Airplane Flaps and Slats form a dynamic duo that work together to optimize lift, control and stability throughout the various phases of flight. In order to keep these two critical components operating flawlessly, aerospace manufacturers rely on Apex Assembly & Fabrication Tools‘ Needle Bearing Series Universal Joints. Engineered with high strength-to-weight ratios, Apex Universal Joints feature excellent torsional freeplay (i.e. backlash) characteristics ideally-suited to the aerospace environment.

When the pressure is on, the aerospace industry turns to Kevlar®. Many aircraft contain bottles of pressurized oxygen and other gases. Choosing the right material for the casing of these bottles is critical. If a traditional alloy-encased bottle suffers catastrophic failure, metal fragments can be released at high velocity, threatening passengers and crew. Casings made with Kevlar® filament offer a more lightweight solution that also reduces risk — rupturing rather than disintegrating if ductile failure occurs, which does not result in fragmentation.

Springs are indispensable components in airplanes, serving diverse roles in ensuring safety, comfort, and functionality. 👌 Safety is the top priority in the aerospace sector, and any risk of spring failure is simply not an option - this is why spring testing is crucial. In the past, we've received several springs which were intended for use in the control panel of a plane, which failed during fatigue testing. From this, we carried out a full failure analysis and were able to make several recommendations to the customer as to how it could be remedied. ✅ #Aerospace #Springs #SpringDesign #SpringDesigners #DesignEngineers #SpringTesting #SpringFailure #FailureAnalysis

Pitting corrosion is a localized form of corrosion that creates small, deep holes in metal surfaces, often going unnoticed until significant damage has occurred. In aircraft, this type of corrosion can weaken critical structural components, such as the airframe and engine parts, posing potential safety risks if not identified and addressed promptly. Laser cleaning helps mitigate pitting corrosion by removing contaminants and oxidation from metal surfaces, thereby restoring the underlying substrate.

They may be small compared to other components, but backup rings play a critical role in ensuring the reliability and performance of high-pressure aerospace #hydraulicsystems which are used to power everything from an aircraft's landing gear, flight controls and fuel systems to its brakes, systems which are critical to ensuring safe operation. #fluidpower #hydraulics #motioncontrol #sealing #technology #engineering #design #safety #aerospace CDI Products Power & Motion

Composites help needed! This is your chance to help shape future generations of compositeers by sharing some of your hard-earned lessons learned. I’m in the process of updating and expanding the chapter on “Aircraft Applications” for the ASM International Handbook 21, Composites. Here are platforms/technologies I am specifically targeting. If you worked on any of these, or know someone who worked on any of these, or if you have info about already published technical papers or articles in industry publications concerning any of these, please contact me via direct message or leave a comment below. * Boeing 787 AFP fuselage * Airbus Aircraft ATL A350 wing skin * Airbus VARTM A220 wing skin * Northrop Grumman B-21 Raider (long shot but I thought I’d check) * Boeing C-17 * Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II (any version, any unique composite applications) * Boeing F/A-18E/F/G co-cured/co-bonded structure * Northrop Grumman Global Hawk bonded wing structure * Cirrus SR22 and/or SF50 * Diamond Aircraft DA42 and/or DA50 RG * Epic Aircraft E1000 GX * Any other platforms/applications that you think should be featured Obviously not looking for anything proprietary or export controlled. This is a great way to get your company’s technology out there for everyone to see as well as passing on valuable lessons for the next generation of engineers who will be designing the next 50 years of composite aircraft structure. Dream big. Work hard. Help others. It’s the #LaminateLife way. And right now, LaminateLife is asking for your help. Inputs/suggestions needed prior to the end of this month. Thank you!! -Gary #composites #advancedmanufacturing #aerospace #flying

Precision and Performance for Demanding Aerospace Applications ✈️ 🛩️ On December 17, 1903, Orville and Wilbur Wright made history with the first powered flight in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. Their pioneering spirit and relentless drive to solve engineering challenges marked the dawn of modern aviation and laid the foundation for the aerospace advancements we rely on today. 🛫 The aerospace industry leaves no room for compromise. Whether it’s extreme temperatures, high pressures, or the need for absolute reliability, every component counts – especially your seals and gaskets. 🚁 At DP Seals Ltd, we specialise in providing custom-engineered sealing solutions that meet the rigorous demands of the aerospace sector.
