Aerospace: weight reduction, safety and high rigidity

The aerospace sector is distinguished by an extensive list of requirements concerning safety, durability and traceability and a high degree of specialisation in technologies. In addition, the combination of weight and size reduction, strength and stiffness are also a continuous challenge.

Applications
Most of the plastic components are used in galley and cabin equipment. The example below shows the use of high performance polymers for the parts of a steamoven. The ovens are used intensively and must be simple to maintain and replace throughout many years of service.

Design knowledge
Pekago possesses extensive knowledge and experience concerning product design and specialist mould fabrication with application of high performance polymers. The use of these materials in combination with fibre reinforcement and SFM offers additional freedom of design, particularly in applications with numerous requirements and preconditions for various characteristics.

Pekago: innovative with plastic
All of our machines are outfitted to process high performance polymers. Oil cooling of moulds, injection moulding machine heating and cooling, coating, 5-axis robotic finish milling or ultrasonic welding: our equipment guarantees optimal quality and delivery reliability. And, naturally, the traceability of raw materials is assured in accordance with UL standards.
