Why It's Difficult

Aerospace Bracket Challenges

Aerospace brackets must meet strict weight, strength, and accuracy requirements — with process traceability and material certification at every step.

⚖️
Weight with Certification
Aerospace brackets must be as light as possible with full material certification traceability. HXC provides material mill certificates and certificate of conformance with every aerospace order.
⚡
High-Cycle Fatigue
Aerospace structures experience millions of load cycles. HXC specifies minimum fillet radii (R ≥ 3 for cyclic), eliminates sharp stress concentrations, and verifies surface finish (Ra ≤ 0.8 µm) at fatigue-critical zones.
📐
Interface Accuracy
Avionics and flight control brackets have strict interface tolerances — ±0.01 mm for bolt-pattern positions, ≤ 0.005 mm for datum face flatness. All verified by CMM and reported.

FAQ

Aerospace Lightweight Brackets — FAQ

Common questions answered by our manufacturing team.

Ti Grade 5 (Ti-6Al-4V): highest specific strength (880 MPa / 4.43 g/cm³), excellent fatigue resistance, widely qualified in aerospace. Al 7075-T6: most common for non-structural brackets — 503 MPa / 2.81 g/cm³, 65% lighter than titanium. Invar 36: for temperature-sensitive instrument mounts. Material mill certificates with every order.
HXC provides: Material mill certificate (alloy composition, heat number); Certificate of Conformance (CoC); First Article Inspection (FAI) report (full CMM dimensional); Surface finish measurement report. HXC is ISO 9001:2015 certified.
Topology-informed pocket milling removes material from non-load-bearing zones identified by FEA or load-path analysis — creating an organic pocket network that achieves near-optimal stiffness-to-weight. HXC implements topology results from customer FEA, or performs structural review as part of DFM.
Fatigue crack initiation is surface-finish sensitive. At fatigue-critical zones (tight fillets, loaded holes), HXC machines to Ra ≤ 0.8 µm and verifies with a contact profilometer. Shot peening is available as an optional surface treatment to introduce compressive residual stress.
HXC is ISO 9001:2015 certified (not AS9100). For customers requiring AS9100 Rev D documentation standards, HXC can provide equivalent documentation in AS9102 format: material certs, FAI dimensional reports, process records, and CoC. Please specify your documentation requirements at enquiry.
MOQ is 1 piece for prototypes and development builds. Production orders: no minimum. HXC regularly produces single prototype aerospace brackets for development testing, scaling to 500+ production pieces when the design is qualified.
Yes — HXC accepts customer-furnished material (CFM) in bar, plate, or billet form. We inspect CFM on receipt (dimensional verification and material spectral check) and return any remainder with the finished parts. Traceability is maintained throughout.
Ti Grade 5 prototype (including FAI): 8–12 days. Al 7075 prototype: 5–8 days. Production batch: 14–22 days. Rush orders available for development programmes — contact us.
