Magellan Aerospace, the Canadian group, which supplies products and services to major corporations from Airbus to Bombardier, is to invest 6 million in Northern Ireland and create 47 jobs at its Greyabbey operation.

The Ontario headquartered group which engineers and manufactures aeroengine and aerostructure components for aerospace markets, has had a presence in the North since it acquired John Huddleston Engineering in 2012.

Magellan, which currently employs 109 people, lists major aerospace groups from Boeing to GKN and Spirit AeroSystems among its key customers.

It intends to construct a new specialised assembly facility and invest in additional advanced machining technology at its Greyabbey plant.

It will receive 700,000 in support from Invest NI towards the cost of the investment project.

Haydn Martin, Magellans vice president business development Europe, said the acquisition of John Huddleston Engineering had strengthened its core manufacturing capabilities and expanded its European operations.

This investment takes the Greyabbey plant to the next level and will enable us to support growth in our key customer programmes, Mr Martin added.

The Norths Enterprise Minister Arlene Foster believes the latest investment by Magellan will also enhance the local aerospace sector.

It will strengthen Magellan Aerospace (Greyabbey) as a supplier of machining, assembly, supply chain management and logistics to the global aerospace industry.

PUTRAJAYA: Aerospace Malaysia Innovation Centre (AMIC) aims to play a major role in countrys aerospace research and technology (R&T) activities with the establishment of its physical centre within Asia Aerospace City (AAC) in Subang by 2016.

AMIC chief executive officer, Shamsul Kamar Abu Samah, said with the establishment of AAC, Malaysia is getting closer to realising its vision of becoming a major player in the global aerospace market.

With the research facility in place, it would further enhance AMICs initiative in marshalling value-added research activities and developing technologies that could be readily adopted by the industry, he said.

In AAC, we will be looking into the various activities for advanced testing on aerospace products, including the development and production of virtual reality system as well as robotic system to support the aerostructure manufacturing activities, he told Bernama.

Shamsul said AMIC planned to place up to 20 technical personnel within the facility from various organisations, both from its local and international research partners.

He said the RM4 million Virtual Reality project, which would be ready by next three years, was set up in collaboration with Airbus Group, AMIC, M-Aerotech, Universiti Malaya, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, Universiti Kuala Lumpur Malaysian Institute of Aviation Technology and Kolej Kemahiran Tinggi MARA, Melaka.

Shamsul said the project was expected to serve the industrys needs for advanced training system such as CTRM Aero Composites and Spirit AeroSystems Malaysia.

In the next two years we want to see results for the system integration and in the last one year the adoption of the system in the aerospace manufacturing training modules and validation, he said.

He said in order to move forward in this lucrative industry, AMIC, as an industry-driven aerospace research centre, aimed to enrich the research and development activities based on future needs in global industry.

This would also become one of the main highlights in the new National Aerospace Blueprint 2015-2030 currently being formulated by Malaysian Industry-Government Group For High Technology (MIGHT), he said.
