The two European aviation specialists will work closely at their Hungarian locations to perform specific repairs on structural components
Representatives of Diehl Aviation and Skyways Technics HU Kft
recently signed an agreement at Diehl Aviation Hungary in Nyírbátor: The two companies will cooperate in the maintenance of aircraft structural components
in which Diehl Aviation's autoclaves play a central role

These radomes are sensitive components that are subject to particular stresses from environmental influences such as hail or bird strikes
Although such damage typically does not affect the operability of the aircraft
made of nearly 30 layers of laminated prepreg material in a honeycomb structure
Diehl Aviation will provide Skyways Technics with access to its two autoclaves in Nyírbátor and support with the necessary know-how
All steps in the entire repair process can be carried out practically on site between the Hungarian locations of Debrecen and Nyírbátor

Diehl Aviation founded its subsidiary Diehl Aviation Hungary Kft
The company looks back on ten successful years in a ceremony to which representatives of the Hungarian government
and representatives of the Diehl Group’s top management are invited
Diehl sees its subsidiary in Hungary as an essential part of the further development of Diehl Aviation
Diehl reviews the efforts of the Hungarian employees to date and the impressive growth on-site in Nyírbátor with pride
the capacity was expanded with a second hall just three years later
The establishment of another site in Debrecen followed in 2017 and the construction of a logistics hall in 2018
the company successfully finished the construction of a third production hall which will be placed into operation in June 2022
Diehl Aviation has further expanded the activities of its Hungarian subsidiary
around 150 employees in Debrecen complement the company's production activities with development work and administrative activities
Diehl was able to rely on a good and open relationship with the municipality of Nyírbátor
and the Hungarian Investment Promotion Agency (HIPA)
the number of employees has also grown to roughly 900 at the two sites in Nyírbátor and Debrecen
Nyírbátor is now Diehl Aviation's second-largest site in terms of personnel
and onboard lavatories for single-aisle aircraft at its Nyírbátor site

Diehl considers itself well positioned for the coming ramp-up of single-aisle production
Since 2020 Diehl Aviation has also been using autoclaves at its Nyírbátor site and at its German headquarters in Laupheim to produce complex lightweight components for the cabin lining and air-conditioning ducts in the aircraft cabin
This is how the lightweight specialist saves weight on its components and also increases their strength
