OSG tooling innovations are designed to excel in difficult-to-machine aerospace materials. In this Case Study, the challenge was to develop a versatile and stable tool with maximum removal rates in Titanium alloys. See how OSG's new grinding technology reduced roughing time by 35%.

Bye-bye, lap lines and stress risers. Smooth is the name of the game. Learn all about the tools and techniques needed to remove metal from aircraft wings.

Fatigue can have a big impact on safety at manufacturing facilities. Learn how aviation FRMS practices can help reduce employee accidents.

The demand for high-performance grinding tools continues to grow as aerospace manufacturers expand their use of nickel-based alloys and composite materials. A Norton Saint-Gobain engineer details tooling features that allow for high material removal without sacrificing end-product quality.

You know from experience that while composite layers are strong, they also can wear down a tool’s geometry in a matter of minutes and splinter at the edge when machined. Such splintering causes weakness. You don’t want splintering on an aircraft hull or wing. Kennametal has created a tool with the right geometry, clearance, and coating to withstand composite wear and eliminate splintering.

Between recent space endeavors and increasing air traffic, fabricators are constantly faced with new problems to solve. 

The production of critical structural parts from titanium ensures their required performance and reliability whilst significantly reducing components mass.

The benefits of an independent audit and quality management system certification will help you become bid-ready for parts-making jobs in aerospace. There is much to know.
