Magellan - Metallic Honeycomb
Magellan designs and manufactures metallic laser welded and resistance welded honeycomb using stable and repeatable processes and has unique attributes for higher temperature applications where glued honeycomb structures cannot perform. The products are typically produced in materials suitable for higher temperatures such as titanium, Inconel, stainless steel, and exotic alloys where strength and temperature are both key design considerations.
The key technological advantages of laser welded honeycomb include weight savings, higher node strength, and a wide range of design flexibility including aluminum laser welded honeycomb.
Honeycomb can be produced with many different controllable features, including:
Type
- Expanded core
- Variable cell honeycomb
- Perforated
- Slotted
- Energy absorbing
- Angled
- Corrugated
Cell Shape
- Square
- Hexagonal
- Beneflex™
Proprietary honeycomb pattern known for its “flex” capabilities without heat (cold state) and scalable cell size from 1/8” cell to any size required in increments of 0.002” without tooling change.
