Engine Cold Section

We supply the world’s leading aerospace engine OEMs with the manufacture and repair of highly complex components, such as frames, compressor components, and bypass ducts.

Products


Frames

Magellan manufactures complex aeroengine frames for both the hot and cold engine modules. These products are manufactured from a combination of castings, forgings, and sheet metal, and may be made from titanium, nickel based alloys, or light alloys. They also are assembled fully or in part in our state-of-the-art facilities. Precision tolerance machining ensures that frames are produced to the industry’s most exacting standards. Special processes such as plating, thermal spray, and painting are performed, along with special cleaning processes with particulate filtration, to provide optimal endurance in extreme operating conditions.

Compressor Components

Our compressor discs and cases undergo tight tolerance machining, including precision broaching, specialized processing and non-destructive testing (NDT). Complex processes ensure optimal product integrity through a combination of welding, fabrication, mechanical assembly, and intensive in-process inspection. Machined or cast, bearing housings, and other oil wetted products are subjected to close tolerance machining and special cleaning processes with particulate filtration.

Bypass Ducts

Outer bypass cases for small engine aircraft and turbo fan applications is a core business for Magellan. The units are traditionally aluminum structures with integral noise attenuation features built in. Products are fabricated with machined flanges to support engine mounting. 

  • Details:

  • Aluminum sheet metal fabricated cases
  • Reticulated inner acoustic skins
  • Machined aluminum flanges
  • Metal-to-metal bonding with phosphoric acid anodize and prime
  • C-Scan inspection
  • Chemical processing
  • Ceramic surface application
