Aerospace industry

TWI has provided services to the worldwide aerospace industry for many years. We offer novel solutions in joining technology for the broadest range of aerospace materials. Our strategy is to add value to clients by working with them to reduce their costs or add functionality to their product or service.

We have provided assistance to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) in the welding of airframe structures by laser beam welding and friction stir welding, and the production of aircraft engine components by TIG welding, keyhole plasma welding, linear friction welding, electron beam welding and laser direct metal deposition.

As well as supporting developments in welding engineering technology, we can now assist with materials development, coatings technology, non-destructive inspection (NDI), welding and NDI training courses, process modelling, life modelling, microfabrication and the performance and reliability of aircraft structures.

Today's work supports the main airframe, engine and main component manufacturers. Tomorrow's work will extend this to rotorcraft and a greater range of supplier companies, particularly the growing sensor market.
