OUR ADVANTAGE

Built in the U.S. — Means a Security Clearance That is Green-Lit For Launch.
North American manufacturing and U.S. facilities ensure ITAR/NATO compliance, faster commissioning, and rapid local service—without reliance on offshore parts or technicians
Our press and automation systems are built domestically and proven in active defense production lines. This assurance of U.S. support, zero-risk integration, and demonstrated delivery at scale sets us apart from our competitors who rely on offshore assembly or who don’t reliably deliver on expedited schedules or critical delivery timelines.

Specific Use Cases for Macrodyne Presses & Automation for Aerospace:
Airframe Structural Parts Forming
Aerospace primes and UAV manufacturers require high-strength, lightweight structural parts (i.e. fuselage skins, bulkheads, ribs, and spars) formed to precise tolerances. Conventional methods like hammer forming are too slow and inconsistent for modern ramp-up programs.
Our elastoforming, fluid cell, stretch forming, hydroforming, and deep draw presses deliver uniform force and precision for large aluminum and titanium structures. Macrodyne presses also handle trimming and piercing operations, enabling full structural component production on-spec and at scale.
Superplastic Forming (SPF) of Titanium
Programs like the B-21 bomber and NGAD fighter rely on large, complex titanium components impossible to form conventionally. SPF is essential to reduce part count and weight in stealth aircraft and UAVs.
Macrodyne’s Gas Oscillation Enhanced SPF presses (GO-SPF) cut cycle times by ~50% while expanding geometric capability. With multi-zone gas and temperature control, our presses deliver repeatable, high-quality parts for inlet frames, exhaust panels, and other titanium assemblies, which are already proven in North American aerospace production.
Composite Material Molding
Aerospace platforms depend heavily on composites, from UAV fuselages and wings to engine insulation and missile components. Manufacturers need presses that provide heat, pressure, and repeatability beyond autoclave-only solutions.
Our multi-daylight compression molding presses support RTM, RIM, and thermoplastic stamping, curing multiple parts simultaneously for higher throughput. We’ve delivered systems for jet engine nacelle insulation, UAV airframes, and rocket components, enabling lightweight, heat-resistant structures that meet stringent defense requirements.
Forging of Engine & Landing Gear Parts
Aircraft engines and landing gear require durable forged components — from actuator housings to struts — manufactured with high precision to ensure safety and performance.
Our 1,000–1,500 ton forging presses produce medium-sized aerospace forgings, including landing gear supports, actuator brackets, and engine casings. We also supply straightening presses for long gear beams and shafts, ensuring micrometer-level accuracy after heat treatment.
Missile & UAV Structures Forming
Defense primes and UAV suppliers must manufacture lightweight, high-strength airframes, nose cones, and fins at scale to keep up with rising demand for missiles and unmanned systems.
Macrodyne presses form thin-gauge aluminum and titanium missile structures, UAV wing ribs, spars, and fuselage frames. Our combination of SPF, forging, and composite molding capabilities provides a one-stop partner for advanced UAV and missile production.

Macrodyne + ITP Aero: Implementing GO-SPF for Titanium Components

ITP Aero, a global leader in aero components for commercial and defense, partnered with Macrodyne to implement a GO-SPF press to reduce titanium thinning versus conventional SPF. CAD-based trials showed clear gains, so the team moved ahead to cut non-conformances, boost throughput, and reduce post-processing while holding thickness for tighter tolerances and higher yields. Led by Forming Process Owner Andrew Powdrill, the effort delivers results now and opens the door to lighter, more intricate designs in the future.
