Sheet Metal Fabrication for the Aerospace Industry
Hydroforming Sheet Metal
Requirements for aircraft and aerospace industry parts hinge on precision and versatility. The parts’ dimensions must be precise and long lasting, regardless of the temperature, humidity and mechanical stresses under which they are placed. Jones Metal’s aerospace sheet metal fabrication is here to meet the rigorous standards required for manufactured parts within the industry.
With decades of experience in the aerospace metal fabrication industry, Jones Metal’s production processes meet project demands while providing the process documentation, quality assurance and efficient delivery that such projects require. Our aircraft sheet metal fabrication and aerospace sheet metal fabrication capabilities are able to meet the demands of our valued clients across the industry.
Aerospace hydroforming requires tight tolerances and precise finishing.
With broad aerospace hydroforming capabilities that include sheet metal fabrication for aerospace, Jones Metal delivers on industry demands. Metal parts that have undergone hydroforming have minimal-to-no surface imperfections, which means they are ready for their final application with fewer finishing processes after forming. Aerospace sheet metal forming by way of hydroforming also works on a wide range of materials, including aluminum, aluminum alloys, stainless steel, nickel alloys, copper, brass, bronze, and even titanium.
These pieces must be able to withstand atmospheric conditions, such as temperature and humidity changes, and physical stress from vibrations and sustained use. Irregularities and vulnerabilities must be minimized, which our production line that handles sheet metal fabrication for aerospace is designed to do. Multiple draws on the hydroforming machine are used to gradually work towards the planned shape and design in the process of aerospace sheet metal fabrication. This is followed by cutting and machining. These two processes place finishing touches on the part so that it is ready for downstream assembly during the.
Sheet metal fabrication for aerospace via hydroforming achieves high detail, quality, form and finish.
Well-built processes can yield the highest detail, quality, form and finish in aerospace sheet metal fabrication via hydroforming, which are absolutely vital for reliable, safe aircraft. Aircraft sheet metal fabrication is a fine, detailed process that Jones Metal is able to apply our 90+ years of experience to, ensuring that our customers receive the highest quality parts.
Each part is individually inspected during production to ensure that the highest quality standards are met throughout the aerospace sheet metal forming. Our capacity to produce both individual parts as well as larger batches (numbering in several hundreds of units) means that we can accommodate virtually any project size—and our in-house capabilities keep costs low and quality high.
Jones Metal takes into account every aspect of the parts production process when it comes to sheet metal fabrication for aerospace. Hydroforming is used to accommodate complex parts without compromising material integrity or finish, while fluid cell forming is used for larger parts up to 6 feet in length. Our aerospace metal fabrication and aircraft sheet metal fabrication is a tried and true process, guaranteeing you the parts you need in a timely manner.
Jones Metal is committed to excellent service and timely work.
