FLYING WITH PROFILE - Bohler Profil

The aviation industry is one of the most innovative and has the highest safety requirements worldwide. Special profiles made from highly complex alloys play a crucial role in the construction of a wide variety of components.

ENGINE COMPONENTS MADE OF NICKEL-BASED ALLOYS AND OTHER SPECIAL MATERIALS

The mechanical stress on engines is enormous. Only the best materials such as nickel-based alloys and other special materials are used here without compromise.

Only the best materials such as nickel-based alloys and other special materials are used here without compromise.

Die mechanische Beanspruchung von Triebwerken ist enorm. Kompromisslos finden hier nur die besten Materialien wie Nickelbasislegierungen und andere Sonderwerkstoffe ihre Verwendung. So entstehen unter anderem Spezialprofile für die Produktion von stumpfgeschweißten und bearbeiteten statischen Turbinenringen sowie für die Produktion von statischen Triebwerksschaufeln.

Our special profiles for the manufacture of engine components are used on the following aircraft and helicopter types:

GE90 (Boeing 777)
TP400 (Airbus A400M)
GP7200 (Airbus A380)
Leap 1A (Airbus A320neo)
CFM56-7 (Boeing 737)
PW 1100G (Airbus A319 / A320 / A321neo)
Adour (BAE Hawk / SEPECAT Jaguar / Mitsubishi F-1 / Mitsubishi F-2)
Makila (Eurocopter Super Puma / Eurocopter Cougar)

Application examples:

Special profiles for the production of butt-welded and machined static turbine rings
Special profiles for the production of static engine guide vanes

Extremen Beanspruchungen bei gleichzeitig niedrigem Gewicht gerecht zu werden ist eine besonders heikle Herausforderung, der sich voestalpine BÖHLER Profil gerne stellt. Der Schlüssel liegt in speziell für die Luftfahrt entwickelten Geometrien und Legierungen wie z. B. Titan-Stahl und anderen Sonderwerkstoffen. So entstehen Spezialprofile mit einzigartigen Eigenschaften für die Produktion von Sitzschienen, welche in Frachtflugzeugen zur Befestigung von Containern dienen, Spezialprofile für die Produktion von Landeklappenführungsschienen und Dichtprofile für Ladeluken.

STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS MADE OF SPECIAL MATERIALS

Meeting extreme loads with low weight at the same time is a particularly tricky challenge that voestalpine BÖHLER Profil is happy to take on. The key lies in geometries and alloys specially developed for aviation, such as titanium steel and other special materials. This creates special profiles with unique properties for the production of seat rails, which are used to fasten containers in cargo aircraft, special profiles for the production of guide rails for landing flaps and sealing profiles for loading hatches.

Our special profiles for structural components are installed in the following aircraft types, among others:

Airbus A320 & A321
Airbus A300-600F
Airbus A330-200F

Application examples:

Special profiles for the production of seat rails used to secure containers in cargo aircraft (Airbus Part No. A537-74604-200-00)
Special profiles for the production of landing flap guide rails
Sealing profiles for hatches
