Precision Parts Washing for the Aerospace Industry

The aerospace industry is always at the forefront of technological advancements, constantly striving for more innovative materials and more effective manufacturing processes. However, given the nature of the application, safety is always an imperative, which also controls the way that processes evolve and the verification of materials that can be used. Every element of manufacturing must be consistently repeatable and auditable to give total confidence in the end result.

These same disciplines are required of the wash systems that operate as part of aerospace manufacturing processes, whether supporting the manufacture of engines, actuation systems, sensors, or simple fasteners.

MecWash Systems Ltd has worked with major aerospace customers across the globe to develop efficient bespoke parts washing processes and systems to drive the effectiveness and reliability of their cleaning operations. This experience helps us to understand the complexity of the challenge and the unique requirements of many applications, which may affect the process options and chemistry used. For example, some components could be damaged by ultrasonics, excessive pressure or poor fixturing. Others are incompatible with particular chemistries or temperatures, which may cause longer term reliability problems. But despite potential constraints, high cleanliness specifications must always be delivered.

John Pattison, Managing Director of MecWash,

comments: “MecWash customers include some of the most prominent blue-chip aerospace companies such as BAE, Meggitt, UTC and SPS. Our team has developed system solutions to address the cleaning challenges of each individual application.
