TEW Composites eBook

Aerospace composites manufacturers face numerous challenges including:

  • Accuracy and reliability of thermocouple performance.

  • Lost time and increased scrap due to poor junctions
  • Loose connectors and leaks under the bag.
  • Used thermocouples must be thrown away or undergo time-consuming and expensive refurbishing and testing prior to new cures.
  • BAC 5621 compliance and ease of traceability for NADCAP audits.

TE Wire’s AccuClave® Series Thermocouples provides the solution. Our patented pre-made thermocouple assemblies are designed for demanding high temperature aerospace autoclave applications. In use across the industry, AccuClave Series products deliver a proven ROI in labor savings, ease of installation/replacement, simple TRAC traceability and reduced non-conformances.
