Abstract
SMALL aluminium alloy parts for the BAe 146 passenger aircraft are now being produced on two new Bridgeport machining centres at the Filton works of British Aerospace near Bristol. The result is said to be an average three‐fold reduction in floor‐to‐floor time compared with previous manual machining; and in some cases production is up to 12 times faster.
