One of the main objectives of the Airframe Control Bearing Group (ACBG) is to share a wealth of knowledge and subject matter from professionals in the bearing industry, leading to enhanced aerospace bearing standards globally. Additionally, it enables suppliers and manufacturers to offer crucial industry expertise along with cutting-edge technology, both of which eventually help to provide the best bearing solutions.
"The ACBG meetings generate published standards known as SAE Aerospace Standards and these are crucial," says Erick Sloan, Chief Operating Officer of Carter Americas, the USA sister company of CARTER MANUFACTURING LTD. “They provide the most pertinent specifications, standards, and requirements for the hardware utilised in the design and construction of aerospace mechanical systems and subsystems, including bearings for the airframe, control system components, and related hardware”, he stated.
One of the reasons Carter Manufacturing has emerged as a key global provider of precision bearings and bearing tooling equipment for all aerospace industry applications is its easy access to this essential knowledge and information.
