Proven Results that Speak Volumes
Unparalleled Assembly Speed: Vertical Aerospace VX-4
At Vertical Aerospace, the incorporation of Click Bond XR “soft tooling” for adhesive-bonded fastener location and placement drastically redued setup, installation, and validation time for thousands of components, eliminating weeks of labor and time by eliminating manual measurements and creating and placing cumbersome alignment templates.
Technician Advocacy: MRO 2022, 2023
Click Bond participated in the MRO Americas Aviation Maintenance Competition (AMC), presenting a maintenance challenge in which technicians were exclusively guided by digital instructions through a series of tasks related to the installation of adhesive-bonded components. No paper was used in the instruction set. Ninety teams of two participated in the event, all with great success and impressive engagement, providing valuable feedback that enabled Click Bond to better understand technicians’ preferences and “wish lists” for use of future digital work instructions, training aids, and guides.
