Disassembly, inspection, repair and assembly techniques

Abstract

The aim of this article is to present the current techniques of disassembly, control, repair, and assembly of aircraft components. It reproduces proven but also modern procedures used in aviation practice. The article is divided into several consecutive parts. The first part is a preface which is a kind of introduction to the issues. The following section is an analysis of available sources of information about maintenance of aircraft components. The third part is the content core, in which we describe the basic techniques of aircraft maintenance. Mentioned part containsinformation about the inspection techniques, corrosion treatment procedures, repairs of structural components and typical non-destructive tests. In the last part, we derive the conclusions and emphasize the importance of the described maintenance procedures in the future. We have included several illustrations in the article for better understanding.
