AFT × SHAKESPEARE COMPOSITES PROTECTION SYSTEM

X-Volt

Developed with Shakespeare Composite Structures, this platform combines AFT's proprietary auxetic technology with advanced composite materials to support non-conductive, lightweight, and configurable protection applications. X-Volt is designed for applications requiring electrical isolation, equipment separation, and personnel protection, including battery systems, electrical equipment, equipment racks, and other environments where conductive materials may present operational or safety challenges.

CAPABILITIES
Electrical Isolation
Non-Conductive Protection
Composite Equipment Guards
Configurable Barrier Systems
KEY FEATURES

INSIDE X-VOLT

Every component of X-Volt is purposefully selected and integrated to provide non-conductive protection, electrical isolation, and application-specific performance. By combining advanced composite materials with AFT's auxetic technology platform, X-Volt helps address demanding electrical and operational environments.

01
Auxetic Fabric Outer Layer
Proprietary auxetic geometry engineered to absorb, redistribute, and dissipate energy under load.
02
Non-Conductive Composite Construction
Advanced composite materials designed to provide structural performance while maintaining electrical isolation in demanding environments.
03
Blast Rated to 60 PSI
Engineered and tested to withstand blast overpressures up to 60 psi, helping reduce force transmission during high-consequence events.
04
Corrosion Resistant Performance
Designed to withstand harsh operating environments, composite materials resist corrosion and degradation where traditional materials may fail.

Force Encounters the System

When an impact or pressure event occurs, AFT's proprietary auxetic outer layer is designed to engage immediately. Rather than simply resisting the applied load, the system responds dynamically to the forces acting upon it.

Energy Is Redirected

As the event progresses, the auxetic architecture expands under stress, helping absorb, redistribute, and manage transmitted forces throughout the system. This reduces localized loading and promotes more controlled energy dissipation.

Electrical Isolation Is Maintained

Shakespeare Composite Structures' advanced non-conductive materials help preserve electrical isolation during the event, protecting personnel, equipment, and critical infrastructure operating in energized environments.

Structural Integrity Is Preserved

High-performance composite construction resists corrosion, moisture, and environmental degradation, helping maintain structural capability and reliable performance during and after the event.
