace to allow the rate increase in Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) and Narrowbody markets. These technologies will then be applied in two technology demonstrators, i.e., an AAM composite rotor blade and a composite nose wheel for t...

New sustainable innovations are necessary to meet the evolving and critical needs of Co2e reduction targets for the aerospace sector and to deliver costs that remain competitive, maintain and grow capability and onshore work to the UK. Manufacturing carbon composite airframe structure today demands a high level of manual labour involving many separate com...

**M-LightEn** (Monocoque Architecture -- Lightweight and Low Embedded Energy) is an industrial research project between the Gordon Murray Group, Constellium UK, Brunel University and Carbon ThreeSixty for the development and 'productionisation' of a ultra-lightweight low CO2 footprint monocoque architecture for future vehicles. It develops new lightweight...

SCALE-UP addresses the challenge of high-volume sustainable lightweighting in Battery electric Vehicle using composite materials and delivering four innovations. * A lighter, sustainable/lower-CO2e, affordable door, as alternative to aluminium benchmark, anticipating future legislation and decarbonisation of aluminium. * A high-volume, affordable, sustain...

Rotor blades and propellers are an established means of providing lift/propulsion for various aircraft types. As the AAM (Advanced Air Mobility) market expands, the demand for lightweight rotor blades is predicted to increase exponentially, particularly for use on a new breed of e-VTOL full electric urban & sub-regional based vertical take off and landing...

Magnomatics will design, build and test lightweight propulsion motors suitable for the rapidly growing urban aero mobility sector. These motors will be based upon Magnomatics' patented Pseudo Direct Drive (PDD(r)) technology. The technology has been identified by NASA as being "roughly two times greater than the specific torque expected of a direct drive ...

GTTC-Wheel will see Carbon ThreeSixty, in partnership with the National Composites Centre and in collaboration with Leonardo Helicopters, leverage their combined expertise to design, develop, characterise and manufacture a revolutionary, ultra-low mass proof of concept CFRP wheel for rotorcraft applications. This includes developing the optimum route-to-m...
