In cooperation with the German Aerospace Center (DLR), the MAI Carbon cluster of Composites United e. V. (CU) and bavAIRia e. V (the association of Bavarian aerospace companies), Hufschmied Zerspanungssysteme GmbH (Bobingen, Germany) invites industry to Aerospace Day 2025. The in-person event is taking place July 10 from 9:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. in Bobingen, Germany at Hufschmied’s technology center. 

Under the motto “Bringing together what belongs together,” high-profile keynote speakers and other experts from industry and research will highlight the challenges currently facing OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers and how small- and medium-sized companies in particular can optimally leverage their innovative strength and expertise. Exhibitors and practical live demonstrations will illustrate how production technology is responding to industry trends.

Aerospace Day topics covered include material combinations — such as metals and carbon fiber-reinforced polymers (CFRP) — and the interaction between additive and machining processes. Live demonstrations will focus on efficient and stress-free aluminum machining using the example of an aerospace structural component, as well as the delamination-free machining of a CFRP component in a one-shot process that minimizes machining costs. Further demonstrations on 3D printing and machining of high-performance engineering plastics with tools from Hufschmied will focus on the cost-efficient and process-reliable production of drone components.

The following keynote speakers have confirmed their participation in the event:

• Norbert Peer, managing director, Premium Aerotec (Airbus)
• Andreas Ockel, chief operating officer, FACC AG
• Dr.-Ing. Andreas Erber, managing director, Mubea Aviation GmbH. 

Andreas Gundel, managing director of bavAIRia e. V., will open with a keynote speech, and Prof. Dr.-Ing. Michael Kupke, professor of fiber composite rechnology at the University of Augsburg and deputy director of the Institute of Structures and Design at DLR, will moderate a panel discussion.

Aerospace Day comes with an accompanying exhibition. Numerous companies are participating, ranging from machine tools and materials to clamping, measuring and CAM systems. These are partners with whom Hufschmied collaborates in the optimization of manufacturing processes. The following companies will be represented with information stands and some will also be involved in demonstrations: CMS, Grob-Werk, Hexagon, HRC | ACTC, KraussMaffei, Lehmann&Voss, MHT, Mitsubishi Chemical, Open Mind Technologies, Rego Fix, G. A. Röders, Schwäbische Werkzeugmaschinen, SoniCut, VisCheck, Weschu, Carl Zeiss IQS Deutschland, ZeroClamp and Zimmer & Kreim.

In addition, there will be an opportunity for attendees to prove themselves as future pilots in a flight simulator from H3 Grob Aircraft, and to take a close look at a drone from Team HORYZN and a test rocket from WARR Rocketry.
