Airbus reaches new heights with Indian supplier

By the end of 2010 every Airbus A320 Family aircraft will be partly made in India. Bangalore based Dynatmatic Technologies, through their partnership with Spirit AeroSystems (Europe) Ltd, will make all wing flap track beams for every variant of Airbus’ best-selling A320 Family aircraft.
The flaps on the wings move along high tech guide rails, known as the flap track beams. These flap track beams are an intricate assembly of tracks which are connected to the wing.
Each A320 Family aircraft wing has three Flap Track Beams and each Flap Track Beam is made from 166 detail parts composed of Titanium, Aluminium and Steel alloys. Dynamatic produces the beams at its newly built, state-of-the-art facility, “Prana”, located in Bangalore, Karnataka Province, Southern India.
This industrial cooperation with Dynamatic Techologies for the A320 Family is part of Airbus’ strategy of fostering partnerships throughout the world, including India. Airbus has been cooperating with India for 35 years.
