Magellan utilises the latest in advanced sand casting technologies

Magellan Aerospace (Magellan) has signed a six-year agreement with Pratt & Whitney to produce aluminium castings for Next Generation Product Family (NGPF) of engines that power the Airbus A320neo, Airbus A220, Embraer E2 series and Mitsubishi MRJ aircraft.

Under the agreement, the castings will be manufactured at Magellan’s facilities in Haley, Ontario, Canada, and Glendale, Arizona, US.

Through this agreement, Magellan expects to generate around C$81m in revenue through 2023.

Magellan Business Development, Marketing and Contract vice president Haydn Martin said: “This new agreement will provide Pratt & Whitney with enhanced security of supply with Magellan internally dual sourcing these castings between two manufacturing facilities in Canada and the USA, significantly de-risking the supply chain.

“Magellan will utilise the latest in advanced sand casting technologies, specifically 3D sand printing and automated pouring to produce these components.”
