Based on the analysis of the development trends of modern transport equipment the prospect of structural composite materials usage, for example CFRP structural, is shown. In this regard, the expediency of conducting research to improve the strength characteristics of these materials is established. It is shown that, despite the large amount of scientific publications on the application of electro-technological methods and microwave technologies for modification of composite materials, applied to heterogeneous materials, such as carbon fiber, in Russia and abroad there are still some unsolved theoretical and practical questions. The studies of the effect of microwave electromagnetic field power density on different physical and mechanical characteristics of laminated composite materials in order to establish the opportunities to improve their performance, in particular their strength, were made. The example of carbon is used to show that the microwave electromagnetic field power density of 17.5 W/cm3 at a frequency of 2450 MHz exposure time of 2 minutes causes an increase in the shear strength of 38 – 40 % and an increase in the duration of the construction operation of carbon under the action of the peak load of 1.5 up to 4.5 times, wherein the change in flexural strength and modulus of elasticity was 2.6 %.

The analysis of the prospects for the use of additive technologies in the production of aerospace equipment has been performed. It is shown that one of the main problems of implementation of these technologies in the main production is the lack of strength and endurance of 3D printing objects. The influence of electro physical effects of varying intensity on the strength properties of the objects from powder materials, formed by 3D printing has been researched. It is found that the electromagnetic field of medium intensity of the investigated range causes an increase in the flexural strength of the plates made of powder Zp130 impregnated with cyanoacrylate Z-Bond TM90, not less than 38%. Thus, a 24% decrease in pore size and reduction in their dispersion by almost 30% is noticed. It is shown that the composite material structure becomes denser with a large number of connections between the agglomerates. The increase in the number of connections, and the increased uniformity of the structure after the electrophysical influence is one of the mechanisms to improve the strength of 3D printed objects exposed to electro-physical influence.
