Inside the Design and Manufacturing Processes at Piper Aircraft
Computer-Aided Design (CAD) systems allow engineers, architects, and other design professionals to deliver numerous drawings quickly and accurately during the planning and design phase. And just like in other industries, the use of CAD in the aerospace industry is vital for the successful creation of innovative airplane designs and functionality.
I’m your host, Jennifer Piper, and today I’m joined by Michael O'Shea, the Lead Structural Design Engineer of the Product Development IPT at Piper Aircraft. He will be talking to us about the design and manufacturing processes at Piper Aircraft.
In this episode, he will help us understand his role as a lead structural design engineer and his day-to-day work, which involves a lot of CAD modeling with Siemens' NX. You will learn about the design and manufacturing processes at Piper Aircraft and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the aerospace industry and how Piper Aircraft adapted to new demands, including the move towards electric and autonomous aircraft.
What You’ll Learn in this Episode:
The design process at Piper Aircraft (4:45)
How Siemens' NX helps Piper Aircraft keep up with the increasing product complexities in the industry (9:21)
The challenges in aerospace and defense, and how simulation and visualization tools help in the design process (11:32)
Piper’s Halo safety system (13:51)
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the aerospace industry and how Piper Aircraft adapted to new demands (15:00)
