TOMSK, Aug 25 – RIA Tomsk.Tomsk Polytechnic University (TPU) will show the development at the international aerospace exhibition MAKS-2015 in the city of Zhukovsky situated near Moscow; in particular, the higher education institution will present specialized 3D-printer, a covering for windows of spaceships and a robot controlling quality of welded seams, it was reported by the press service of TPU.
The International Aerospace Salon (MAKS) is carried out since 1993 and is one of the world's largest events of such types. The main goal of the exhibition is demonstration of the Russian development in the field of aircraft. The total area of the exposition will exceed 28 thousand square meters this year. 584 Russian and 156 foreign corporations and companies from 30 states will take part in the salon.
"TPU will present the unique development for space and aviation branch at the international aerospace salon MAKS which will be opened in Zhukovsky near Moscow on Tuesday. The exposition of the higher education institution will settle down in the pavilion E3-12", – it is told in the message.
It is specified that the delegation of TPU will show to foreigners the products developed together with the Institute of physics and materials science of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Science. Among them are p the robotized complex checking welded seams. It renders thermovision, radiation, ultrasonic and other types of control and can be used both in space, and in other types of the industry.
It is added that Tomsk scientists will show also the nanocovering for windows of spaceships which is also developed within this cooperation. It considerably increases resistance of glass to blows of micrometeoroid. Besides, experts of TPU will show the 3D-printers which can create tools directly on ISS.
According to the higher education institution, TPU scientists will also present the development created at the Institute of nondestructive control of TPU: the smallest accelerator of electrons in the world – the betatron, the robotized module of an ultrasonic tomography, the thermal defectoscope for detection of water and the industrial tomograph.
