SHARK.AERO: Where 3D Printing Meets Aviation
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 лип 2023
- SHARK.AERO, a Czech-Slovak company, manufactures ultralight aircraft using carbon composite and 3D printing technology. Their planes are known for providing a unique flying experience and have been used for impressive feats, including the youngest woman's solo flight around the world. 3D printing has streamlined their production process, and the company continues to push boundaries in aviation and innovation.

I love flying...🛩
Thats why we love PRUSA 😍
Any FDM 3D printed can do this, lol
Very impressive !!
Awesome!
Do you not use respirator masks when working with composites??
No need. But all employees are tested for allergies before taking the job.
@@sharkairplaneSir., I don't want to seem like an internet expert, but please read this comment. The comment from @tramsgar is very important. There are some things that despite not causing allergies can be very harmful. Think of this: even though no one is allergic to lead, people who worked at lead processing factories often suffered from plumbism due to poor ventilation and improper use of respirator masks. Composite materials, specially the fibers in the glass fiber composites are extremely harmful to the operator's lungs. When sanding, micro particles of these fibers are projected upwards to the air and if no respiratory equipment is used, operator's can easily inhale the particles. Once again, I am not trying to be an internet expert but please don't take safety lightly.
They are immortal, safety and common sense does not apply to them.
@@joaocunha7595You are right. I am producing composites and managing composite production for more than 40 years. Now Shark. At laminating is the most important to protect skin, wearing gloves, as repeated contact with epoxy can result in alergy. Sensitivity of different people is different, about 10% can’t work with epoxy at all. We test this before we hire. Anybody who don ‘t respect basic rules for protecting skin will get allergy. I have deep experience with this, as thousands of employees went through my hands. At laminating at some points are important glasses, and at few points respirators -fillers mixing. Next critical exposure is dust, at trimming and sanding. There is most important respirators or heavier dust mask, sometimes glasses and textile gloves, noise dampening headsets. At painthop of course chemical masks or helmet feeded with fresh air, repirators or dust masks at dry grinding.
Very nice to see the advantage of 3d printing. Only curious how they print ABS and Nylon because the printers seems to be in an hall without an enclosure. I love Prusa Printers

Cool looking airplane
Wonder where PC CF could take them
When will buy one Prusa? Damn the price is always heighter, sob 😢
How much _does_ the plane cost? The websites all seem tight-lipped...
@@AdityaMehendale starting from ~150k €
So, whole plane dangles on parachute ?
That’s right
Same idea as when a lander (like crew dragon) comes back from space. Those parachute cords are really strong!
i lik u
okok, as a former Airline pilot looking for a new "hobby/lerning new skill", now I'm sold, Please take my money and send me a Prusa 3D Printer :)
I hope this "pushing the boundries of aviation" doesn't end up like Titan did.
Fortunately the aerospace field as a lot more regulation associated with it.
Everything is thoroughly tested according to the certification basis under supervision of authorities. Modern aircraft engines also use metal 3D printed parts. No worries. 😉
I wonder how they could use this tech in Ukraine to assist their drone tech
