The coordination of design and manufacturing between aircraft forgings and other components is necessary to ensure the operation and safety of the entire aircraft system. In actual production, this collaborative design and manufacturing approach has been widely used.
Taking a certain type of commercial aircraft as an example, the production of forgings for the aircraft is interrelated and mutually influenced by the design and manufacturing of other components. For example, in the forging production of the wing, it needs to coordinate with the internal structure of the wing, slats and other accessories, to ensure that all components are properly matched and improve the overall performance of the aircraft. In addition, in the forging production of landing gear, it needs to coordinate with the body structure and various electrical power, oil systems and other components to ensure a smooth and safe landing process. To meet these requirements, aircraft manufacturing companies typically use advanced technologies such as virtual integration, CAD/CAM processes, and 3D printing to simulate various scenarios, adjust plans, and accelerate design and manufacturing processes.
In the coordination of design and manufacturing between aircraft forgings and other components, quality and safety are obviously at the core of considerations for manufacturing companies and scientific and technological workers. Even with the most advanced technology, it is necessary to strictly control each process, personnel qualifications, and certification to ensure that the manufacture of all components meets relevant standards and quality requirements. In actual production, aircraft manufacturing companies usually adopt systems such as approval controls, self-inspection controls, and mutual inspection controls to perform strict inspections and monitoring of each production process and improve corresponding document recordings and technical files to improve the controllability and transparency of the process.
Based on this, the coordination of design and manufacturing between aircraft forgings and other components has become an indispensable part of modern aircraft manufacturing. This collaborative design and manufacturing approach can avoid conflicts and contradictions between various components, optimize the performance and safety of the entire system, provide more intelligent aviation products and services, and will be an important direction for the future development of aircraft manufacturing.
