Make from Solid TechnologyTM is the manufacture of products from a single piece of material eliminating the need for multiple fabrication steps required with weldments and castings.
This innovative manufacturing process was developed to meet industry demands for lighter, design optimised products that retain strength and integrity.
This technology has been developed into a major high rate production environment with significant quantities of proven product flying on major programs across the globe.
Advantages include:
30% - 40% weight saving over conventional cast products.
Product design optimisation through close tolerance manufacture.
Thin wall manufacture to 1mm (0.039 inches).
Rapid prototyping with minimised design to manufacture lead times.
Eliminates weld failures, porosity, x-ray and the need for laboratory testing.
Modifications in design can be impacted in days.
Proven products in a range of materials.
