Aerostructure production – solutions for higher productivity and process reliability

The requests for higher process safety, increased productivity and innovative solutions have far-reaching consequences for the manufacturing of structural components. Together with Siemens, aerospace manufacturers are continually raising the bar and achieving their targets.

Siemens solution

With integral components now made of aluminum and titanium, chip removal rates of over 90% have become the norm. These can be achieved cost-efficiently, accurately, and with perfect surface quality thanks to our comprehensive manufacturing concepts for aerospace. Furthermore, Siemens solutions meet the requirements of cutting-edge composite materials and additive manufacturing.

Faster and more efficient product development

The latest version of NX brings you new tools with the power to significantly improve your product development in the aerospace industry.

Simple assessment of engine performance

The LMS Imagine.Lab Aircraft Engine simulation solution for jet engine design and simulation allows you to define the exact conditions for aircraft systems such as electrical power generation, bleed systems, fuel systems, and flight dynamics.

Complex products in less time

Teamcenter helps aerospace manufacturers deliver increasingly complex products to market while maximizing productivity and streamlining global operations.

Additive Manufacturing

Siemens provides complete software and automation solutions for additive manufacturing along the whole value-added chain. The solution range from product development with NX software to automation of 3D printers with SINUMERIK, SIMATIC or SIMOTION, right through to integration into production process with SIMATIC IT (MES/MOM).

CNC systems for higher productivity

SINUMERIK 840D sl is considered a benchmark in the CNC premium class – and with good reason. Maximum CNC performance and unparalleled flexibility and openness are the basis for almost every machine concept for aerospace manufacturers.

Milling competence for perfect surfaces

Advanced operation, unique technology cycles, optimum shopfloor programming, high-quality CNC simulation, and first-class motion control – this is SINUMERIK MDynamics milling technology for aerospace manufacturers.

Flexible machine tool automation

The latest version of NX brings you new tools with the power to significantly improve your product development in the aerospace industry.

Maximum ease of use of operation

SINUMERIK Operate provides maximum ease of operation of the machine tool and sets the standard for the efficient operation of machine tools in aerostructure production.

The optimum drive for every purpose

Siemens provides frequency converters suitable for every drive application. Our products range from basic drives and dynamic servo drives for motion control to medium-voltage drives – as well as tailored solutions for the aerospace industry.

Efficient engineering

Totally Integrated Automation ensures the efficient interoperability of all automation components. The open system covers the entire production process and is based on consistent data management, global standards, and standardized hardware and software interfaces. This minimizes engineering time and leads to lower costs, a reduced time to market, and greater flexibility.
