Atlantic Aero Manufacturing has extensive composite manufacturing experience using a variety of processing techniques including hand lay-up, pre-preg, oven curing and compression molding. AAM produces multiple aviation parts for many of our Supplemental Type Certificates (STC’s). Advanced fibers, such as carbon (graphite), Kevlar™ and fiberglass reinforcements, are used. Resin systems include epoxy, phenolic, polyester, urethane and silicone. Nomex and aluminum honeycomb, as well as foam cores, are utilized in structural bonding.

At AAM, we design and build composite tooling in house for prototyping, proof of concept, pre-production models and design & engineering test samples for many industries which include auto racing, aviation and aerospace.

AAM’s 30,000 square foot manufacturing facility was built to accommodate the composite manufacturing process. It is equipped with a 600 square foot climate controlled wet lay-up room, 600 square foot climate controlled pre-preg room, 2 Computer controlled walk-in ovens, 60”W x 132”D x 86”H and 48”W x 48”D x 72”H, a cross flow paint booth, 14’ W x 20’L x 9’H and a 4000 square foot assembly area to meet the challenges of manufacturing high precision parts using advanced performance composites.
