Development and Manufacturing of Prototype metallic parts. The aim of this topic is to develop manufacturing processes and techniques pointed to the production of very small batches of metallic parts. The feasibility of these developments will be demonstrated through the smart production of prototype metallic parts for several aeronautical components. The development of these processes should be innovative in order to implement the best performances in the following fields: Low Cost, Energy saving, Flexible and reusable tooling, and Advanced manufacturing techniquesThe manufactured metallic parts will be delivered to the TM for the assembly of “on-ground” and “in-flight” specimens of the next generation optimized wing box.
