Airbus plans to use Airware 2050 plate and
forging stock for its dual-aisle A350 XWB aircraft.
In the framework of the contract, AIRWARE(TM) 2050 plate and
forging stock will be used in the manufacturing of critical parts of the internal wing structure contributing to reach significant weight savings and reducing the corrosion impact on aircraft parts.
Project plans call for the production of 240,000 million tons per year of billet and
forging stock and also includes possible downstream facilities.
