Build to print
RAFAUT has acquired a strong expertise in the manufacturing of built-to-print complex assemblies:
- Rudder pedals or sliding tables for AIRBUS
- Flight Controls for STELIA
- Rotor Brakes for AIRBUS HELOCOPTERS, etc.
Thanks to its expertise in system design, RAFAUT can operate at the earliest stages, before the certification, to assist the aircraft maker in:
- Drawing updates and adjustment proposals,
- Prototype manufacturing and first mounting,
- Tests performance and follow-up,
- Support to EASA process
Moreover, through its Design Office, RAFAUT gives more confidence to the aircraft maker for the production phase.
RAFAUT machinery and skills to produce these products are:
Machining and forging:
- Milling cnc (3 axis and 4 axis)
- Turning cnc (two-spindle units)
- Forge (high dimension cylinder parts)
Metal forming and welding:
- Stress-forming, Cold forming, Spinning
- Tig welding (circular and longitudinal)
- Spot or electric welding
Mechanical and structural Assembly:
- Assembly of complex kinematics
- Riveted structural construction
- Aeronautical special processes (installation of bushes, bearings, etc.)
Electrical Assembly & integration
- Wiring and rooting of complex harness
- Integration of electronic components and boxes (weapon calculators, flight control systems)
Final test and delivery to the FAL
- Final electrical (functional, insulation & continuity, GPS, BUS, …) and mechanical tests
- Delivery of the plug & fly system directly to the FAL
