The European Union’s Clean Sky 2 aeronautics research programme has selected GKN Aerospace as a core partner for two projects.
The aerospace firm will participate in a Safran, Rolls-Royce and MTU-led engines project, and an Airbus-led large passenger aircraft (LPA) project.
These teams will produce complex structural parts and rotating parts for aero-engine integrated technology demonstrators (ITD).
Work will be performed at GKN’s aero-engine engineering centres in Sweden and Norway.
The company will use various processes and technologies, automation techniques and additive manufacturing technologies to create the parts with reduced weight of up to 30%.
