NASA and its partners in the Advanced Composites Consortium<\/a> gathered at the agency\u2019s Langley Research Center<\/a> in Hampton, Virginia, on April 29-May 1, 2025.<\/p>\n

Team members from 22 organizations in the public-private partnership are collaborating to increase the production rate of composite aircraft, reduce costs, and improve performance.<\/p>\n

The team discussed results from the Technology Development Phase of NASA\u2019s Hi-Rate Composite Aircraft Manufacturing<\/a> (HiCAM) project. <\/p>\n

The project is evaluating concepts and competing approaches at the subcomponent scale to determine technologies with the greatest impact on manufacturing rate and cost. The most promising concepts will be demonstrated on full-scale wing and fuselage components during the next four years. <\/p>\n

Through collaboration and shared investment, the team is increasing the likelihood of technologies being adopted for next-generation transports, ultimately lowering costs for operators and improving the U.S. competitive advantage in the commercial aircraft industry.<\/p>\n
