ENGINEERING

Co-design

Alfa Meccanica supports its Customers with “co-design” activity with the target of obtaining the best compromise between the engineering requirements and the associated manufacturing costs, mitigating risks of scraps and non quality.

Industrialization and simulation

Alfa Meccanica’s Production Engineering Department set ups the machining strategies, designs the needed manufacturing tools with CATIA V5, proceedes with CNC programming and Vericut simulations (using the last releases of the most advanced software), before starting up the manufacturing operations. 

ASSEMBLY and TESTING

Complex assemblies

The assembly operations are carried out in a dedicated and segregated FOD area. The most common activities are assembling of bushings, ball bearings, rivets, inserts and nuts. Our operators have the capability, the training and the skills to manage complex assemblies and complex MGSE.

Hydraulic Testing

Oil nozzles, oil jets, spray bars are tested on a dedicated test bench for flow, pressure measurements and target achievement, simulating the running condition of an aircraft.

MANUFACTURING

Turning, milling, EDM

Alfa Meccanica carries out internally the following main processes
• Big Size 5 axis CNC High speed Milling (overall maximum dimension 8000 x 3500 x 1500mm)
• CNC Center Turning and Multi Axis Turning (overall maximum dimensions D. 660 x 1585mm)
• Honeycomb panels Trim&Dril Capability, up to 6000 x 3000 mm
• Electrical Discharge Machining (die sinking and wire cutting)
• Assembling Operations

Alfa Meccanica is supported by a network of properly selected and certified Suppliers to perform several operations and special processes.

Metrology and dimensional inspection

Alfa Meccanica Inspection Room, equipped with a temperature/humidity control system, has the most advanced measuring gauges (optical gauges, outside/inside depth micrometer gauges, calipers, etc.), and three C.M.M. ( with maximum capability of 4000 x 2000 x 1500 mm).

SPECIAL PROCESSES
