Boeing company Pursues 3-D-Printing Protection with Assembrix Pact

Boeing

 signed an agreement with Israeli company Assembrix Ltd., enabling it to use Assembrix software to manage and protect intellectual property shared with vendors during design and manufacturing.

Assembrix's software will enable Boeing to transmit additive manufacturing design information using secure distribution methods to protect data from being intercepted, corrupted or decrypted throughout the distribution and manufacturing processes.

Boeing is focused on leveraging and accelerating additive manufacturing to transform its production system and support the company's growth. The company currently has additive manufacturing capabilities at 20 sites worldwide and partners with suppliers across the globe to deliver 3-D-printed parts across its commercial, space and defense platforms.

"This agreement expands Boeing's ties to Israeli industry while helping companies like Assembrix expand their business," said David Ivry, president of Boeing Israel.

Earlier this year, Boeing invested in Morf3D  and made a deal with Swiss 3D printer Oerlikon in other efforts to bolster the company's additive manufacturing capabilities.

What is aircraft mainteance?

Aircraft maintenance  Aircraft maintenance is the overhaul, repair, inspection or modification of an aircraft or aircraft component. Maintenance may include such tasks as ensuring compliance with Airworthiness Directives or Service Bulletins. The maintenance of aircraft is highly regulated, in order to ensure safe and correct functioning during flight. National regulations are coordinated under international standards, maintained by bodies such as the International Civil Aviation Organization  (ICAO). The maintenance tasks, personnel and inspections are all tightly regulated and staff must be licensed for the tasks they carry out. Aircraft maintenance activity carried out once the  aircraft  has been removed from the operating environment for scheduled Check activity or for ad hoc defect investigation and rectification .   Aircraft line maintenance  : activity carried out whilst the  aircraft  remains in the operating environme...

Airbus is leading Europe’s research & technology for future large commercial aircraft :cleansky 2

Airbus i going to will play a leading role in the EU’s recently launched CleanSky 2 (CS2) initiative – the follow-up to CleanSky and the most extensive aeronautical research programme ever launched in Europe. CS2 will provide a platform for focused large scale, highly integrated demonstrators with our partners. Within the frame of the CS2 collaborative research platform, Airbus will focus its expertise on the future of large passenger aircraft, for which the main areas will include: new propulsion systems and their integration in future aircraft; the future of the fuselage and passenger cabin; and the ‘cockpit of the future’. “Airbus is proud to further apply its innovative spirit and R&T know-how for the benefit of global air transport,” said Axel Krein, Head of Research & Technology at Airbus. Airbus’ contributions to CS2 will focus on three main platforms: Platform 1: “Advanced Engine and Aircraft Configurations” will provide the environment to explore and validate ...
