MAIN BENEFITS OF USING HIP IN AEROSPACE SECTOR

The main advantages that HIP brings to the components of the aeronautical sector are the following:

Improved mechanical properties:

  • Increases fatigue strength, ductility, toughness and resistance to stress rupture.
  • In diffusion bonding, in addition to welding similar or non-metallic surfaces, without filler materials, it improves the mechanical performance of the part by eliminating casting porosity and obtaining a homogeneous granular structure throughout the part.

It reaches 100% of the theoretical density:

  • Facilitates machining and improves surface finish.
  • Eliminates internal porosity, an essential element to maximize the properties and life of the components.
  • Improves the X-ray standard.
  • Reduces spreading properties.

More efficient production in manufacturing processes:

  • Reduces the rejection rate.
  • Reduces scrap losses when repairing porous castings.

Cost reduction

  • Casting performance is significantly improved, resulting in lower costs and more effective use of raw materials.
  • Reduces welding repair.
  • Restores components, extending their life.

Certificates

The main standards and certificates required by the aeronautical sector are the following:
