AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The complex shape and material selection limitations of the tail reducer's casing result in high mass and difficult processing, which is not conducive to the design of a lightweight transmission system.

Method used

The structure combines a skeleton body with a composite material. The skeleton body is made of metal, and the composite material is filled into the cavity through the first through hole. The liner is made of metal and is embedded in the inner circumference of the skeleton connector. The structure is manufactured using 3D printing and thermoplastic molding technology.

Benefits of technology

The weight of the casing was reduced by 10%-17% while meeting the rigidity and strength requirements, thus improving the flight performance of the aircraft.
