Revolutionizing Aerospace Maintenance: PPG's 3D Printed Sealant Technology
For over 70 years, PPG has established itself as a leader in innovation within the aerospace sector, providing cutting-edge solutions that enhance safety, efficiency and performance. From sealants to advanced transparencies and coatings, PPG has consistently pushed the boundaries of technology. The latest breakthrough from PPG’s aerospace business is the introduction of its proprietary 3D printed sealant technology, a game-changer that promises to redefine the standards of aircraft manufacturing and maintenance.
The Evolution of Sealant Applications
Historically, the application of sealants in the aerospace industry has relied on two-part systems that require mixing and manual application. Renowned PPG product names such as PRO-SEAL™ and PRC-DESOTO® brand sealants have been staples in the maintenance world, but the traditional methods often come with challenges. Hand application is heavily dependent on the skill level of the technician, which can sometimes result in a messy and imprecise application.
