Leonardo, a global high-tech company and one of the key players in Aerospace, Defense and Security, made a huge announcement at the 2017 Paris air show that should highly interest the military regarding aerospace parts. The brand new Mirach 40 otherwise known as the M-40 is an unmanned aircraft system based on the company’s already existing Mirach 100/5 target drone which already has acquired a place as the common threat simulator of the international Armed Forces (Military) including France, Italy and the U.K. The M-40 is a remotely-piloted aerial system (RPAS) that assists the Military in training by simulating a variety of airborne threat targets. This drone allows the military to “shoot down” the reusable M-40 in practical situations, allowing them to train and prepare a wide variety of weapon systems including Aerospace. This aerospace drone will allow customers such as the military to ‘do more with less’ by providing an aerospace performance like the Mirach 100/5 but at significantly reduced cost comparable to competitor, making it the perfect option for the military to use for training.

This new aerospace technology makes it very easy for the military to use because it requires very little piolet training, making the switch to the M-40 almost seamless. The M-40 aerospace drone will also allow the military to actively switch between drones allowing for a mixed fleet if desired. Not only is the M-40 offered at a competitive price, it all comes with a resourceful range of high-performance features. These features include low-altitude ‘sea skimming’, and the ability to execute high-g maneuvers, factors that are very important when the military considers purchasing affordable aerospace technology. The M-40 also has refined aerodynamics, allowing it to reach speeds that most two engine systems cannot. To make the M-40 one of the most efficient aerospace products on the market, it operates without pyrotechnics, even for launch and parachute deployment, something very important to consider. The M-40 is an aerospace product that would be very useful to the military.

There is a wide range of fasteners in the world of aviation industry for aircraft, rockets, and missiles. Such as screws, rivets, nuts, pins, bolts are used in all. They are extremely critical mechanical components of the aircraft and are required to function in the most extreme situations. On an average, 2.4 million fasteners are used in Boeing 787 aircraft. More than 3 million aircraft fasteners were used by The Boeing Company for manufacturing Boeing 747 jet. More than 1/5th of those parts are structural bolts. The airlines are progressively looking for aircraft with minimal possible maintenance repair, and with better performance. The fasteners play an extremely vital role. The aviation fastener forecast the growing demand of next generation aircraft and technological advancement would lead the market to grow at a CAGR of 7.68% in the future. The Commercial Aviation Fasteners Market currently holds around 60% of the total market, and is expected to reach 62% in the next period.

One of the major reason for the growth in the market share of the commercial aerospace sector would be the increase in the aviation sector and demand for newer fleets in the Asia Pacific region. Unlike the North American and European region which are exceedingly well associated by air, most countries in the Asia Pacific region have limited connectivity. A big part of the aviation industry forecast has to do with limited air traffic and infrastructure. But due to the rising excessive incomes in the region, air travel is becoming increasingly popular. As a result, Asia Pacific controls the highest share in the orders for jets in the projected period. The Asia Pacific region will also account for the heightened defense spending which will expand the aviation fasteners market.

Spherical roller bearings which have been optimized to allow wind turbines to generate energy more efficiently and reliably. These bearings will make mounting significantly easier by combining a tapered roller bearing unit, with a direct flange mounting facility. A wind turbine and rolling bearings are subjected to operating conditions and dynamic loads from the forces of wind acting directly on the rotor bearing support in a wind turbine unit. A new compact and easy to mount bearing unit is on the market. The FAG flanged bearing unit allows the bearing to be safely supported due to the tight axial guidance of the rotor and and the large pressure angle. The bearing uses grease lubrication and seals, is supplied pre-made, and contains double row tapered roller bearing unit in the O arrangement. The outer ring is flange-mounted to the nacelle, the inner rings are flange-mounted to the rotor. The grease sensor is made to order to a specific type of grease and provides exact measurement of the water content, mechanical wear, as well as the temperature, and turbidity in the bearing support. This option is called the FAG GreaseCheck.

This unit is connected by a cable, syncs the information, measurements and transmits the findings as an analog signal. The central lubricating system via the control room receives the the signal from the grease sensor. Thus insuring the bearings are re-lubricated at greater quantities and shorter intervals to improve the condition of the grease. This process is done despite the damage of the seals and to protect the bearings from the damage of grease failure. This design by Schaeffler is a huge step forwards increasing the axial load carrying capacity and the operating life of the main bearings in wind turbines. It allows a smaller contact angle on the bearing row and a larger contact angle to be used. The improved load distribution has been developed from this production of lower contact pressures and little to no axial displacement.

In an ideal way, Franke wire race bearings are made by combining aluminum components, construction that is lightweight. Franke wire race bearings range extends from the element that houses of raceways and rolling elements that complete the system. These bearings allow the free choice of material and the individual design of the mating structure. This application makes it possible to tailor to the requirements of the application. The key here give the customer free reign to use their choice of materials such as plastic, carbon, or aluminum for the production of the enclosing structure. Most Franke customers have a high potential for saving by receiving pre-finished systems, thus saving drive energy and weight. You can also purchase a complete set of Franke wire race bearings that consist of the control, drive, and bearing.

A conventional steel bearing without the drive is much heavier than a lightweight Franke bearing with direct drive. The efficiency of the system is increased by there not being a need for additional components to mechanically set the bearing in transition. The engine is also designed smaller to give it the opportunity to run at higher dynamics and speed. The Franke wire-race bearing enables an individual design of the enclosing construction, as well as a free choice of material. That is why it is possible to manufacture the housing components of the bearing in an extremely thin-walled manner and tailored to the adjacent construction. Racing has always been an experimental field for innovative solutions. It appears the Franke race wire bearings are the new and improved bearings on the market for the near future.

Scaheffler’s INA linear technology is a newly-developed, six-row linear recirculating ball bearing and guide way assembly that are highly precise assemblies that run extremely soundlessly, which work efficiently in a measuring machine and well-established products.

The infeed zones in linear recirculating ball bearing and guide way assemblies, that is to say the area in which the rolling elements are conducted into the load carrying element until the load is fully applied is a critical factor for the life-limited mechanisms. They guarantee that the load is not suddenly applied to the rolling element yet progressively conducted. By refining the infeed zone design on the carriage saddle plates, INA Linear Technology has now accomplished in increasing the load ratings. The six-row KUSE linear recirculating ball bearing and guide way assemblies increased up to 44%, depending on the size and design. Due to the major increase in performance, the redesigned KUSE series has been awarded the Schaffler X-life quality mark. Six-row linear recirculating ball bearing and guide way assemblies have a high level of firmness and extremely low pulse amplitude (83%). They can be used in functions that tolerate slight pulsations and require high precision.

The recirculating rolling elements generally prevent a continuous amount of fully loaded rolling elements present in the load zone of the carriages at once. Depending on effectiveness within in the rolling elements during the load zone, the carriage balances deflections along the stroke to varying degrees causing a slight pulsing balancing movement in the load direction of the carriage. This particular movement is called stroke pulsation. Pulse amplitudes of up to 1 micrometer are not uncommon for a single ball. For the new KUSE X-life, the outline of the infeed zone has been improved so that the stroke pulsation is reduced, especially at higher loads.

KUSE X-life linear recirculating ball bearing and guide way assemblies are the highest in firmness and load carrying capacities based on balls currently on the market. Six rows, rather than the usual four, of balls support the loads. This particular arrangement of ball rows makes KUSE X-life designs perfect for combined load directions. KUSE X-life six-row linear recirculating ball bearing and guide way assemblies are appropriate for high-precision applications in electronics production, mold production, microscopy, optics, applications with high load carrying capacity, and operating performance. Here at ASAP Semi we like things to be improved so we have reasons for why customers need the newer version. We like our customers to have the updated version of any part being used on their vehicle.
