Civil aircraft: air handling systems

The cabin spaces of civil aircraft contain several air-conditioning units with the task to maintain a comfortable environment for the passengers. C.S.O. is one of the most significant suppliers of shafts for the air-conditioning systems of the A320 class aircraft with the unique technology for application of a micro-coat with a thickness of five microns and balancing to values in milligrams. A further big area comprises the turbine heels with very strict dimensional requirements due to the high operating speed of up to 16,000 rpm. We are aware of the fact that a non-functional air-conditioning system in an aircraft may be a true catastrophe for the passengers and the owners of the airline operator particularly in the case of a flight over the sea or ocean. It becomes a critical incident and C.S.O. has strictly defined tools for its elimination, just as applies to water management.

It is just these applications that comprise the most fundamental segment of C.S.O. products and the company dedicates the high involvement of all the company employees from the manufacturing operations, through the quality control staff to the company management.
