Rapid Prototyping
VX provides its clients with rapid prototype development using low temperature direct machined molds. This saves time and money for short run and prototype parts.
All prototype design is geared towards development into full rate production to minimize redesign time between initial prototype, first article, and production. We utilize our large on-site oven to produce out-of-autoclave oven cured composite parts including both resin transfer molding and vacuum-assisted resin transfer molding processes. This allows us to provide our clients with high strength parts with ideal dimensional tolerances and exceptional part quality.
Manufacturing Design
From inception to completion, VX Aerospace executes composite part design and engineers fully integrated aerospace systems. Whether our client is in need of a single part, assembly or airworthy vehicle, we can design, fabricate and assemble it. Our capable team of engineers and manufacturing specialists that efficiently apply their knowledge and skills to troubleshoot and reconfigure design elements to meet customers needs.
Whether our client’s application is in need of exact tolerances, particular physical properties or definite strength requirements, we’re easily able to implement experience to meet quality standards at efficient turnaround times.
