Collins Aerospace expands executive aircraft seating operations in Medley, Florida
Doubled production floor space and new machinery improves capacity and customization opportunities
Collins Aerospace is expanding its executive aircraft seating facility in Medley, Florida. The $2 million investment doubles the facility's upholstery production floor space to 30,000 square feet and adds state-of-the-art machining equipment that improves production efficiencies, enhances capabilities and reduces material waste.
A leader in seating upholstery for executive, business and VIP aircraft, Collins' 150,000 square-foot Medley facility uses a mix of high-tech automated machining and specialized craftsmen to produce highly customized aircraft furnishing solutions to meet the needs of its global customer base. The additional floor space and advanced machinery not only enhance the site's production capacity but also expand its range of bespoke luxury upholstery solutions.
"This investment unlocks new dimensions to our executive seating site, augmenting our world-class capabilities and improving product quality, repeatability and lead times," said Scott Howard, director of business development for Executive Aircraft Seating for Collins Aerospace. "It's also a direct reflection of our dedication to innovation and commitment to continually improving our environmental impact by reducing material waste."
The new automated quilted panel machinery can execute complex designs, patterns and colouring for custom sewing, embroidery and perforation, while an automated material cutter uses advanced digital visioning for precision cutting to maximize material usage, expediting processes and efficiencies.
Examples of Collins' bespoke upholstery solutions are on display at Collins Aerospace booth #2041 at the annual NBAA-BACE show in Las Vegas, Nevada.
