Proteus Space Technologies
Continuous manufacture of materials, shapes and forms
Company Overview
Proteus Space systems are based on innovative patent pending technologies for real time continuous manufacture of high temperature, thermoplastic multi material products, shapes and forms without autoclaves or mould use.
The novel approach of real-time embedded sensors, certified industry designs and simulation data with a design closed loop feed back when combined with 14 years of global research and development of Proteus global patents (pending) provide opportunities for new materials, smart products, services and business models for space, aerospace, marine oil and gas sectors.
Proteus Systems four Robotic cells
Cell 1
Embedded high temperature thermoplastic matrices, carbon, titanium, and natural fibres, metal, or core placement with dimensions up to five meters, unrestricted lengths at rates of up to 900 kg of fibre per hour.
Cell 2
Consolidation of exterior skins and internal structures with real-time identification, analysis and correction of voids, stress cracks, material crystallisation, shape, consolidation and fibre alignment.
Cell 3
Shape formation in keeping with CAD, design simulations, NDT with Real-time ms analysis and correction.
Cell 4
CNC activities with automated transfer to assembly.
Our quest
To unlock tomorrow’s innovations, enables products to be manufactured to exacting standards of consistency, quality and repeatability that hasn’t existed to this degree, until now.
Breaking Limitations, Redefining the Possible
Proteus advanced manufacturing solution allows engineers to create the impossible. The world’s innovative minds are engaged to overcome the most complex challenges to achieve new levels of performance and efficiency.
Building a future with Innovation
Our innovative approach is helping drive humanity’s ambitions in the development of advanced industry designs and their certifiable simulations of smart multi material products and in situ joints for space, aerospace, marine, oil and gas industries.
Proteus Research Focus
Further development of embedded Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) sensors for real-time measurements during manufacture of smart products and determination of product life cycle and recyclability. Product measurement in real-time (m/s) during manufacture for voids, stress cracks, material crystallisation, shape, consolidation and fibre alignment.
Vision, scanning, tracking and non destructive testing data (VSTN), real-time (ms) analysis and prediction (AI), for control of end effectors and robotic functions.

Game-changing Technology
Multi-material capabilities including colorful parts with functionally graded material.
Large-scale objects and parts manufacture with complex geometrics without human interfaces or moulds.
Real time (2/4ms) analysis and predictions for closed loop and random error control.
Integration of Vision, PDM, (product data management) and Deep learning. (A.I), predicts geometry of final object form based on CAD data.
External parts integration with 3D components.
Weight reduction of composite module of more then 40% compared to aluminum module.
Fully customisable products using 3D design graphics with 3D virtual experience.
Central global control room, neural network, vision, laser and scanning systems with deep learning algorithms.
Manufacturing times compared with 3D print and thermoset technologies are reduced from several months to weeks for existing aircraft/space/vessel structures.
Proteus Space business advantages
Reduced manufacturing times from days to hours. Fibre placement for thermoset around 35kg per hr compared to Proteus @ 450kg per hr.
A-I automated, no HMI, continuous manufacture, ability to view and correct in real- time defects, voids, and fibre stress.
No moulds, autoclave or tooling.
Improved strength to weight ratios, performance and final product cost.
Incorporation of insulation for temperatures up to 3500 C without incurring heat resistant tile weight penalties.
Inclusion of sensors during product manufacture to provide measurements of product performance from cradle to grave.
No known competitors.
Global patents (pending).
Proteus Business model
Although disruptive technologies have been applied to aluminium, stainless steel and thermoset composite, each material carries penalties when weight to strength ratios are considered. Stainless steel has the highest penalty with more than 50% higher in mass compared to aluminium.
For maximum strength/ weight, the alternative to thermoset composites is thermoplastic matrices which proteus space systems is well placed to reduce manufacturing costs, timelines and improve final product performance.
We Lease or license Proteus systems with key personnel for systems operational control to multiple industries that include aerospace, space, marine vessels, military, oil, gas and commercial structures for extreme product performance. All of this with positive environmental considerations.
