Elevating Precision: Critical Aerospace Components Redefined
The aerospace industry demands high-precision and high-quality components to ensure the safety and reliability of an aircraft. The accuracy of these components is crucial, as even the slightest errors can have catastrophic consequences. This is where precision machining and grinding can play a significant role in ensuring the accuracy and precision of critical aerospace components. […]
Is Your Defense Part Material Too Difficult to Manufacture?
Tight tolerances, thin walls, complex configurations, and visibly perfect finishes are among the chief defense manufacturing challenges. Still, nothing can ground a project liftoff faster than a difficult-to-manufacture part material. While straightforward materials like aluminum and stainless steel generally pose few complications, dozens of other exotic alloys can create significant obstacles on the production floor, […]
How We’re Rising to Meet the Future of Aerospace Component Manufacturing
Aerospace manufacturing flourished from 2004 to 2018 with continuous production rates and new program introductions. Then, the 2019 Boeing 737 Max grounding and the 2020 global pandemic emergence socked a one-two punch to the then-thriving industry, forcing a historic 70% drop in passenger demand between 2019 to 2020, the largest-ever year-over-year dip. Having endured […]
What to Expect During the Ultra-Precision Component Manufacturing Process
As mission-critical medical components, aerospace, defense, space exploration, and other high-tech components become increasingly precise, the demand for ultra-precision component manufacturing has reached a new level. Whether you’re a project manager new to the industry or a seasoned pro with an exceedingly complex manufacturing challenge, your success hinges on accurate and timely parts – made […]
Leading the Way With EDM
Have you ever worked with biomedical materials, in particular Trabecular Metal? Do you know what Trabecular Metal (TM) is? In the picture above, the TM is on the right, and a picture of the structure of bone is on the left. The, obviously, similar structures of the two, fosters the ability of the bone to […]
