Future trends in aerospace

Now that the markets have returned to levels of growth last seen in 2006, how can aerospace manufacturers get back on track? The answer lies in more sustainable manufacturing. Here, Sébastien Jaeger, Industry Solution Manager – Aerospace for cutting tools specialist Sandvik Coromant, explains how collaboration will play a vital role in the recovery of the aerospace industry. chevron_right

A greener future for aerospace

The pressure is high on the aerospace industry to provide greener aircraft that are lighter and can travel for longer distances. This will require profound research and an intense focus on innovative technical solutions. chevron_right

Turning exotic materials

ISO S materials exhibit unique properties, making them particularly suitable for aerospace components. These same properties also make them demanding to machine — but not difficult if approached in the right way. chevron_right

Ceramic end mills help optimize aerospace component machining

Ceramic end mills can make all the difference when manufacturing challenging HRSA materials. Since ceramic cutters retain their hardness at high temperatures, they can reach up to 30 times more machining speed in comparison with solid carbide tools. chevron_right

Precision coolant advantages for machining aerospace materials

The use of precision coolant has made a vast impact on metal cutting, especially when machining demanding ISO S materials. Learn more about the evolution of coolant and the indispensable value it has brought to the aerospace industry. chevron_right

A solid way to overcome microdefects

Hole surface integrity is a great concern for aerospace manufacturers. Find out how our customer partnered up with Sandvik Coromant in a pursuit to eliminate secondary processes and combat the white layer effect. chevron_right

Running red hot

Aerospace components are challenging workpieces, many of them thin-walled and all including complex shapes. We examine why a well-considered holistic solution plays a vital part of a successful end result. chevron_right

Ceramics like it hot

Correctly applied ceramic inserts offer a powerful alternative for both turning and milling of HRSA materials. See how ceramics offer a substantially higher metal removal rate in a complex Inconel application. chevron_right

Metal cutting solutions for the aerospace industry

New technologies and materials are essential, but also bring challenges into aerospace research and development. As a result, manufacturers must partner with experienced, knowledgeable tool providers to help them navigate new requests. chevron_right
