Cobra international will focus on the diversification of entering the new composite market recently at JEC world 2022, with exhibits ranging from vertical take-off and landing UAVs to carbon fiber prostheses. As it continues to promote more sustainable manufacturing and products, cobra will also show how it can work with automotive and water sports customers to further improve the sustainability of products in these industries.
Recently, cobra will show the wings of swiftlet UAV at what is said to be the world's largest driverless vehicle system event held in Florida. This compact tactical fixed wing UAV platform, with a wingspan of 5.5 meters, was developed by the Royal Thai Air Force and the national science and Technology Development Agency (NSTDA of Thailand) for investigation, monitoring and search and rescue operations. Cobra manufactured a 32 kilogram (about 70.5 pounds) swiftlet composite fuselage, with CNC cut carbon sandwich internal structure and PVC foam sandwich skin, and advanced glass fiber and carbon fiber reinforced materials.
Sustainability has always been the focus of CAC of Cobra ports and Cobra automotive business. At JEC world 2022, cobra will showcase an increasing number of materials and process options it has developed, including Bio resins and natural fiber reinforced materials, as well as more traditional carbon fiber components.
