Article Description

Foam core sandwich structures exhibit mechanical performance comparable to conventional materials at much lower weight and potentially lower cost. An advanced production technique for manufacturing foam core sandwich structures with high temperature constituents is introduced. Skin and core are the main components of a sandwich beam. The various manufacturing processes are available to join skins and core to make a sandwich construction. Here, skins are developed on the surface of the core using air plasma spray technique. It is a rapid technique which eliminates joining process. There will be a good adhesion between skin and core due to mechanical and metallurgical bonds. This technique has the capability to be put into series production. © 2009 Springer-Verlag London Limited.
