Coriolis Composites a global specialist in automated composite manufacturing solutions, has successfully installed an advanced Automated Fibre Placement (AFP) system at the manufacturing facility of Raphe mPhibr in Noida. The installation marks a significant step in strengthening indigenous advanced manufacturing capabilities for aerospace and defence applications in India.
The newly deployed AFP system will enable Raphe mPhibr to manufacture complex, high-performance composite structures with greater precision, repeatability, and production efficiency. Automated fibre placement technology is widely used in modern aerospace programmes for producing lightweight yet structurally robust components, supporting improved performance, reduced material waste, and consistent quality.
This installation aligns with Raphe mPhibr’s focus on developing next-generation aerospace and defence platforms using cutting-edge materials and processes. By integrating Coriolis Composites’ automation expertise into its production ecosystem, Raphe mPhibr is enhancing its ability to scale manufacturing while meeting stringent global standards for reliability and performance.
For Coriolis Composites, the project reinforces its growing footprint in India and its commitment to supporting local manufacturers with advanced automation solutions. The AFP system installed at the Noida facility is designed to handle complex geometries and demanding production requirements, offering flexibility for a wide range of composite applications.
The collaboration also supports India’s broader push toward self-reliance in high-technology manufacturing, particularly in aerospace and defence. By enabling in-house production of critical composite components, the facility is expected to reduce dependence on imports, shorten development cycles, and strengthen domestic supply chains.
With the AFP system now operational, Raphe mPhibr is well positioned to accelerate innovation, improve manufacturing throughput, and expand its capabilities across current and future programmes. The partnership between Coriolis Composites and Raphe mPhibr underscores the role of advanced automation in building a globally competitive, technology-driven manufacturing ecosystem in India.
