Advanced Manufacturing and Assembly Technologies for Aerospace Production Systems

This Reprint, "Advanced Manufacturing and Assembly Technology for Aerospace Production Systems", is hosted by Machines' "Advanced Manufacturing" section (ISSN 2075-1702), and co-edited by Dr. Feiyan GUO (USTB) and Dr. Zhengping CHANG (NWPU). It focuses on breakthroughs and trends in aerospace manufacturing, serving as a global platform for academic exchange and advancement. The field of aerospace manufacturing, integrating multiple disciplines, determines product performance, R&D, and reliability, leading the equipment manufacturing industry. This Special Issue collects high-value original research, covering composite manufacturing, digital intelligent manufacturing, assembly accuracy control, etc.It collects a total of nine papers, including an integrated framework solving aircraft rivet interference fit (max relative deviation 9.75%); a compensation algorithm reducing 15m CFRP component curing deformation to ¿0.99mm; and a rigid-flexible coupling analysis addressing weak-rigid component assembly errors. Other achievements include 6D chain modeling (aero-engine casing error
