Aerospace Machining Solutions: Materials, Technologies & Equipment
Hyperion Materials & Technologies leverages material science and engineering expertise to support the aerospace manufacturing industry in specifying and selecting hard materials to achieve quality, productivity, and delivery goals. Each component of an aerospace system has unique challenges in achieving productive, precise machining. From the workpiece material and surface finish to the cutting angle and chip evacuation, Hyperion analyzes the right materials to overcome common challenges in machining specific aerospace components. Discover the details for your application in the new guide: Aerospace Manufacturing.
Customized, Approved Tooling Solutions
Hyperion’s tooling blanks are developed for a wide range of workpiece materials including heat-resistant superalloys (HRSA), titanium, carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP), and hardened steel. These challenging workpieces are the basis for blisks, shafts, frames, and gear systems that require innovative tooling to meet production demands. Tools made with Hyperion’s carbide, polycrystalline diamond (PCD), or polycrystalline cubic boron nitride (PCBN) easily slot into existing applications as industry-approved grades. Customized tooling blanks offer the ability to develop proprietary tooling that reaches new levels of production efficiency for OEMs.
Reliable Carbide Components
Beyond tooling blanks, Hyperion directly serves OEMs with custom-designed tungsten carbide wear components for fuel management, air conditioning, pump, and compressor systems. With a longer lifespan than the steel traditionally used in aerospace subassemblies, carbide components deliver additional power and wear resistance. Precision machining capabilities, with tolerances down to the micron level, ensure components have the reliability required for consistent system operation.
Meeting Industry-High Demand
Hyperion is prepared to drive production efficiency in aerospace manufacturing. A continued focus on grade development, material analysis, and laboratory testing confirms Hyperion materials deliver the tool life and machining quality required to meet the demand of increased aerospace production. Application engineers are ready to partner on custom solutions to develop tooling and components that achieve customer goals.
