Components in specific aerospace materials (titanium, Inconel, Waspaloy…): mechanical joints
Industrial need
Producing reliable structural joints on highly stressed components made of aerospace materials such as titanium, Inconel or Waspaloy, while ensuring their resistance under extreme conditions.
IREPA LASER solution
Making the laser welding process more reliable and optimising it for critical aerospace applications. Development focused on process stabilisation, control of thermomechanical phenomena and qualification in line with sector requirements.
Technical challenge
Producing reliable structural joints on highly stressed components made of titanium, Inconel or Waspaloy. These materials, sensitive to thermomechanical stresses, require fine process control to ensure their resistance under extreme conditions.
Results achieved
The project optimised the production line and qualified a robust process suited to the high demands of the aerospace sector.
