Aerospace and Composites

Part machining

In part manufacturing, the machining of parts is stationary, i.e. parts are cut in a machine in several clamping positions. While small to medium cubic parts can be machined on a machining centre, large parts require special gantry machines.

Titanium machining

Titanium machining

Titanium and titanium alloys are predestined for use in aerospace. High demands are placed on workpiece material strength and corrosion resistance in relation to their specific weight. This results in a wide range of applications extending from small mechanically processed structural parts to load-bearing parts in the fuselage or blades in the engine.

Aluminium machining

Aluminium machining

When it comes to pre-series or prototype moulds, it is not unusual to use materials that are easy to machine. Aluminium alloys or uriol (plastics) are often used. In these cases, solid carbide tools with positive and partly polished cutting edges, or better still, PCD-tipped tools ensure high productivity and short machining times.

Plastics and CFRP machining

Plastics and CFRP machining

Fibre composite materials are very strong and rigid relative to their light weight. The properties of the materials can be modified as required, by making use of various matrix materials and types of fibres. This allows the optimal fulfilment of the requirements that are made of the part. The parts are manufactured using a near net shape technique. Machining tasks include, among other things, the subsequent machining of the outer contour and the manufacturing of functional surfaces.

ドリルフィードユニット

Drill feed units

In contrast to handheld machines, drill feed units allow the tool to be guided mechanically. An additional guidance is required from a total length of 120 mm or more. The use of drill bushes is recommended. Our tools convince through:

• Minimal burr formation and improved centring
• Optimal bore quality and a long tool life
• Low emissions when machining

Hand drills

Hand drills

Handheld machines offer a high degree of flexibility but lack the qualities required for stable tool guidance. As a result, additional stabilisers are needed to produce a constant diameter. MAPAL has developed a range of high-performance tools specifically for machining with handheld machines and drill feed units.
