部品製造

部品製造では、部品は定置工程で加工されます。つまり、部品はマシンでワンチャック以上で加工されます。小型から中型のキュービック(箱型)部品はマシニングセンターで加工できますが、大型の部品は特別な門型マシンが必要になります。

Asportazione truciolo del titanio

Gli elevati requisiti dell’industria aerospaziale in termini di robustezza e resistenza alla corrosione in relazione al peso specifico fanno del titanio e delle rispettive leghe i materiali di fabbricazione prescelti. Il variegato campo d’impiego spazia da piccoli componenti strutturali lavorati meccanicamente a elementi portanti della fusoliera o alle pale dei motori.

Asportazione truciolo dell’alluminio

Asportazione truciolo dell’alluminio

La costante ricerca di riduzione del peso richiede l’impiego di materiali particolarmente leggeri e stabili. L’alluminio vanta un’elevata resistenza specifica con un basso peso proprio ed è quindi un eccellente materiale da costruzione. Rispetto all’acciaio, a parità di resistenza i componenti in alluminio pesano circa la metà, ma presentano un volume maggiore.

Materiali sintetici e compositi in fibra

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.

Solutions for final assembly

Even today, handheld machines are still used in the final assembly of aircraft, due to their size. For example, in final assembly lines (FAL), rivet holes are made in the outer skin of the aircraft’s fuselage. The tools are equipped with special guiding elements.

Robot systems

Robot systems

Robots with end-effectors for drilling and riveting mounted on shuttles are moved from assembly position to assembly position along the aircraft fuselage and position themselves automatically. MAPAL has defined various tool features especially for the aerospace industry that can be adapted optimally to the material and the boundary conditions, depending on the machining situation.

• High process reliability
• Optimum tool design for every application
• Many years of experience guarantee the best machining results

Drill feed units

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.

• Drilling from solid

  Tools for drilling from solid in multilayer composite materials (stacks) made out of CFRP, aluminium, high-alloy steels or titanium with a hand drill.
   

• Boring and reaming

  Boring and reaming of through bores tools with special cutting leads and guiding elements for the reliable production of precise bores with high surface quality and accurate concentricity.

• Countersinking

  Producing precise, circular countersinks and spot faces on bores that have already been pre-drilled.
