Composites Automation Background: Composites have been a breakthrough material for GE’s aircraft engines and nacelles, wind blades and offshore riser pipes. With a higher strength-to-weight ratio than metal, composites translate into big savings on fuel and lower emissions. GE engineers are now utilizing robotic and automated fiber placement technology (AFP) along with data analytics to drive more efficient, cost effective and high quality manufacturing for both polymer matrix and ceramic matrix composites. Composites manufacturing is a complex process from laying up the raw material to final part formation. Today most of the parts are made using a hand layup process and integrated process analytics to enable the consistent production of high quality parts. GE has accumulated significant experience in manufacturing composites with complex shapes and sizes over the last three decades. As we look to provide even more benefit to our customers, the challenge today is finding ways to manufacture composite components faster and cheaper. This has led to automation. GE business applications: This year marks the 20th anniversary that GE’s composite fan blade was certified for the GE90 engine. This marked the first Aviation use of revolutionary composite fiber polymeric material on a jet engine’s front fan blade that stands as a unique feat today. Another first for jet engines will be the introduction of the Passport 20 fan case in 2016 for the Bombardier 7000 business jet, which will be manufactured using automated fiber placement (AFP). Soon to follow that will be some of GE’s nacelle components for the Boeing 747-8 and Airbus A320. AFP technology allows design flexibility, consistent ply placement/compaction resulting in high quality, along with substantial savings in materials and labor. With complex shapes and multi-material systems, GE is paving the way for robotic automation through its use of technologies ranging from pick and place to filament winding and fiber placement. The GE Store difference: The experience with automation on engine components provides the technical confidence and knowledge that it can be applied to wind blades, nacelle components and in the future to composite flexible riser pipes for oil and gas production. Phosphors Background: Light emitting diodes, or LEDs, are transforming the lighting industry with ever higher efficiency and functionality. But even with LEDs, lighting designers face a choice: Enhanced efficiency or enhanced color quality? Customers, of course, want both. The key, GE scientists believed, resided in developing better materials to convert blue LED light into red light. With the new TriGain* phosphor system, material scientists and chemists at GE Global Research and GE Lighting have delivered a novel solution that overcomes this trade-off to make lighting systems that lead the industry in both efficiency and color quality. GE Lighting has partnered with Nichia to integrate LEDs with the TriGain phosphor system into products with high efficiency, color quality, and simpler system designs. Beyond lighting, the TriGain phosphor system is now also used in LCD display for phones, tablets, and TVs to give similar advantages in color, efficiency, and system design. GE business applications: The TriGain phosphor system is enabling many exciting new products for GE Lighting and GE Ventures including: • Lightingfixturesforretailandcommercialcustomersrequiring high color quality • Replacementlampsforretail,commercial,andconsumercustomers • LicensingTriGaintechnologyfordisplayapplications • TriGainphosphormaterialstodesignatedlicenseesfordisplayusage The GE Store difference: The development of optical materials like phosphors is a critical expertise at GE Global Research that impacts multiple GE businesses. Earlier work on GE Lighting phosphors led to the discovery of a new scintillating material for GE Healthcare that was introduced in 2009 in the Discovery CT750, a high-definition Computed Tomography (CT) scanner. This new material enabled a CT scanner that produced images 100 times faster while also improving the image quality of diagnostic images. Similarly, the collaboration between GE Ventures, GE Lighting, and GE Global Research has accelerated the commercialization of TriGain LED phosphors into both lighting and consumer display markets. 8PDF Image | GE Store for Technology
