Beyond the Surface

F. LIST GMBH have gained them­selves a rep­u­ta­tion as a sup­pli­er of mod­ern inte­ri­ors for yachts and air­crafts. Their clear objec­tive is to meet the great chal­lenges faced in the high­ly sen­si­tive air­craft indus­try, as the demands for utmost pre­ci­sion are many times high­er there than in oth­er industries.

Distortion-free vision when flying

The focus is on plastics technology

The name Mecaplex comes up when­ev­er it is about trans­paren­cies. Almost all glid­ers man­u­fac­tured in Europe, but also busi­ness and mil­i­tary jets, are pro­vid­ed with their panes. The Swiss com­pa­ny is spe­cialised in the three-dimen­sion­al form­ing of acrylic glass with­out opti­cal dis­tor­tion and their knowhow is met with world-wide appreciation.

The measure of all things

Smallest details defined and determined

In gen­er­al, in the air­craft indus­try even the small­est devi­a­tion in the pre­ci­sion of com­po­nent machin­ing is unwant­ed. This demand is made on numer­ous com­po­nents of mil­i­tary and civ­il air­craft and machin­ing accu­ra­cy is the most impor­tant cri­te­ri­on for machine manufacturers.

Top quality in series production

Dust and chip-free milling process

At first, “a delib­er­ate invest­ment in future capac­i­ties” sounds dar­ing, above all when it refers to a big CNC-milling unit includ­ing robot sys­tems. For MN Coil, an impor­tant sup­pli­er of the auto­mo­tive and air­craft indus­try, how­ev­er, it con­sti­tutes a well-con­sid­ered step to reach a posi­tion where they can react to changes in the mar­ket at any giv­en time and ensure eco­nom­ic stability.

Highest demands on technology

Resilience versus aerodynamics

In an era dom­i­nat­ed by jet planes, pro­peller air­craft seem some­what nos­tal­gic. Aer­o­bat­ics, such as Mar­tin Albrecht, mem­ber of the nation­al aer­o­bat­ics team, how­ev­er, give impres­sive proof with their flights that there is cer­tain­ly noth­ing nos­tal­gic to their activ­i­ties. The blades are milled from wood­en blocks on our high-qual­i­ty CNC-machines accord­ing to CAD/CAM specifications.
