Fluid Power & Automation for Aerospace

Florida's aerospace cluster runs from Tier-2 fastener and machining houses across the state to the launch operations on the Space Coast. Most of our aerospace customers operate under AS9100D and trace every part from raw material to finished good. The work we do for them — vision inspection cells, fluid-power for proof-test rigs, custom assembly — is documented to a level of detail that wouldn't fly in commercial industries and is mandatory in this one.

What makes this industry different

The challenges that determine your spec.

Every industry punishes equipment differently. We’ve organized what we’ve learned from years inside aerospace plants into the constraints we account for in every spec we write.

01

100% inspection at line speed

Sampling-only inspection is increasingly flagged by AS9100D auditors. Vision cells let you inspect 100% without slowing the line. We've built and validated five aerospace inspection cells in the last 18 months.

02

Documented traceability

Every part needs a serial number, a process record, and a quality decision. Cells we build write to your existing traceability system rather than create a parallel one.

03

Validated calibration & change control

Cell modifications require change-control approval. We deliver cells with documented configurations and validation packages that hold up under audit.

04

Specialty fluid power for proof-test rigs

High-precision pressure control, instrumented fail-safe response, certified-component traceability. We've built proof-test hydraulic skids for engine and airframe components.
