Project OPTIMA Launches Two-Year Initiative to Accelerate Thermoplastic Composite Production for Aerospace

Project OPTIMA aims to accelerate integrated thermoplastic composite production for aerospace

Executive Overview

CCP Gransden leads Project OPTIMA, a two-year UK composites supply chain initiative supported by the ATI SME Programme, to accelerate industrial adoption of thermoplastic materials in aerospace.

Manufacturing & Process Note

Thermoplastic composite aerospace programs demand tight control of tape impregnation consistency and fabric forming parameters; inline monitoring and digital product passports add traceability overhead that must be balanced against production rates.
