Starting with SPARE – Clean Sky 2 project

Starting with SPARE, Clean Sky 2 project: Full-scale innovative composite pax and cargo floor grids for regional Aircraft Fuselage barrel on – ground demonstrators

On the 12^th October 2018, the kick-off meeting of the SPARE project will take place at LEONARDO’s premises (Topic Manager of the project, founding member of the Clean Sky JTI and member of Clean Sky 2 programme), with the presence of the involved partners: OMI S.r.l. (Coordinator of the project) and CETMA.

The overall objective of SPARE project is to manufacture full-scale pax and cargo floor grids for regional Aircraft Fuselage using carbon fibres reinforced composite with thermoplastic matrix. Innovative solutions (Progressive Roll Forming and Induction welding) for highly automated production will be used, thus ensuring weight saving and recurring cost reduction.
