Major Solutions Provided for Aerospace Design Development
We provide various solutions for your aerospace parts design and product development to ensure products manufactured at XinCheng stand out.
-
Aerospace PrototypingPrototyping is one of the first stages of product development. Material selection and design testing are done at this stage. At XinCheng, we detailed consider your design files and product requirements when making your aerospace prototypes.
-
Engineering Validation and Testing (EVT)At this stage of production, functional aerospace prototypes are produced repeatedly and quickly to ensure the product meets standard performance requirements. XinCheng offers you EVT, which makes it easier for you to identify and avoid design risks.
-
Design Validation and Testing (DVT)Part performance, appearance, and validation are carried out at this production stage. Additionally, the choice of material and finishing options are also made. The primary purpose of this production stage is to give you a final feel of the aerospace part using your chosen material and surface finish.
-
Production Validation and Testing (PVT)This stage involves preparing your design for full-scale production and advanced quality control. We also work with you closely, offering you feedback on all the production processes, thus hastening the time to market.
-
Final ProductionIn this stage, we mass produce the developed aerospace products. At XinCheng, we ensure that all final products are of high quality.
Available Materials for Aerospace Applications
There are different materials for producing aerospace components. At XinCheng, we have materials at our disposal that meet the standards of the aerospace industry.
Aluminum Alloy
Aluminum alloy has excellent ductility, machinability, corrosion resistance, and stiffness. However, one attribute that makes it ideal for the aerospace industry is its lightweight and strength-to-weight ratio. Aluminum is ideal for making wing skins, fuselage skin, wing stringers, and other aerospace structural applications.
Titanium Alloy
In the aerospace industry, titanium has the potential to replace aluminum parts. This is due to their ability to resist heat and corrosion. It is also resistant to extreme temperatures and chemical degradation, making it ideal to withstand extreme conditions mid-air.
Titanium also has an excellent strength-to-weight ratio. It finds application in aircraft engines and airframes. It is also a good material for making aircraft fasting elements and gears for airplanes.
Stainless Steel
This is low-carbon steel with a minimum of 10% chromium by weight. Furthermore, stainless steel is strong and corrosion-resistant and it maintains its integrity at any temperature, making it ideal for use in the aerospace sector. Stainless steel has several beneficial properties and has applications in producing exhaust parts, critical aircraft joints, and landing components. It is available in many forms, including wires, bars, sheets, and plates.
Engineering Plastics
These are plastics with better mechanical and thermal properties than commodity plastics. They are high-performance synthetic resins with excellent heat resistance and durability. For instance, HDPE has excellent abrasion, flame resistance, and abrasion, which gives it application in the aerospace industry.
Carbon Fiber
Carbon fiber finds industry-wide acceptance due to its stiffness and strength. Carbon fiber also has impressive strength and corrosion resistance. It often finds application in the aerospace industry during the production of control surfaces, fuselage, and wing boxes.
Surface Finishes Options For Aerospace Prototypes and Parts
Surface treatments improve product or components’ aesthetic qualities. They also serve as protection against corrosion as well as wear and tear. Here are some surface finish options available for aerospace prototypes.
| Name | Description | Materials | Texture | Color |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Anodizing | It increases wear resistance, hardness, and corrosion resistance while also preserving the metal's surface. | Aluminum, Titanium, Magnesium | Smooth, Matte | Almost any color |
| Powder Coating | A form of coating called a powder coat is applied as a dry, free-flowing powder. It is often applied and then heated or exposed to ultraviolet radiation to cure. | Steel, Aluminum, Stainless steel | Glossy finish | Black Pantone number and RAL code |
| Electroplating | Functional, ornamental, or corrosion-related electroplating is all possible. | Stainless steel, Aluminum | Smooth, Glossy | N/A |
| Polishing | The technique of polishing involves giving an object's surface a smooth, shining appearance through mechanical rubbing or chemical intervention. | Steel, Brass, Stainless steel, and Aluminum | Glossy | N/A |
| Brushing | In brushing, abrasive belts are used to leave marks on the material's surface, usually for decorative reasons. | ABS, Aluminum, Stainless steel, Brass, and Steel | Satin | N/A |
