Constellium to present new aerospace innovations at Paris Air Show

Constellium N.V. will present its wide range of aerospace solutions, including the latest innovations in its Airware technology, at the International Paris Air Show from June 19 to 23, 2017.  Constellium will also reveal an interactive and immersive experience of its aerospace offerings with its new Virtual Reality module and 3-D app.

A game changer in the aerospace aluminium market, Constellium’s Airware solution provides high performance aluminium-lithium alloys tailored for aircraft and spacecraft structures. Airware lower density and improved material properties enable optimized structural designs, leading to an overall weight reduction and decrease in CO2 emissions.

No fewer than seven different Airware alloys are on planes flying today. Current applications include internal wing structures and fuselage of the Airbus A350 XWB, the fuselage of the Bombardier C Series, the NASA Orion Crew Module, and the SpaceX Falcon 9 Launcher. 

Building on its success, Constellium is expanding the Airware portfolio with new additions:

• Airware 2074, a high performance external fuselage sheet product offering a combination of low density and very high damage tolerance properties.
• A new Airware external fuselage sheet product with very low density enabling direct substitution of current skin materials.
• Airware 2065 and 2076, the latest high performance extruded solutions delivering improved performance for wing and fuselage structures.
