AIRBUS PARTNERS WITH DYNAMATIC TECHNOLOGIES TO MAKE DOORS FOR A220 AIRCRAFT

In a significant thrust to the ‘Make-in-india’ mission, Airbus has partnered with Dynamatic Technologies to manufacture all doors for the single-aisle A220 family aircraft in

India. The new manufacturing facility will serve the largest order for the aircraft doors to Dynamatic Technologies which is already working with Airbus. The company is already exporting made-in-india products worth USD 750 million and aims to double it in the next year or so, Minister of Civil Aviation Jyotiraditya

M. Scindia informed at the unveiling of Airbus’ significant expansion. “There has been a tremendous investment both in technology transfer as well as human resource development in India by Airbus. Also, I thank Airbus for strengthening the Indofrance

ties,” Scindia said.

With a range of up to 3,600 nautical miles (6,700 kilometers) and seating capacity ranging from 100 to 160 passengers, the A220 is ideally suited for India’s UDAN (Ude Desh ka Aam Nagrik) scheme, aimed at enhancing regional connectivity and promoting economic growth across the nation. Dynamatic Technologies manufacturing facility for all doors for the single-aisle A220 family aircraft will offer an incredible opportunity for the Indian private sector to enter a technology-intensive and highly competitive aviation industry. Additionally, it will elevate domestic manufacturing capabilities leading to reduced import dependence and increased exports at a time when India is witnessing a transformation into a global manufacturing hub supported by progression in the value chain under the Aatmanirbhar Bharat mission. This is the second contract for doors, awarded by Airbus to an Indian supplier. For the first time, an Indian company will do system integration work for an Airbus aircraft.
