The \u00a314.1m research and development project, funded through the ATI Programme, will explore how AI and other technologies can drive simulations and modelling that could lead to accelerated innovation cycles. It will also explore opportunities to increase efficiency, reduce Scope 3 emissions, and help address supply chain challenges through the production of additively manufactured qualified aerospace parts.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Project STRATA will focus on the development of five innovative components within Environmental Control Systems (ECS) and Cabin Pressure Control Systems (CPCS) aboard aircraft. These complex technologies manage the cabin environment and ensure flyer safety and comfort. STRATA will also advance thermal management technology for next-generation aircraft that is aimed at reducing the amount of energy required for heating and cooling of aircraft, as well as fuel consumption, in line with STRATA\u2019s goal of supporting net-zero aerospace manufacturing and broader environmental objectives.<\/p>\n<div class=\"widget-layout related-content-also-read-box my-3\">\n<h4 class=\"mb-0\">Also Read: How Can Component Manufacturers Support Innovation in our NewSpace Industry?<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThis is great news for Honeywell, and a good example of how government and business can work together to help keep the UK at the forefront of innovation in our world-class aerospace sector. We\u2019re doubling down on this support through our modern Industrial Strategy \u2013 giving business the confidence it needs to invest in UK advanced manufacturing and delivering on our Plan for Change,\u201d said <strong>Sarah Jones, Minister of State for Industry<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cAdditive manufacturing has the ability to deliver both high-performance optimised components and the consolidation of complex assemblies into a single part, which can lower manufacturing costs, reduce waste, and deliver new efficiencies in manufacturing,\u201d said <strong>Jacqueline Castle<\/strong><strong>, Chief Technology Officer, Aerospace Technology Institute<\/strong>. \u201cSTRATA will bring this capability to critical aircraft systems, utilising advanced simulation technologies to transform the design process.
