MECHANICAL ASSEMBLIES
Avior manufactures mechanical assemblies that range from a simple bellcrank to more complex flight control assemblies. Part of these assemblies are considered flight-critical components and require a high level of accreditation from our customers. Each part is manufactured using frozen-planning that is reviewed by the customer. Each detail in the assembly requires serialization to ensure traceability at a detail level and goes through a strict dimensional and functional inspection.
CAPABILITIES AND APPROVED SPECIAL PROCESSES
The flight-critical mechanical assemblies often require a variety of special processes that require customer approvals. The following specialized processes are all performed in-house.
Bearing installation
- Staking and swaging (torque testing)
- Proof Load testing (max. 3000 lbs)
- Component installation
- Faying surface and fillet sealing
- Torquing of bolts and nuts
- Lock wire
- Electrical bonding preparation
- Hardware installation
- Nutplates and standoffs
- Hi-lok, Hi-Lite, rivets and Cherry Max
- Bushing installation
- Thermal fit and interference fit
- Honing after installation
- Mechanical bonding
- Adhesive film bonding
- Surface preparation
- 2-components adhesive
Wiring harness and assembly
- Electrical testing
