The Project COMPOSLEEVE aimed to find out a way to produce a stator sleeve for stator/rotor separation in electrical motor, which need to be cooled with aggressive fluids such as Skydrol, with high internal pressure and a temperature range that goes above 200ºC. For this application possible materials were composites with high Tg resins, such as BMI or Cyanate ester, reinforced with non conductive fibres.

Production method needs to be researched but Filament Winding seems to be the right candidate process. In particular the design and manufacturing of sleeve component was targeted. Thus the project looked for a cost effective way of producing these sleeve components in these composites material while ensuring to withstand with requirements. The aim was to get a cost effective way of manufacturing.
