The technical requirements of aerospace and defense component manufacturing have become increasingly demanding as production sophistication has grown and regulatory requirements have increased. Metal parts used in helicopters, airplanes and advanced military applications must meet critical tolerances that are oftentimes measured in the thousandths of an inch.
Examples of the ways that Airbrasive’s products can be used in the Aerospace & Defense sector include:
• Small hole drilling
• Marking helicopter blades
• Turbine blade regeneration
• Aluminum and plastics deburring on valve and manifold parts
• Removing burrs on machined parts
• Cleaning and texturing mold cavities for plastic parts
• Surface texturing and preparation
• Wire stripping
