Our experience as model makers enables us to design and manufacture all the components required for the production of composite parts: tooling, blanks, machining or trimming jigs, and assembly jigs.
Shutters, panels, and hatches are essential components of the secondary structure of an airplane or helicopter. They provide access to internal systems and mechanisms while protecting them from external stresses and damage.
They are secured using hinges, ball pins, latches, or screws and nuts. They may incorporate additional functions such as sealing or electromagnetic shielding.
These panels can be made from metallic materials, but the use of composite materials offers weight savings and cost reductions (polyester, phenolic, and epoxy resins reinforced with glass, carbon, meta-aramid, or para-aramid). The choice of materials depends on mechanical stresses, fluid resistance, thermal resistance, corrosion constraints, and, of course, weight.
