Critical manufacturing & performance requirements for
the frame are --
Low weight
High structural stiffness and low thermal expansion to maintain
component alignment
High thermal conductivity and high heat tolerance (Local
temperatures as high as 250C.)
Ability to achieve complex thin wall shape and precision features
with typical post-machine tolerances of +/-0.1 mm.
Near-net shape forming to minimize
machining operations and cost.
