Alternatively, newer aircrafts use what is called Electrically Conductive Expanded Metal Foil, or carbon fibre reinforced plastic, which is part of the material layers used to make the outer skin ...

VFR's Bulk Metal Foil current sense resistors offer a four-terminal Kelvin connection for increased accuracy. They feature an ultra-low TCR of ±0.05 ppm/°C typical (0°C to +60°C) and ±0.2 ppm/°C ...

To weld the blade halves together, scientists sandwich a conductive material—such as an expanded metal foil or carbon fiber—between the two blade components and attach a wire to a power source. This ...

Successful thermal welding required a conductive material such as carbon fiber or expanded metal foil to be placed between two halves of the blade. A wire attaching the conductive material to a power ...

Qatar Airways has highlighted Airbus’s introduction of an alternative to expanded copper foil for lightning protection on the A350, but the airframer insists it is not a reaction to its skin ...
