On November 12, 2024, during the 15th China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition, Airbus held a press conference at the Zhuhai Space Center, where Airbus China senior executives shared updates on Airbus’s latest developments in China and conducted a signing ceremony. BLT’s CEO and General Manager, Dr. Xue, was invited to attend the event.
As early as 2018, BLT achieved Airbus A330 production certification for metal additive manufacturing components, successfully becoming part of Airbus’s qualified supplier network. Through years of technical expertise and hands-on collaboration, BLT has earned Airbus’s recognition for excellence in metal additive manufacturing processes, especially for the serial production of large, complex aircraft components.
In this newly obtained production package, BLT will once again utilize its self-developed PBF-LB/M machine BLT-S400 along with its proprietary high-quality superalloy powders to meet the serial production requirements for this new part number.
Over the years, BLT has demonstrated exceptional batch delivery capabilities, consistently fulfilling its commitments to stable and efficient delivery in Airbus collaboration projects. This reliability has enabled the partnership to expand in both scale and depth, establishing a solid foundation for broader and more enhanced cooperation. The signing of this new part production package signifies a deepening phase in the Airbus-BLT collaboration.
BLT remains committed to its philosophy of “Partnering with excellence to achieve greatness” and will continue to work with Airbus to drive forward the application of metal additive manufacturing in aerospace, contributing positively to innovation in the global aviation industry.
