With an intense focus on minimising component weight, airframe ribs have traditionally been machined from aluminium. While this is still common, breakthroughs in materials technology are driving a rise in the use of aluminium lithium and composite materials. As a result, manufacturers producing these parts need solutions tailored to several types of material properties.
