New Delhi: European aircraft manufacturer Airbus on Monday signed an agreement with India’s Dynamatic Technologies, making the Bangalore-based company the single source supplier of flap-track beams for the wide-body A330 Family planes.
Airbus had last year in May selected the Indian firm as the sole supplier of flap-track beams. The agreement is the largest manufacturing contract between Airbus and a private sector company in India and elevates Dynamatic to a global tier-1 supplier, the European firm said.
Dynamatic has manufactured flap-track beam assemblies for Airbus’ single-aisle A320 family on a global single source basis as a Tier-2 supplier, since 2010. In phase one of the agreement, Dynamatic will assemble all the flap-track beams from its Bangalore facility. In the second phase, Dynamatic will be responsible for the entire supply chain for the flap-track including sourcing materials, manufacturing and final assembly.
With this new business award Dynamatic will be established as a centre of excellence for the production of flap-track beams, the company said in a statement.
“Dynamatic is proud of its partnership with Airbus, who have invested considerably in development, training, tooling and quality systems and worked closely with us to establish advanced manufacturing capabilities in India, which is truly in consonance with the Make in India programme,” Udayant Malhoutra, CEO and managing director, Dynamatic Technologies Limited, said.
