The Voronezh company "Reverse Engineering" has established additive manufacturing of interior parts for wide-body passenger aircraft Airbus A330, using 3D printing to produce armrests, tables, and decorative strips, which were previously manufactured by traditional machining and supplied through official aviation channels that became unavailable to Russia due to sanctions.
Production is organized using SLM (Selective Laser Melting) technology from PC330 aluminum alloy. After printing, the parts undergo minimal mechanical processing and are prepared for painting and protective coatings.
The company positions the process as small-batch repair production, focused on replacing and restoring interior elements.
Enterprise representatives note that the transition to additive technologies allows for reduced manufacturing times, elimination of expensive tooling, and reduced material consumption, while maintaining the accuracy and strength characteristics of the products. It is also claimed that the operational properties of the parts comply with aviation interior requirements.
