Aerospace & Aviation

Prioritizing customer safety means making precision parts right the first time.

For the past several decades, aerospace and aviation, and defense manufacturers like Northrop Grumman and Flight Safety International have relied on the accuracy of DATRON machines to produce illuminated instrumentation, cockpit control panels, support frames, seating components, and even parts for fighter jet ejector seats. You will wow your CMM department by making complex, intricate, precision parts with minimal to zero rejects by using DATRON’s German-engineered machining systems.

Make Tight Tolerance Parts Once, and Improve Your Turn-Around Times

Are you looking for a high-speed machining system that meets your tight tolerances?

Traditional machines can be challenging to use for intricate and complex parts. Heavy machines are designed for various applications but are compromised for making small, detailed parts. DATRON machines produce those complex parts better, faster, and within your high tolerance demands. The DATRON systems are so accurate that you can use the touch probe to measure the surface precisely, then engrave to a precise depth of a layer of paint within a multi-layer paint design used in backlit cockpit panels.

In terms of spindle speed, DATRON is faster than most other machine tools

Our other VMC doesn’t offer anything higher than 15,000 RPM and other machines of this size just don’t have the speed. Plus, the accuracy of DATRON is outstanding.

Where Quality Meets Safety

It’s amazing how much work goes into aerospace instruments or a finished military part. But, if that’s what keeps us all safe then it’s worth the effort — and if the quality of this part is critical to that safety, then DATRON is literally a lifesaver.
