What we do

We are industry leaders in advanced engineering, system testing, and additive manufacturing, trusted by global manufacturers.

“We awarded the monument stress analysis to AFD owing to their extensive experience and knowledge in analysing this kind of structure and their pro-active approach to resolving technical difficulties often encountered in the design phase. The added value of using AFD was their pre-existing relationship with our customer (the DOA) enabling AFD to compile, check and verify the structural substantiation.”

Kevin Hann - Head of Design, JETMS

“AFD gave excellent service in all areas. When they joined the team the means of compliance for the structural airworthiness requirements were being re‐negotiated internationally. AFD quickly rationalised the HEC requirements and proposed a clear strategy for the strength substantiation and compliance demonstration, convincing EASA specialists in the process.”

Leon Winnert - DO Project Manager, AeroDAC

“AFD was able to bring extensive experience in composite design and structural testing to a complex programme. During the test campaign, the AFD CVE/Witness diligently carried out their duty to ensure test article conformity, and to execute the test in accordance with the Test Plan intent. Post‐test, AFD was able to process the results and deliver the required documents without delay, enabling GVH to receive the Supplemental Type Certificate in a timely manner.”
