Aerospace Interior & Prototype Manufacturing: ISO 9001 Certified Processes, 15-Day Mold Guarantee.
Critical Challenges in Aerospace Manufacturing
Aerospace parts manufacturing hides costly traps. CNC machining wastes 35% of pricey metals like titanium. 3D printed prototypes often fail certifications, delaying projects for months.
OEMs change designs constantly. Yesterday’s injection-molded cabin part needs new molds today. Rocket engine brackets require urgent redesigns. Most shops can’t handle both.
The worst pain? Using separate factories for metal, plastic, and composite parts manufacturing. Slight size mismatches cause assembly failures. One mistake can mean $2M recalls.

Why First Mold Becomes Your Silent Partner
Safety and Quality
We mitigate aerospace manufacturing risks through real-time CNC process monitoring and blockchain-tracked aerospace-grade materials. Every flight-critical component can meet your requirements without exception.
Shorter Leadtimes
Leverage our in-house rapid prototyping (72-hour 3D printed prototypes) and backup CNC capacity to compress aerospace production cycles by 40%, even during OEM design surges.
DFM Analysis
Our aerospace design optimization combines topology simulation and tolerance stacking analysis. This not only eliminates mold flow defects but also reduces composite part costs by up to 35%.
Improved Outcomes
Decades of aerospace CNC machining and injection molding expertise translate into lightweight components with 30% higher fatigue life, validated by wind tunnel testing and FEA reports.
Finishing Options
From Ra 0.4μm CNC polishing for titanium actuators to UL94-compliant mold textures, we deliver aerospace surface finishes that outperform anodizing/painting requirements.
How to start a aerospace parts making project
1. Send CAD files (STEP/IGES preferred)
2. Get DFM analysis within 24hr
3. Parts making with various processes
4. Receive inspection reports and shipment
Materials For the Aviation Components
First Mold utilizes aerospace-grade metals, polymers, and composites for CNC machining, injection molding, and 3D printing. We manufacture flight-critical components from titanium engine mounts to fireproof cabin systems. Rapid prototypes employ ULTEM milling-grade plastics, guaranteeing prototype specs match production requirements. Material transformations are precision-controlled from raw stock to certified parts.
Every project delivers complete material traceability (mill certs, AMS/SAE compliance) with client-specified sourcing. When you designate suppliers like Solvay for polymers or Toray for alloys, we source exact compounds for avionics/satellite components—substitutions prohibited. Each batch undergoes metallurgical validation and polymer chromatography testing, enforcing zero tolerance for specification deviations.
