Helix-Carbon GmbH is a German company specializing in the design and manufacture of carbon fiber composite propellers. Founded in 1990 by Richard Krügel-Sprengel, the company is headquartered at the Merzbrück airfield in Würselen, Germany. Helix-Carbon GmbH produces a wide range of propellers for various aviation applications, including ultralight aircraft, paramotors, and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
Category:History Helix-Carbon GmbH was established in 1990, initially focusing on developing propellers for ultralight aviation. Over the years, the company expanded its product range to include propellers for a broader array of aircraft, including those used in eVTOL (electric vertical take-off and landing) and multicopter platforms. By the early 2000s, Helix had become a recognized name in the aviation industry, known for its innovative use of carbon fiber materials.
In 2010, Helix-Carbon GmbH received its first EASA (European Union Aviation Safety Agency) Type Certificate for its H50F propeller, marking a significant milestone in the company's history. This certification affirmed the company's adherence to stringent safety and performance standards in propeller manufacturing.
Category:Products and Technology Helix-Carbon GmbH specializes in propellers made from carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP), a material known for its strength, lightweight properties, and durability. These propellers are used in a variety of applications, from recreational paramotors to industrial UAVs. The company's propellers are noted for their high efficiency, reduced oscillation, and minimal noise production, making them suitable for modern, high-performance aircraft.
The production process at Helix involves meticulous handcrafting, with propeller blades formed from carbon fiber fabrics embedded in epoxy resin. The finished products undergo CNC milling for precise finishing, ensuring consistency and reliability across all units produced.
Category:Market Presence Helix-Carbon GmbH is a global player in the propeller manufacturing industry, with a significant presence in the European market. The company regularly participates in major aviation trade shows, such as AERO Friedrichshafen, where it showcases its latest innovations and product developments.
The company's propellers are used by several prominent aircraft manufacturers and are featured in various aircraft programs, including the Elektra Solar Elektra One and the German Gyro Matto. Helix's propellers are also a popular choice in the paramotor and ultralight aviation communities due to their performance and reliability.
Category:Collaborations and Innovations Helix-Carbon GmbH has established partnerships with several industrial and academic institutions, including FH Aachen and RWTH Aachen Universities. These collaborations are aimed at advancing the company's research and development capabilities, particularly in the areas of material science and aerodynamics.
