ATG Europe is a Dutch innovation driven service provider with a strong heritage in space and high tech industries. ATG Europe has patented a wide cost-efficient manufacturing methodology for fiber placed grid-stiffened structures that allows manufacturing high quality, complex integrated grid stiffened composite products in a one-shot process, representing a significant overall weight and cost saving for aerospace structures. It can be used in many applications that require low weight and high stiffness/stability both on ground as well as in air (e.g. wind turbines, airplanes and ship masts, etc.).
- Low weight and high stiffness/stability.
- Mass savings up to 60%.
- Cost savings up to 30% (compared to sandwich panels technology).
- One shot manufacturing process reducing lead time and cost.
- Superior mechanical, thermal and the thermo-elastic performance.
- Transitions from the structure to (metal) surroundings designed and optimized (as part of patent).
- Great accessibility due to open structure.
