- Performing some analysis, test and modelling for both isotropic and composite materials including static, strength, frequency, buckling, fatigue (Safe-life and damage tolerance),tensile, hardness, fatigue test, stress corrosion cracking, electrical conductivity, metallography test
SCA structural & analysis team with related academic studies (with majority of mechanical & aero-structural fields) and industrial experience are involved in projects related to aircraft structures and substructures including new structure design, minor repair design, major repair design and installation design. In this regard, a variety of analysis, test and modelling for both isotropic and composite materials are defined as below:
- B737 and A320 passenger cabin LED Lights
- Wifi IFE system (Portable and Installed)
- EFB (Electronic Flight Bag) power supply
- SSPRAM (Solid State Pre-recorded Announcement and Music) for enhancing traditional aircrafts cabin
- And what ever we receive from our customers as a request for a solution
Electrical System department is mostly focus on developing design data for products relating to SCA's upcoming POA. the team have been working on generating design data package including compliance documents, drawings, test plans and etc for:
Production Services
SCA has applied to ANAC (Portuguese Civil Aviation Authority) to obtain POA certificate. We have plan to receive the Approval until late 2023. SCA has successfully developed aircraft's structural items, including primary and secondary structural parts and finally accomplished to produce the prototypes of those items.
SCA is also focused on AD Kit preparation for airlines and to manufacture in-house the required simple CNC and Sheet metal parts.
our own DOA team members together with our competent DOA partners, are the core initiation of thoughts and ideas to develop products in demand. Regardless of what we have already developed, we are ready to perform a quick and robust R&D activities to develop your demanded parts and to manage it until the end of the production phase.
Our design organization and production department are well qualified for designing, analysis, test, certifying and manufacturing of all types of aircraft's primary structural parts. Static, Fatigue and Damage Tolerance evaluation will be considered and calculated for each item of structures by SCA Design Organization.
We offer our honorable customers the following production services:
- CNC machining and milling
- Sheet metal working including extrusion laser cutting and bending
- Coating, plating and painting
- Heat treatment
- Shot peening
- Performing all required verification tests including hardness, conductivity and tensile strength.
