Aerospace and Composites
In the aerospace industry, materials that are both high-strength and lightweight is the key. By making use of new combinations of materials, weight can be reduced further, strength and corrosion resistance can be increased and assembly can be simplified by using an integrated design. Whereas structural parts made of aluminium, titanium or high strength steel are machined on machining centres or gantry machines, final assembly machining is carried out by handheld machines, drill feed units or robots.
零件加工
在工件加工中，结构组件必须采用固定加工的方式，即工件在一台机床上必须一次或多次通过夹具被夹紧后进行加工。虽然中小型方体工件在一台加工中心（BAZ）上即可完成加工，但大型结构组件则需要专门的龙门机床。
Montagem final
Na montagem final de uma aeronave, devido ao tamanho do objeto, até hoje trabalha-se com máquinas conduzidas manualmente. Nas chamadas Final Assembly Lines (FAL - Linhas de montagem final), por exemplo, são aplicados furos de rebite no revestimento externo da fuselagem da aeronave. As ferramentas são conduzidas com elementos guia especiais.
