Side shells, wing shells and fuselage structures are made of CFK, GFK, aluminium or organic sheets and get connected during production. Sealants are used to seal the connection surfaces. These are usually two-component polysulphides, which have to be applied in different geometries. Typical applications are: Fillet sealings, oversealings, interface sealings and seal caps. Due to their properties, polysulfides require very low pressure and shear handling. The compressibility of the fillers contained in the medium requires a high level of expertise and a coherent overall system from material removal to application. With manual application, long production times and high material ejection have a negative influence on the complete process. Complex quality standards are required due to the risk of human error. With the in-house developments of the vipro-DUOMIX from ViscoTec, this process can be depicted fully automatically. The individual nozzle design is also adapted to each application. The result is a controlled dosage in compliance with the specifications and at the same time the highest repeat accuracy.

A compact EO/IR gimbal camera system designed for UAVs, unmanned surface vehicles, and defense platforms. The system integrates a QVGA/VGA-class LWIR thermal imager and a high-resolution EO camera within a stabilized gimbal, ensuring reliable performance in diverse environmental conditions. Optimized for ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance) missions, the system provides detection, recognition, and identification (DRI) capabilities with low-SWaP (Size, Weight, and Power) characteristics.

Short-Wave Infrared(SWIR) Camera is an imaging device that detects reflected light in the 0.9–1.7 μm wavelength range. Compared to visible light, SWIR enables longer-distance observation and provides high-resolution imagery even in degraded visual environments, such as fog, haze, or dust, where conventional visible cameras cannot operate effectively. These capabilities are realized through the use of InGaAs sensors, offering precise detection and surveillance that are unattainable with visible-light imaging. Accordingly, SWIR cameras serve as an advanced imaging solution not only for military, security, and disaster response applications, but also for industrial inspection and research fields.

The focus on buy-to-fly ratios highlights the contributing role that near net shape processing can offer. This has undoubtedly been a driver in increasing this service offering from AMA. As a major contributor in the aircraft manufacturing supply chain, this is a key area of development for AMA and its companies. Customers are increasingly looking to optimise their production processes. This is primarily driven by the need to maximise their own spindle time for core business activities, with AMA therefore undertaking some of the machining processes. It can take many forms, from simple cutting to more intricate processing in which near net shape pieces are supplied. Even in AMA businesses whose business is predominantly transactional (so called ‘spot business’) rather than contractual, the processing element is increasing. Pre-machined kits of parts to individual specifications are becoming more commonplace. In addition to freeing up time for customers and OEMs to focus on more profitable final processing, near net shape processes can improve product quality, reduce variability and enhance component design functionality. As the industry continues to search for ways to lower buy-to-fly ratios and reduce the amount of waste, near net shape processing will have a greater role to play.

The HXB15 Connectors, featuring expanded beam technology, hermaphroditic connection, rugged construction for field deployment and hybrid configurations, have been designed for harsh environment applications such as military tactical communications, avionics, offshore systems, outside broadcast, mining and plant.

The expanded beam technology uses expanded and collimated beams to couple optical fibers without any contact. It could allow for optics to be used in areas that have been quite restrictive due to presence of damage or contamination at the fiber end. Hermaphroditic connector design enables fast deployment by daisy-chaining multiple cable segments. HXB15 connectors also enable transfer of electrical signal or power using hybrid insert configuration.
