Conference
Focus

 new materials, manufacturing technologies, assembly technologies
and supply chain management

The aerospace industry has changed significantly in recent years...

New aircraft structures have been developed and aero-engines are lighter and more environmentally friendly. In both areas new materials and manufacturing methods are used in an attempt to get maximum performance for minimum cost. At the same time the structure of the industry has changed and there has been a move from large companies designing, manufacturing components and assembling aircraft to one of large global supply chains headed by large system integrators. All these changes have forced engineers and managers to bring in innovations in design, materials, manufacturing technologies and supply chain management.

Why attend?

TRAM09 will examine the implications of trends mentioned above by focussing on four key areas:

New materials

Manufacturing technologies

Assembly technologies

Supply chain management
