Acoustic Attenuation

High-density attenuation up to 145 dB overall sound pressure level (OASPL)

Thickness Configurations

Customizable profile ranges from 1.5 mm to 25 mm micro-structures

Structural Seals & Gaskets

High-temperature elastomeric silicone and metal O-rings for hermetic sealing

Outgassing Compliance

NASA SP-R-0022A Standard; TML ≤ 1.0%, CVCM ≤ 0.1%

Corrosion / Oxidation Resistance

Passivated surfaces resistant to atomic oxygen (AO), UV degradation, and salt spray

Weight-to-Strength Optimization

High specific strength optimized via advanced lightweight honeycomb geometries

Machining Tolerances

Ultra-precise CNC fabrication down to ±0.025 mm (±0.001 inches)

Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)

Radiographic (X-ray), Ultrasonic (UT), and Liquid Penetrant inspection verified

Quality Certifications

Fully traceable manufacturing aligned with AS9100 Rev D and ISO 9001:2015 standards

Technical Advantages

Our enclosures leverage advanced, multi-layer insulation matrices that achieve unparalleled thermal resistance with minimal mass penalties, optimizing total payload capacity. Through strict DFM-driven CNC machining and laser-welding protocols, Frigate guarantees zero structural deformation under extreme, rapid thermomechanical stress cycles.

Having Doubts? Our FAQ

How does Frigate optimize the weight of thermal shielding enclosures without compromising structural integrity?

We utilize high-strength-to-weight ratio aerospace alloys, such as Titanium Grade 5 and specialized aluminum lithium, combined with internal honeycomb cores or micro-porous aerogels. This allows us to minimize wall thickness and overall mass while meeting rigorous load-bearing and vibration requirements.

Can you manufacture custom shapes and internal configurations based on existing CAD models?

Yes. Frigate specializes in complex, custom-engineered geometries. Our engineering team conducts comprehensive Design for Manufacturing (DFM) reviews on your 3D CAD files to optimize component placement, integrated mounting tabs, Feed-through ports, and sealing channels.

What outgassing and environmental standards do your aerospace enclosures adhere to?

All insulation and sealing materials are verified to meet NASA SP-R-0022A and ESA PSS-014-702 standards, ensuring Total Mass Loss (TML) is below 1% and Collected Volatile Condensable Material (CVCM) is below 0.1%. Enclosures also undergo testing to comply with MIL-STD-810H environmental constraints.

What raw material traceability and quality documentation do you provide upon delivery?

Every shipment includes a comprehensive aerospace-grade documentation package. This consists of Mill Material Test Reports (MTRs), Certificate of Conformance (CoC), AS9102 First Article Inspection Reports (FAIR), and detailed non-destructive testing (NDT) records such as ultrasonic or X-ray reports.

How do you manage lead times for high-priority or Aircraft on Ground (AOG) situations?

For critical timelines, Frigate maintains dedicated emergency manufacturing capacity. By utilizing pre-vetted raw material stock and prioritizing fast-tracked CNC programming and NDT execution, we can compress standard production timelines down to 2–3 weeks for qualified custom orders.
