Interior Parts
Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM)
Stükerjürgen Aerospace Composites GmbH & Co. KG has the capability to produce and manufacture
single parts or small series without tooling costs directly from 3 dimensional CAD data by Fused
Deposition Modeling (FDM). FDM parts are well known for the accuracy of the dimensions and
also for their stability and durability.
For the aviation industry, Stükerjürgen is using the approved material Ultem (polyetherimide – PEI)
that offers outstanding elevated thermal resistance, high strength and stiffness with broad chemical
resistance. The materials PC or ABS are also available.
Fused Deposition Modeling can be used for developing prototypes, for reproductions or for specialpurpose
solutions. FDM parts can be finished like conventionally manufactured parts. After finishing,
it is impossible to distinguish between an FDM or a part made with tooling.
Product Development
One field of application of FDM is rapid prototyping.
No expensive tools are needed any more.
Only a 3D Model, which can be used in STL, is
necessary. The prototype suitable for test and
function will be available in a few days and can
be modified easily with inexpensive 3D Model
changes.
Reproduction
Existing parts used in an aircraft that are not
produced any more can be reproduced using
FDM and finished like conventionally manufactured
parts.
Special-Purpose Solutions
Stükerjürgen is prepared to manufacture all
kinds of cabin interior or other parts, even
complex geometries, e.g. cup holders, partitions,
light covers, grip rails, frames, etc.. Every tailormade
part can be produced by FDM with low
