Addressing global challenges such as emission-free aviation, the energy transition, and the decarbonization of industry requires, among other things, new material solutions\u2014particularly in the field of high-temperature lightweight construction. Ceramic matrix composites (CMCs), with their superior temperature resistance and low weight, offer ideal alternatives to metals and carbon fiber\u2013reinforced plastics (CFRP). One of the main reasons why this class of materials has so far struggled to move from research into widespread industrial application is the lack of adequate manufacturing technologies. The DLR spin-off project FOX Composites<\/strong> has therefore developed a novel manufacturing process that, for the first time, enables the reproducible, automatable, and scalable production of CMC components. This paves the way for broad industrial use. Key application areas are found particularly in high-temperature lightweight construction, such as in renewable energy generation, the aviation industry, defense technology, and especially the chemical industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

F\u00fcr uns von FOX Composites war es der erste Accelerator und wir k\u00f6nnten uns keinen besseren ausgesucht haben. Die unglaublich lehrreichen Expertentalks zu allen relevanten Themen f\u00fcr Start-Ups, das tolle Team hinter dem Programm und vor allem das nachhaltige, gro\u00dfe Netzwerk waren f\u00fcr uns die gr\u00f6\u00dften Benefits. Der Demo Day war ein tolles Finale und f\u00fcr uns ein richtiger Booster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
