Weight management

While the recording of weight data reflects the current development status of an aircraft project, compliance with target weights for individual components requires in-depth weight controlling and weight management.

Our specialist teams successfully steer and optimize weight management for the current aircraft programs of manufacturers, suppliers and airlines. All weight-related activities are

• surveyed
• planned
• coordinated and followed up, and
• comparative studies are drawn up.

Weight-related design modifications are evaluated, potential for reducing weight is identified and implemented, and weight risks are reduced. By developing and utilizing effective reporting methods and weight tracking tools (e.g. SMART ACT), IndustrieHansa helps its clients to create optimum solutions during weight-critical phases of aircraft design with expert advice and practical implementation.

Our weight managers contribute their broad experience not only to development programs for our client Airbus Germany, such as the A380, A400M, A350 and A30X, but also to projects for automotive manufacturers like Daimler and Volkswagen.
