DAHER-SOCATA, major tier-1 partner on A350 XWB programme
Paris, June 17, 2013 - DAHER-SOCATA, DAHER's Aerospace & Defence division, is proud to be a major programme partner for the latest addition to the Airbus family, which took to the skies for its maiden flight on June 14. This high-technology programme has offered DAHER-SOCATA the opportunity to put its Research & Technology into practice in key technology areas, and to apply innovations in terms of services.
With its many technological specialties, both in terms of materials (composites and advanced metallics) and assembly, DAHER-SOCATA has leveraged much of its expert know-how for the design and manufacture of aerostructures for the A350 XWB.
In industrial Design and Manufacturing, DAHER-SOCATA is working on four main work packages:
. Design and manufacture of the AIOS (Air Inlet Outer Surface), for the engine air inlet: large dimension (4 metres in diameter) composite part in the engine environment, entirely made of composites (carbon fibre). This assembly is on display at the DAHER stand at the Paris Air Show (Hall 2A - No. B254).
. Design and manufacture of the main landing gear composite door. With a surface area of 10.4 square metres, both of the main landing gear doors on the aircraft are manufactured using an automated fibre placement process.
. Design and manufacture of the engine pylon aft structure: These fairing and structural elements, 3 square metres in area, are located at the junction between the engine and wing.
. Production of basic technological items: thermoplastic clips (interfacing between frames, stringers and fuselage panels), metal pipes, wiring rails and air inlet stiffeners.
In Integrated Industrial SupportTM, DAHER-SOCATA accompanies the A350 XWB programme from diagnostics through to deployment and management of operational services, with four main categories of service:
. Service engineering and production: industrialisation, production coordination, FAL technical support.
. Industrial services: installation of temperature and sound insulation blankets, assembly work on sections and sub-assemblies.
. Logistics: local logistics, supply flows.
. Project transport: aerostructures and bulky parts.
DAHER-SOCATA's ability to implement high value- added solutions, underpinned by expertise in leading-edge technological specialties, its engineering capabilities and its ability to manage the supply chain from end to end, has enabled the Group to be selected as a major partner on the A350 XWB programme.
