Moving from the decades-old practice of fabricating aircraft from discrete metal components to building aerostructures, by cutting, forming and curing advanced composite materials, has produced a shift in the manufacturing paradigm for aerospace companies. An aerospace, defense, and commercial products manufacturing company is using RFID to improve process efficiency in the production of composite airframe and engine components for the Airbus A350 XWB, as well as General Electric’s and Rolls-Royce’s engine programs.
