Maximum precision and safety – LEANTECHNIK solutions for aerospace technology
Precise movements, absolute reliability and full process control for the world’s most demanding manufacturing environments.
The aerospace industry sets standards in quality, safety and precision. Whether in the construction of aircraft structures, engine assembly or testingsensitive components, every step in the production process must be absolutely reliable and traceable.
With LEANTECHNIK rack and pinion drives and system solutions, you can ensure the precision and flexibility you need to remain competitive in this high-tech industry.
Structure and hull assembly
Precision, stability and absolute repeatability are crucial in aerospace engineering. When joining large assemblies such as fuselage sections or wings, lifgo® rack and pinion drives from LEANTECHNIK ensure precise, synchronised movements even under extreme loads. The robust 4-fold roller guide ensures maximum rigidity and smooth running – even with structures weighing several tonnes. This results in reliable positioning systems for the most demanding assembly processes, where µ-precise movement and maximum operational reliability are required.
Engine assembly
In engine assembly, precision determines safety and performance. With LEANTECHNIK’s DAP 3-axis positioning systems, complex and sensitive components can be moved, aligned and assembled with millimetre precision – without putting strain on the structure. The systems enable flexible adaptation to different engine types and ensure a fast, safe changeover process. In combination with our lifgo® and lean SL® gearboxes, they create precise, resilient and low-maintenance solutions for the most demanding requirements in engine assembly.
Cabin and interior production
Flexibility, ergonomics and precision are crucial in the manufacture of cabin and interior fittings. Whether seats, galleys or cockpit modules – with system solutions from LEANTECHNIK, components can be positioned securely and adapted for assembly. The systems enable quick changeovers for different variants. This shortens assembly times, optimises movement sequences and sustainably increases quality in final assembly.
Test benches and test stands
Absolute process reliability is essential in aerospace engineering. Whether for functional, stress or endurance testing, our systems offer maximum repeatability and stability under dynamic loads. All movements can be precisely tracked and documented, guaranteeing maximum safety and quality in sensitive test environments.
