Turkish Aerospace Industries, Inc. (TAI) is Turkey's centre of technology in design, development, modernization, manufacturing, integration and life cycle support of integrated aerospace systems, from fixed and rotary wing air platforms to UAVs and satellites.

TAI, which ranks among the top hundred global players in aerospace and defence arena, based its business on five strategic pillars: Aerostructures Group; Aircraft Group; Helicopter Group; UAS Group; Space Systems Group.

CAPABILITIES

Design - Turkish Aerospace Industries, Inc. (TAI) is Turkey's centre of technology in design, development, modernization, manufacturing, integration and life cycle support of integrated aerospace systems, from fixed and rotary wing air platforms to UAVs and satellites. All Design Data is digitally gathered and managed by Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) means and methods which enable all related disciplines to work from a common, up to date database. Product Structure and Maturity Levels are the key concepts in this area.

Airworthiness and certification requirements and manufacturing criteria are concurrently considered during the design activities. In addition, compliance of the product is demonstrated by static, dynamic, aero elastic, fatigue and damage tolerance analysis. Selection and qualification of material is done for the developed product and manufacturing processes and testing parameters are defined. Material and Processes Laboratory is established for the purpose of performing required physical, mechanic and chemical tests. Research and development projects are conducted at national and international platforms in order to stay up to date and also to implement latest technologies to TAI. Validation and verification activities are performed in terms of Flight, Laboratory and Ground Tests.

Composite - TAI, aiming to be a leading composite aerospace product design and build partner, is capable of manufacturing a large scale of composite products with conventional techniques and improving its capabilities with advanced composite application technologies. These technologies, including Automated Fibre Placement machine, Precision Milling Machine, Laser Projection Lay-up systems, Real time X-Ray, and Automated Ultrasonic Scanning Systems, offers high quality and precise products for aerospace industry.

Metallic - TAI produces a large variety of finished metallic products for aerospace industry with the principles of innovation and precision. High speed machining of aluminium and titanium, forming and mechanical milling of complex sheet metal panels, Automated Riveting Machine, Automated Drilling system and Flexible Assembly Tooling Applications are major capabilities together with conventional metal forming, machining and assembly processes.

Surface Treatments and Coatings - Having several surface treatments and coating capabilities, TAI is continuously following the developments in the industry and investing on new processes and automated applications to meet aerospace industry requirements. Heat Treatment, Boric sulfuric acid anodizing, Chromic acid anodizing, Phosphoric acid anodizing, Chemical film coating, Pre-penetrant etch cleaning, Passivation, Chemical milling are basic surface treatment capabilities. Coating capabilities include, but are not limited to, Automatic Spraybotic Paint Line and Robotic Coating Application.
