Carbeon-HPSHigh Precision Structures
Carbeon-HPS is specifically tailored for high precision systems where co-efficient of thermal expansion of a component can highly influence the output of a system. Carbeon-HPS combines fiber architecture and design expertise to obtain near zero co-efficient of thermal expansion along with significant weight reduction.
