Aerospace Qualified Solutions
Our solutions reduce cost, weight, and downtime for our customers.
We are experts at manufacturing thermoplastic interior components with complex geometries suited to ECS ducting, tanks, drip pans, and other applications. Our solutions reduce cost, weight, and downtime for our customers. We have been producing aerospace components for the commercial and defense industry since 1972, using rotational molding and additive manufacturing processes.
Content on Existing Platforms
The industries we serve are both commercial and defense aircraft, including helicopters and fixed wing aircraft. If you have a project in mind that you would like quoted, please contact us.
Engineered Resin Formulation
We are also a long-established leader in custom resin formulation for highly specialized applications. Our thermoplastics are processed in-house to ensure quality and consistency. We are able to produce custom formulations for your specific applications in small or large quantities.
Our RMB 437 nylon resin is the only qualified resin applicable for the aerospace rotational molding process per spec BMS 8-270 Type I, Class 4, Form D.
Advantages of Rotational Molded or Laser Sintered Ducts Compared to Composite, Aluminum, or Extruded Ducts:
Lower cost per part
Potential for weight reduction
Supports complex geometries, which reduces part count
Tooling cost is low or non-existent
Durable parts that withstand impact during installation and maintenance
Processes are ideal for aerospace part quantities
Disadvantages of Rotational Molded or Laser Sintered Ducts Compared to Composite, Aluminum, or Extruded Ducts:
- Part weight may be more compared to other manufacturing with other processes
- There can be diameter to length restrictions (18” length per 1” diameter)
- There are temperature constraints of the part, due to the process being limited to plastics
