Our Capabilities
Advanced Materials Technology is a full-service, FAA-certified aerospace repair station. We offer APU component repair, precision machining, specialty coatings, and advanced manufacturing processes all under one roof.
APU Repair Services
From Start to Finish
From hot-section turbine component repairs to complex machining processes, we offer a wide range of services to restore critical aerospace components to FAA standards. As a vertically integrated operation, we control every stage of the repair process from start to finish. Avoiding outsourced processes reduces our turnaround times, extends component life, and lowers replacement costs.
We can repair parts from all the leading manufacturers, including Solar Centaur and Solar Saturn power turbines and the following Honeywell and Pratt & Whitney APU series:
- GTCP 131-9
- GTCP331-200/-250
- GTCP331-350
- GTCP331-500
- PW901
We also develop innovative repair solutions for complex and out-of-production APU components, restoring them to full functionality. And all of our repair services are backed up by strict testing and quality control.
FAA-Approved Repair. Precision Machining. Specialty Processes.
01
Repair & Precision Machining
Casting Replacement
Our proprietary casting replacement process restores severely worn APU components that might otherwise be scrapped. By brazing reusable sections onto new castings, we help you save on replacement costs by keeping recoverable parts out of your scrap pile.
CNC Milling and Turning
Our advanced 5-axis CNC machining equipment delivers exceptional accuracy and repeatability for complex aerospace components. With precision milling, CNC lathes, and Vertical Turning Lathes, we can perform repairs that meet the demanding tolerances of aerospace standards.
Electrical Discharge Machining
Our electrical discharge machining (EDM) capabilities, including 5-axis EDM hole drilling, wire EDM, and sinker EDM, allow us to machine intricate geometries and hardened materials with exceptional precision. These advanced machining processes minimize material stress and are capable of creating shapes and features that conventional machining cannot achieve.
Electron Beam Welding
Electron Beam (EB) welding produces deep, high-strength welds with minimal heat distortion, making it ideal for repairing critical turbine and APU components while preserving base material properties and structural integrity.
02
Specialty Processes & Coatings
Vacuum Furnace Brazing
Our controlled vacuum furnace brazing process creates strong, contamination-free joints that restore structural integrity and reliability and ensure long-term reliability for critical aerospace components.
Honeycomb Brazing
We repair damaged honeycomb configurations using specialized brazing techniques that restore strength while maintaining the lightweight characteristics essential for aerospace performance.
Heat Treatment
We use specialized heat treatment processes that restore the required mechanical properties, strength, and durability of repaired components in accordance with FAA repair specifications.
Platinum Aluminide Coating
Our in-house platinum aluminide coating process enhances the durability and performance of critical aerospace components by providing superior resistance to oxidation, hot corrosion, and extreme temperatures. This advanced coating extends component service life, improves thermal efficiency, and helps meet OEM specifications while reducing maintenance costs and downtime.
Thermal Spray Coating
Thermal spray coatings restore worn surfaces, recover dimensional tolerances, and enhance resistance to wear, corrosion, and high-temperature environments, improving both component performance and lifespan.
03
Quality Assurance & Inspection
Quality Assurance
Quality control is built into every stage of our repair process. Our quality management system operates in compliance with ISO 9001:2015 and AS9100 standards. And because it’s supported by advanced metrology equipment and rigorous inspection procedures, we can ensure repeatable, aerospace-grade precision.
Non-Destructive Testing
We perform comprehensive non-destructive testing (NDT) to detect cracks, flaws, and other defects without damaging the components or compromising their integrity.
Fluorescent Penetrant Inspection
With Fluorescent Penetrant Inspection (FPI), we can detect even the smallest surface defects and verify structural integrity before approving parts for return to service.
Coordinate Measuring Machine Inspection
Our facility houses multiple Hexagon coordinate measuring machines (CMMs). We have production-floor inspection capabilities as well as portable CMM technology for precise dimensional and tolerancing measurements.
Hand Finishing
Our expert technicians carefully hand-finish repaired components to meet exact dimensional requirements, surface finish specifications, and aerospace quality standards.
Final Part Marking
This crucial step ensures full traceability, regulatory compliance, and seamless integration into your maintenance records.
