Automation in Manufacturing
MRAS, a part of ST Engineering's global network of aerospace facilities and offices, utilizes some of the most advanced automated technologies to manufacture the A320neo Leap-1A Nacelle. This includes one of the fastest Automated Fiber Placement (AFP) machines to lay up composite structure as well as a multi-functional assembly robot to drill, countersink and install fasteners. These technologies are fundamental to MRAS’ future development and growth.
