Welding

The pressure tolerance of any given component aboard an aircraft is vital to ensure proper function of fluid management systems at altitude. NMG has 25 years of experience with pressurized welded tank applications and tooling. Our aviation welding expertise extends to virtually any variety of pressurized and unpressurized vessel that may be utilized in an aircraft water or waste management system.

Aerospace rigid tubes range from simple to complex, with size, radius, bends, materials, and finishes varying based on the application. NMG has a trusted provider of NADCAP welding services for rigid tubes used in water management, crew seat frames, and other applications throughout the aircraft.

Many aircraft water and waste systems utilize lightweight tanks with thin walls to save space. The aerospace welding experts at NMG have unparalleled skill in welding titanium and stainless steel tanks that comply with AWS D17.1. With our precision tooling and weld fixture design expertise, we can achieve incredibly thin walls, often 0.030 inches or thinner, that perform through highly variable environmental conditions.

Meticulous construction is key to producing an aircraft seat frame that is durable enough for rigorous field conditions and stores easily when needed. NMG has been making lightweight welded tube frames for aircraft seats for many years. We’ve also mastered the development of reliable folding mechanisms that perform consistently throughout their service life.

Welding is a versatile technique NMG has leveraged to produce rugged, high-performance aerospace components of all types. NMG will work directly with you to design and produce custom welded components for your platform and application.

In many aerospace applications, space is limited, and aerospace tubing often must be bent to fit—without sacrificing flow or function. NMG offers precision tube bending for aerospace tubing. Our aerospace welding expertise lies in calculating and producing the exact offset needed for your specific application.
