Mumbai: SIKA Aerospace & Defence India, the primary brand of the Bengaluru-based Sika Interplant Systems Limited (SIKA), and UK-based Aerotek Aviation Engineering Ltd have launched their joint venture Aerotek Sika Aviation Engineering in the country. The joint venture has been set up as a Make in India initiative to provide manufacturing and maintenance, repair & overhaul (MRO) of landing gear, hydraulic LRUs and actuators for fixed & rotary wing aircraft.
Located within SIKA’s 6.5 acre campus in Bengaluru, the Aerotek Sika facility, which is India’s first dedicated landing gear facility in the private sector, will have capability to handle all types of landing gear manufacturing and MRO for helicopters and aircraft, from trainer aircraft and UAVs up to the size of narrow body aircraft. Aerotek Sika has been established as a mirror site - both in terms of facilities and processes - to the Aerotek UK plant in England, in line with international standards.
Having focused initially on military customers, Aerotek Sika has over the course of the last few months been audited and approved by the Indian Ministry of Defence’s Center for Military Airworthiness & Certification (CEMILAC) for ‘Manufacturing, assembly, testing, MRO of landing gear, hydraulic LRUs and actuators’, as well as by various divisions of Hindustan Aeronautics Limited.
