Ionos used a strapping connection method not before used. Rather than crowd the strap attachment area with added anchor components we simply bar tacked the webbing to the thermoplastic carbon components.

My role as mechanical lead saw certain challenges regarding the insertion of the thermoplastic carbon components into the EPS tooling cavities. They did not fit at first but we created thermoplastic tools from the same surface geometries from the EPS tools and later versions were good enough for production tooling. This was the biggest challenge. The project was typical aside from that; testing and certification were managed by me.
