Prima Power for aerospace and energy industry

Find out what we do for the aerospace and energy industry

The majority of commercial engine manufacturers and their supply chains worldwide currently use our machines for precision manufacturing processes.

Increasingly, manufacturers are updating their traditional manual welding, drilling, and cutting process by using a laser to weld, drill, and cut their 3D parts. The global market for gas turbine engines for commercial aircraft is expected to reach a CAGR of 5.52% (2018-2022, source: Technavio Research).

We understand the main challenge this sector has to face is the qualification of the processes. Machines used for drilling, cutting, and welding applications must be particularly precise, stable, and reliable to maintain the certified parameters to ensure quality work while also avoiding waste and costly rework.

And we also know that you need intensive support from your machine supplier. This must be provided by consultants who know your case well and have highly specialized technical know-how.

Process control is the driving force when manufacturing components for the aerospace sector.

Documentation supplied with the machine must be clear, accurate, and exhaustive. Training must be highly customized so that the company can get the most out of individual systems.​

The in-depth knowledge of these dynamics allows Prima Power machines to be used in the aerospace industry in a variety of applications, mainly for making cooling holes in the hot parts of turbine engines and for manufacturing complex parts requiring cutting and welding processes.​

Solutions

Find your ideal solution

Find out how our systems work and how our range sets us apart from everyone else.

Our machines guarantee precision and repeatability. These can be equipped with one or more numerically controlled rotary tables to machine cylindrical parts for the turbine even during loading/unloading phases in masked time.

Our LASERDYNE® precision 2D and 3D laser processing machines are ideal for laser drilling, laser welding and laser cutting applications with the high accuracy required by the industry standards.​

Our machines are capable of measuring/identifying workpieces through the use of integrated sensors (optical and/or capacitive). In this way, the accuracy of the machine is optimized without the need for expensive equipment. In addition, compensation for any errors in the workpiece shape is allowed.

Our experts are highly specialised in this area: they provide added value and help you maximise profit.

Our qualified services complement our advanced technology and are the key to improved productivity and higher profit.

All our systems are designed and developed based on the “Green Means concept”, which means they are productive and eco-sustainable at the same time.
