  • METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A LINING PANEL WITH AN INTEGRATED ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR FOR AN AIRCRAFT OR SPACECRAFT, LINING PANEL AND LINING PANEL ASSEMBLY
    Publication number: 20170274974
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a lining panel with an integrated electrical connector for a lining of a passenger cabin of an aircraft or spacecraft. An additive manufacturing (AM) or 3D printing technique is used to laterally form electrically conductive pins on a panel body of the lining panel to provide an electrical connector. The electrically conductive pins connect to electric lines attached to or formed on or into the panel body. A lining panel with an integrated electrical connector for a lining of a passenger cabin of an aircraft or spacecraft is disclosed. The lining panel has a panel body, electric lines attached to or formed on or into the panel body, and an electrical connector with electrically conductive pins formed laterally on the panel body of the lining panel using an AM or 3D printing technique. The electrically conductive pins are configured to connect to the electric lines.
