Aluminum Honeycomb Sandwich Panels by ACP Composites

ACP Composites' AL-X Aluminum Honeycomb Sandwich Panels are engineered to endure Earth's atmosphere, enabling unmanned satellites to orbit successfully. Crafted from materials with proven flight heritage and precision processing, these panels serve structural roles, shielding, and protection in diverse satellite designs. They can be tailored to withstand varied launch loads and accommodate subsystem attachments. Featuring aerospace-grade HexWeb CR III Aluminum Honeycomb Core, these panels boast excellent corrosion resistance, high strength-to-weight ratio, and fatigue resistance. The HexWeb CR III coating provides superior protection against corrosive environments, forming a stable, adherent bond. The aluminum face sheet, bonded to the core with low-outgassing adhesive, offers excellent thermal conductivity for heat dissipation, simplifies design under complex loads, and shields electronics from radiation. Aluminum's ductility enhances impact resistance, and its ease of manufacturing and repair makes it ideal for missions prioritizing reliability and affordability. Customization options include specific panel designs, mission profiles, alloys (5052, 5056), and post-processing services. Compliant with NASA outgassing requirements, these panels offer custom core thicknesses, high-volume processing, and customer-owned material acceptance.
