Modern aircraft have many vital components that allow them to perform amazing feats. And without the aircraft landing gear, nothing would be possible. The landing gear is the structure that supports the entire aircraft when on the ground. This means it requires very strong materials. Which is surprising, considering the fact that the first airplane the Wright Brothers made didn’t have wheels, but skids, and yet they took off and landed rather easily and safely. We’ve come a long way from skids though— with pontoons to land in water and skis to land snow or icy weather.
Microminiature connectors offer high performance and reliability with remarkable versatility on par with their “standard” counterparts. They’re used in the aerospace, computer systems, defense, medical, and network industries and come in different configurations such as rectangular, circular, and strip. ITT Cannon, a leading manufacturer of microminiature connectors, boasts the broadest selections of micro interconnect solutions, beginning with the MDM, MDM PCB, MDMH, TMDM, MJS, MIK, and MIKQ.
Fasteners are pretty standard and common pieces of hardware, used in almost every aerospace and aviation application possible. However, because of the delicate and critical nature of these industries, sometimes fasteners, as they are, aren’t enough. Heat-treating allows manufacturers to alter fasteners in order to achieve the desired level of rigidity, smoothness, malleability, and strength to suit their client’s needs. So, it’s important to keep a few things in mind when heat-treating fasteners.
There are diverse types of fasteners obtainable for practical use in countless industries and they vary in dimension, longevity, robustness, pull out strength, shear capacity and numerous other factors that go into manufacturing a specific type of fastener for certain equipment. The aviation industry makes use of parts that meet the safety quality level proposed by the relevant body, and in order to position those parts firmly to endure a large amount of stress, the fasteners such as aircraft nuts and bolts are essential.
Recently, Aerospace Manufacturing made the exciting announcement that they would be able to start supplying the public with fasteners made by companies found on the Qualified Suppliers List for Manufacturers. But what is the Qualified Suppliers List for Manufacturers?
An engine produced by CFM International for Boeing’s new Mid-Market Airplane (NMA) could be the growth version of the Leap series turbofan. This would imply a balance between a “derivative and a clean-sheet design,” according to David Joyce, GE Aviation chief executive. Joyce also mentions that the engine will be “bigger” and an advancement of the Leap technology by half a generation.
Lion Air Group and The Boeing Aircraft Company recently celebrated the first delivery of the 737 MAX 9. The new airplane will go into service with Thai Lion Air. The fresh added capacity of the airplane will support the airline to launch new international routes. Captain Darsito Hendro Seputro, CEO and Chariman of Thai Lion Air, believes the 737 MAX 9 is the iconic fit for the expanding business in Thailand. In his eyes, the 737 has been the support of the airline’s business since the beginning. The added capacity the 737 MAX 9 can give will allow for the airline to further their network and initiate new routes to China, India, and Bangladesh.
TE Connectivity has recently released two great sources to be able to supply the market a 400G Ethernet speed. Such speeds have not yet reached the public and to date have only been talk of the century. The Connectivity company has recently released OSFP and QSFP-DD’s products of their own that will be able to reach such speeds.
Russia has recently signed a contract that showcases its design plans for Russia’s first gas engine in the 75,000-pound thrust power class. The contract, endowed by the Russian government, was put into effect on January 19th, of this year. The engine will be used for military purposes and will be crafted by United Engine-Avadvigatel. They have until 2023 to deliver on their contract and the engine must contain top of the line features, like wide-chord composite fan blades and a new and improved fan case, as well as an improved cooling system.
In late December of last year, GE Aviation showcased its newest engine in Prague. The turboprop engine is the newest clean-sheet engine to be released by GE Aviation in more than three decades. The engines maiden voyage went smoothly and yielded nothing but positive results.
