WEST Session:
Speaker at WEST: Douglas Orantes, Sales Manager, Aero Bending Company
WEST Session: This presentation will explore the technical challenges of manufacturing complex tube geometries, including tight-radius and compound bends, which are critical in today’s aerospace applications. Presenters will demonstrate how in-house capabilities such as welding, machining, fixture design, and chemical processing streamline production and reduce overall lead times. Attendees will gain practical insight into integrating advanced bending technologies with digital data control systems to improve accuracy and repeatability. The session will also highlight how strategic investments such as developing in-house chemical processing enhance supply chain resilience, reduce risk, and improve schedule reliability. Case studies from aerospace programs will show how design collaboration, cost-down initiatives, and dedicated planning drive consistent improvements in product quality, efficiency, and delivery performance.
