The aerospace industry in North America is worth $130\u2013$200 billion per year and it contributes $300\u2013$350 billion annually to the economy<\/strong>. Advance technologies in aerospace and defense such as lean, test and measurement, composites, high-speed machining, rapid prototyping and alternative cutting technologies, which have an impact on engine, airframe, rotary wing, naval, space, land-based systems, avionics, defense electronics and materials manufacturing are poised for large growth over the next 6-7 years.<\/p>\n

\"aerospace\"<\/a>Over the past several years Fagor Automation<\/strong><\/span><\/a>\u2019s Research & Development team has developed many specific features for the aerospace industry<\/strong> with CNC 8055 & CNC 8065 platforms. They were dedicated to ensuring the CNC platforms contained the capability to provide the high performance features the Aerospace manufacturers required.<\/p>\n

On high order of these features was a combination of attaining a higher level of speed and precision-especially for machining composites. The Fagor Automation R&D team tasked themselves with developing many features including an on-board High Speed Surface Accuracy system (HSSA)<\/strong> combined with various algorithms and specific features like: tilt plane vector compensation, dual ultra precision resolution & accuracy, all delivered through complete ensemble of Fagor products. The monumental task has been successful based upon the results shown thus far.<\/p>\n

As of 2014, Fagor Automation has successfully installed CNC 8055 or CNC 8065 Systems in the following Aerospace Industry Leaders Manufacturing facilities:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
– Lockheed Martin<\/strong><\/td>\n– Cessna Aircraft<\/strong><\/td>\n– Alenia \u2013Aermacchi<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
– Bell Helicopter<\/strong><\/td>\n– Airbus<\/strong><\/td>\n– ATK-Alliance Tech<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
– Boeing<\/strong><\/td>\n– Messier-Dowty<\/strong><\/td>\n– Bal Seal Eng.<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
– Raytheon<\/strong><\/td>\n– Bombardier<\/strong><\/td>\n– Pratt & Whitney<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
– L3 Communications<\/strong><\/td>\n– Rolls Royce Turbine<\/strong><\/td>\n– Northrup Grumman<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

The HSSA (High Speed Surface Accuracy) machining system reduces mechanical stress on the machine<\/strong> and extends the life of its components, while obtaining smoother movements and allowing higher feed rate and reduced machining errors.<\/p>\n

The CNC 8065<\/span><\/a> is designed to easily adapt to a broad variety of machine structures managing standard kinematics (parallel kinematics, spherical spindles, rotary tables, etc.) and allowing to integrate the manufacturer’s specific machine kinematics with ease.<\/strong><\/p>\n
