Bullen Ultrasonics Achieves AS9100 Quality Management Certification
February 1, 2017
Bullen Ultrasonics has announced its achievement of certification to the aerospace industry's AS9100 quality management standard. The certification recognizes Bullen's excellence in machining ceramic matrix composite (CMC) components for the aerospace industry.
AS9100 is the single common quality management standard for the aviation, space and defense industries, commonly referred to as the aerospace industry. The standard is based on organizational aerospace manufacturing processes and emphasizes the need to satisfy internal, governmental and regulatory requirements. All major aerospace regulators, including the Federal Aviation Administration, the U.S. Department of Defense and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, endorse it.
Bullen Ultrasonics provides precision machining services for glass, ceramics and advanced materials to high technology industries. With a large concentration of ultrasonic machining equipment, Bullen machines components for aircraft engine parts; fiber optic networking; smart, implantable medical devices; DNA analysis and sequencing; pressure sensors for air bags in automobiles and trucks; environmental monitoring; and computer chips.
CMCs are "super ceramics" that are as strong as metals but are two-thirds lighter in weight and can operate at much higher temperatures than advanced alloys. This combination allows aerospace engineers to design smaller engines with lighter components that generate more power, burn less fuel and do not need as much air for cooling.
