Mechanical Design in Aerospace, FHNW School of Engineering and Environment

School of Engineering and Environment


Development of components and automated manufacturing processes for the aerospace industry.

teaser_mas_for.jpeg

We develop components and manufacturing processes for the aerospace industry in order to produce complex components faster and more cost-effectively with consistently high quality through automation.

Aerospace technology occupies a special position within general mechanical engineering. The products are exposed to high mechanical and thermal loads, but must nevertheless be designed in a consistently lightweight manner to ensure functionality and cost-effectiveness. Strict safety standards must be met. Proof of very high product reliability is also of central importance.

Development
  • System engineering based on requirements lists and interface documents
  • Creation of designs using materials and processes in accordance with aerospace guidelines
  • Aerospace-compliant finite element models and simulations in NASTRAN
  • Strength verification and reports in accordance with international standards, e.g., ECSS (European Cooperation for Space Standardization)
 Manufacturing
  • Production of structural components and assembly of modules
  • Development and manufacture of test equipment
Vericifation
  • Conducting static and dynamic acceptance tests
