Original Equipment Manufacturer of Roll Form
Our specialty is Aerospace roll forming, a process in which coil or strip metal is continuously passes through shaping rollers and dies to form the desired profile. We have the ability to manufacture aerospace roll form sections upto 75ft in length. We can accommodate bespoke one off sections and production runs. Our roll form section can be manufactured in various grades of Aluminum, Steel & Titanium with consistant tolerances as close as +/- 1 degree.
Additional Processes
Cut to Size & Shearing
Upon your request, material can be cut down to size allowing us to support smaller requirements as well as save you time and money on shipping. Whether it be cutting extrusion in half or shearing sheet metal into smaller sections, we are capable of meeting your most crucial cut tolerances with precision.
Custom Packing & PVC Lamination
We offer custom packing on all material in order to secure shipments via air, ground or sea. Export Boxing and PVC Lamination are also available for extra protection and durability. All Export Boxes comply with each countries specific requirements and regulations so we may ship to any desired destination with ease.
Heat Treating & Annealing
Heat treating is done to aluminum as a precision process to improve mechanical properties. It is done in a furnace providing the correct thermal process to maintain continuity, uniform temperatures and cycle times. The correct outcome must be achieved. Annealing is done to soften the material, reduce stress and allow for increased workability.
Precision Grinding
We are able to provide many different grinding processes including surface grinding, bar grinding, regrinding, sharpening and several other high precision variations. We can work on aerospace metals including bar stock, liners, plates and blocks.
Chemical Milling
Chemical milling or industrial etching is the process manufacturing process of using baths of temperature-regulated etching chemicals to remove material to create an object with the desired shape. It is mostly used on metals, though other materials are increasingly important.
Polishing
AAA Air Support provide a full range of turning, grinding and polishing services. Our state of the art lathes, grinding and polishing machines ensure consistent quality production.
Trepanning Machining
We offer trepanning machining on alloys and materials. It is the process of deep hole drilling which, unlike gundrilling, leaves the core of the material intact and eligible for reuse.
Aluminum Passivation
Aluminum Passivation is the process of anodizing the aluminum alloy to provide an aluminum oxide coating. This aluminum oxide coating helps prevent further oxidation and corrosion.
Ultrasonic Testing
Ultrasonic Testing is a non-destructive way to test for any invisible defects in metal alloys and any internal flaws. This helps insure that our products are fit and ready for use in the most testing of applications.
