The group had the honor of receiving the visit of Didier KATZENMAYER, Airbus company, during a visit organized by the Aerospace Cluster Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes.
Back on our history with Airbus ✈ where we are a Strategic Supplier 💪🏻 and which visited us on Thursday May 26th.
In 2011, after 3 years of research and development, The HAM FRANCE Andreas Maier company validated and qualified its specific drills and reamers for the new A350 aircraft . The difficulty then encountered by Airbus was to drill a new material: a very thick multi-material composite stack (Carbon, Aluminum and Titanium). Machining several layers of very heterogeneous and abrasive materials was a real challenge . And we succeeded ☺!
This adventure laid the foundations of our test and R&D center , which is today at the heart of the Global Machining Strategy proposed by PRACARTIS Groupe.

The aeronautics sector has been strongly affected by the health crisis, impacting SMEs like ours, but the recovery is coming and we are ready for the big rebound.
