Aerospace Textile Applications
Technical fabric products are employed throughout the aerospace
industry for both ground support and flight hardware. There are both
fabric products that have been traditionally used, and for which a
supplier base is somewhat established, and fabric products which
are being adapted to new requirements and modification of existing
applications. The role of those serving aerospace will need to be a
collaborative one in applying their knowledge of the uses of fabrics
to those evolving requirements.
Moderator: Bud Weisbart, AR Tech
2:45 pm – 4:15 pm
Aplicaciones de textiles Aeroespaciales
Se emplean productos de textiles técnicos a lo largo de la industria

para los cuales se ha establecido algo de una base de proveedores
y productos de telas que se están adaptando a requisitos nuevos y
modificaciones de aplicaciones que ya existen. El papel de los que
proveen servicios a las industrias aeroespaciales va requerir ser uno
colaborativo en aplicando su conocimiento de los usos de las telas
para esos requisitos que están evolucionando.
