The time has come to change the aircraft fuel cell manufacturing industry. It is rare to find an industry as large as this that has managed to continue existence without any significant manufacturing technique changes since the original fuel cells were made decades ago. Some of the materials have changed, but the fact that fuel cells are still manufactured by hand remains the same. This method is slow, inconsistent, and expensive. We have developed a fuel cell manufacturing technique that will produce tanks in hours, not days, not months, and especially not years. This technique takes the handwork out of the equation. Our process produces fuel cell after fuel cell without deviation in dimensions or fitting and accessory placement. This process has been subjected to and passed Federal Aviation Administration fuel cell testing specifications for commercial application. Most of this testing mirrors the testing required by the Navy. We have done all in our power to reduce the risk for the Navy (and ourselves) to ensure that our process will produce fuel cells that pass all Navy requirements. The time has come for the Navy to get high quality, inexpensive fuel cells, without long lead-times.
