SMC Molds’ Application in Aircraft Manufacturing

As a mold which is usually used in the manufacture of complex parts or products. SMC molds also play an important role in the aircraft manufacturing industry.

SMC mold is a mold used to manufacture complex shapes, usually used in the manufacture of complex parts or products. An airplane, on the other hand, is a complex mechanical device that requires many parts to build. Therefore, SMC molds also play an important role in the aircraft manufacturing industry.

It is calculated that nearly 10 tons of SMC materials used by BOEING 777 aircraft. The wings and empennage of the “Seasar” CD2 of Dornier Starfish Malaysia are made of SMC mold.

Here are some examples of using SMC products to manufacture aircraft parts:

1. Aircraft shell: large and complex shell parts, such as aircraft fuselage, wings, empennage, etc.

2. Bulkheads and interior trim: such as seats, cargo walls, toilet partitions, etc.

3. Engine cover: SMC molds have excellent heat resistance and flame retardancy, and are suitable for high temperature and high pressure environments.

4. Landing gear cover plate: SMC mold has the characteristics of high strength and light weight, which can improve the fuel efficiency and performance of the aircraft.

5. Auxiliary materials for aircraft parts: such as the skeleton of aircraft flaps, flap extension mechanisms, mounting brackets, etc. Although these parts are not directly exposed to the outside, they are also important components of the aircraft.
