This funding opportunity supports projects focused on additive manufacturing of aircraft and engine structural components using high-performance polymers, composites, and metals. It aims to overcome challenges such as residual stresses, phase transformations, joining, defects, and reproducibility. Projects should address circular design, maintenance, repair, and recycling technologies to extend aircraft lifetime and improve sustainability, contributing to climate-neutral aviation in the EU and Associated Countries.
