Based on its long-lasting heritage on both rocket propulsion technologies and reentry vehicle, ArianeGroup developed since few years a novel family of 3D and versatile textile architecture. Once densified, the composite feature not only thermal and ablative properties but also thermostructural capabilities. Indeed, the 3D needled fibrous preform bring mechanical strength and can be either densified by chemical vapor infiltration or different resin infusions. The developed specific robotized technology is also offering the capability to manufactured monolithic single piece heatshield removing any seams and the difficulties to qualify these weak points. This novel TPS concept will be tested on board the SCX-01 high speed reentry demonstrator probe and Ariane 6 maiden flight.
