White Paper: Reducing Life Cycle Costs with Reliable Airframe Microwave Assemblies
White Papers, United States
Modern civil and military aircraft depend on quality microwave assemblies like those produced by W. L. Gore & Associates for reliable performance. Yet the challenges of installation in tight airframe environments can often degrade lower-quality cables, requiring replacement long before the expected end of life. In Gore’s White Paper: Reducing Life Cycle Costs with Reliable Airframe Microwave Assemblies, we take a closer look at how higher-quality cable assemblies deliver lower costs, greater productivity, and a host of additional benefits.
About the White Paper
While all aircraft cable assemblies face harsh temperature and pressure conditions in aerospace environments, many fail to pass an initial challenge: installation. A recent survey revealed that 64% of manufacturers expect assemblies to fail before the end of an aircraft’s service life. Once degraded by the rigors of routing in tight spaces, damage due to bending, abrasions, and torque result in immediate replacement, even when cables meet all applicable standards.
That’s why Gore submits their GORE-FLIGHT® Microwave Assemblies, 6 Series to rigorous testing under real-world conditions using an innovative installation simulator to ensure the durability needed to withstand installation and demanding civil and defense aerospace environments. White Paper: Reducing Life Cycle Costs with Reliable Airframe Microwave Assemblies takes a closer look at the true costs of cable failure at installation, Gore’s testing protocols, and the value of choosing cables tested against realistic conditions.
