Typically,
in an aerospace industry, aircraft part or parts are used for around 30 or more
years. Such parts are usually titled as ‘Permanent’ and thus are marked as
such, using part numbers, codes, and barcodes, to last their complete life
cycle. The method mostly employed by aerospace manufacturers is Direct Part
Marking, an efficient process that aids in a reliable identification and
replacement of parts.
Materials
used in aeronautical manufacturing vary considerably, depending on their type,
and function of the parts. Basically, there are a set of strict rules regarding
the correct use of technology, which the aerospace manufacturers have to comply
with. They have to ensure an ease in identification as well as traceability of
parts that need replacing.
This sort
of challenge implies that manufacturers constantly research and look for new
and revolutionized marking method, after all, aerospace safety is not laughing
matter. In this regard, Heat Sign, a manufacturing solutions company located in
Wuxi City, Province of China, recently announced the launch of six
revolutionized Aerospace Industry MarkingSolutions. These new marking methods can actually prove highly productive
and aid in enhancing the quality and functionality of these aerospace products.
Revolutions in
Aerospace Marking
Let us talk
in more detail about the these new products and their exact significance to the
aerospace industry. The new products introduced and their relevant functions
are listed together, below:
1. Marking On Gear: Gear Parts, ID Plates,
Screws, Actuator, Power Generator,
2. Marking on Brake System: Landing Gear Parts, Brake Disks, and Thrust
Reversers,
3. Marking On Turbine Components: Blades,
Segments, Screw Disks, Rings, etc,
4. Marking on Fuel and Hydraulics:
Generators, Pumps, Thermal Exchange Systems, Sockets, Switches, Wine Ropes, ID
Plates,
5. Marking on Frame Structure Parts: Nuts,
Prototypes, ID Plates, and Precision Components, and
6. Marking on Tools: Cutting Tools, Bolts,
Screws, Drills, Large Tools and Maintenance Parts.
How can we
test for the reliability of these new solutions? Well, for one thing, the
company had put in years into acquiring experience and research and is
comprised of competent teams of engineers, committed to manufacturing and
supplying products and solutions for their correct tracking and identification.
Secondly, these solutions seem to address almost all types of parts and
aerospace components, offering appropriate marking methods for these parts.
Types of
Products Offered
Heat Sign
is offering three main types of product marking solutions among many others.
They offer a Bench Top Dot Peen Marking, Laser Marking Method, and Portable Dot
Peen Marking, all of which have a use of their own, depending on the type of
material the product to be marked is composed of.
Since a lot
of noticeable revolution has taken place in the marking industry as can be seen
above, it is a duty of the aeronautical manufacturers and engineers to make use
of these products that allow efficient marking, traceability, identification,
and replacement of aerospace parts. Aerospace Industry Marking is not a luxury, but a ‘need’ of manufacturers if they
intend to produce safe and reliable aircrafts.
