In the modern aerospace industry, the boundaries of what is possible are constantly shifting. New high-performance materials, such as nickel-based superalloys with extreme high-temperature resistance for turbine components or high-strength, thin-walled aluminum alloys for structural components, place the utmost demands on machining technology. Requirements for surface finish, dimensional accuracy, and geometric accuracy routinely fall within the micrometer range. At the same time, the industry faces economic pressure to reduce production times while maximising machine uptime and driving scrap rates toward zero.
