The United States leads the world in aerospace and defense technology. A small group of advanced manufacturers are responsible for developing, designing, and manufacturing innovative solutions for the industry. These contributions include cutting-edge defense capabilities, space technology, and highly developed aircraft.
At Advanced Manufacturing Development (AMD), we specialize in the custom- built assembly machines and assembly lines for the manufacturing of parts for ships, aircraft, and any device. Our automation expertise allows us to reduce the time and cost of producing part-specific mechanical components like switches, and connectors for the aerospace and defense industry. AMD’s expertise in delivering custom assembly solutions to the industry and a vast catalog of automation machinery helps us provide turnkey solutions to small and large-scale manufacturers.
AMD Aerospace & Defense Industry Components
At Advanced Manufacturing Development, we rely on years of expertise in designing specialty manufacturing equipment and assembly lines. Our experts regularly deliver optimized solutions for producing switches, connectors, harnesses, and a range of components for the aerospace and defense industry.
A switch is a simple device for opening and closing the connection of a circuit. Pressure switches are a type of switch present in any modern aircraft for turning systems on and off. They are vital to various aircraft functions, including cabin comfort controls, propulsion, water, lubrication, fuel, instrumentation, and indicators used in flight control. As aircraft manufacturers push the limits of fuel performance and flight length, pressure switches become crucial to improving reliability and efficiency.
Connectors ensure that two parts of a circuit remain in contact. They maintain a connection between electrical devices with optimal safety, performance, and reliability. Connectors are fundamental to weaponry, grounding systems, avionics, propulsion, and control systems in the aerospace and defense sector. Aerospace engineers design connectors that perform under the stresses and harsh conditions of flight.
Harnesses are assemblies for wires or cables that facilitate the transmission of electrical power or signals. They are a versatile and flexible solution that saves time and money when installing components like avionics. Harnesses rely on meaningful input from the customer during the design and manufacturing phase to precisely meet client specifications. Significant technical research and certification are also critical to ensure the assembly will guarantee optimal performance.
At AMD, we rely on the strictest standards when providing general assembly machines for the aerospace and defense industry. Our exhaustive inspections yield the highest reliability and a final product that meets the client’s drawing and contractual specifications.
