Airbus, the global aerospace major, has signed a contract with Dynamatic Technologies to source a key wing component for its A330 family aircraft.

The contract is for sourcing flap-track beams for the wide-body A330 family aircraft. The beams will be assembled at its Bengaluru facility in the first phase and subsequently it will be in charge of the supply chain, including sourcing materials, manufacturing and final assembly.

The Bengaluru-based company, Dynamatic Technologies, has already been making flap-track-beams for Airbus single-aisle A320 family aircraft as a tier-two supplier since 2010, and delivered about 13,000 of them to Airbus till 2014. It designs and builds engineered products for automotive, aeronautic, hydraulic and security applications from its production facilities across the country and in Britain and Germany.

Airbus, in accordance with the government’s ‘Make in India’ initiative, has invested in development, training, tooling and quality systems to set up advanced manufacturing facilities in the country.
