    DUKAS_18464255_EYE
    CHINA-NANCHANG-HONGDU-AVIATION (CN)
    (110505) -- NANCHANG, May 5, 2011 (Xinhua) -- The aluminum-lithium alloy fore part of the airframe of C919 jumbo jet is seen in Hongdu Aviation Industry Group in Nanchang, capital of east China's Jiangxi province, April 26, 2011.
    On Aug. 1, 1927, Communist-led armed forces held an uprising in Nanchang City, which marks the birth of the armed forces of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and has been recorded as a great event in China's revolutionary history.
    Nanchang, one of the "red cradles" of CPC, is also an industrial base in east China and has made contribution to China's development and modernization, especially the aviation industry.
    Hongdu Aviation Industry Group, a division of the China Aviation Industry Corp (AVIC), is a main base for research and manufacturing of trainers, UAV, general airplanes and missiles, and also a main base for export of aviation products. Founded in 1951, Hongdu made the first plane of People's Republic of China in July 1954. Up to now, Hongdu has developed and manufactured over 5,000 aircrafts, more than 500 of which were exported.
    K8 trainer and L15 trainer, developed and manufactured by Hongdu, are among the outstanding trainer planes in China's aviation. K8 trainer is designed in compliance with the international criteria and developed in a form of international cooperation, is primarily used for pilot's basic training and advanced training. L15, a new generation two-engine supersonic advanced trainer with typical characteristics of third generation fighters, can be used for advanced training and strategic pilot drills.
    Hondu also undertakes the construction of the fore part of the airframe of C919 jumbo jet, China's self-developed jumbo jet. C919, is scheduled to take off in 2014 after being rolled off the assemble line between the end of 2013 and the first half of 2014.

  • Britain’s Tesla hopes for big things from ‘microfactories’
    DUKAS_137759947_EYE
    Britain’s Tesla hopes for big things from ‘microfactories’
    Electric vehicle maker Arrival is gambling that small sites, a ‘Lego-block’ manufacturing system and lots of robots will bring it success.

    he last year has been tricky for electric vehicle startups. After a burst of investment mania in which companies raised billions on the mere promise of battery propulsion, valuations have come back down to earth.

    One of the loudest thuds has come from Arrival, the closest to what could be called a British electric vehicle champion.

    The company is trying to move fast - launching a van, a bus and a car at the same time - and break the traditional industry model, using robot-controlled microfactories that it hopes will bounce manufacturers from the Henry Ford age to the iPhone era.

    Arrival, a company that is beginning to produce electric vehicles, including buses, vans and cars. Oxfordshire.

  • Britain’s Tesla hopes for big things from ‘microfactories’
    DUKAS_137759938_EYE
    Britain’s Tesla hopes for big things from ‘microfactories’
    Electric vehicle maker Arrival is gambling that small sites, a ‘Lego-block’ manufacturing system and lots of robots will bring it success.

    he last year has been tricky for electric vehicle startups. After a burst of investment mania in which companies raised billions on the mere promise of battery propulsion, valuations have come back down to earth.

    One of the loudest thuds has come from Arrival, the closest to what could be called a British electric vehicle champion.

    The company is trying to move fast - launching a van, a bus and a car at the same time - and break the traditional industry model, using robot-controlled microfactories that it hopes will bounce manufacturers from the Henry Ford age to the iPhone era.

    Arrival, a company that is beginning to produce electric vehicles, including buses, vans and cars. Oxfordshire.

  • Carmaking recast: West Midlands finds new role in electric vehicle industry
Some firms reinvent themselves in the battery era, but others struggle as work moves abroad

    Carmaking recast: West Midlands finds new role in electric vehicle industry
    Some firms reinvent themselves in the battery era, but others struggle as work moves abroad. Brandauer, based in Birmingham’s Newtown, is closing in on its 160th birthday. Yet bosses at the precision metal stamping company, which employs 60 people, realised about five years ago that they needed to start targeting the next generation of cars, or faced losing a large chunk of their business. It has now branched out into metal lamination, producing plates that are being used in hydrogen fuel cells, a technology that could fuel zero-emission lorries. The new customers have helped it to its best year of new business on record.
    Pictured is the site and staff of Brandauer Precision Stamping in Birmingham.
    Pictured are examples of precision templates made on site.

    Carmaking recast: West Midlands finds new role in electric vehicle industry
    Some firms reinvent themselves in the battery era, but others struggle as work moves abroad. Brandauer, based in Birmingham’s Newtown, is closing in on its 160th birthday. Yet bosses at the precision metal stamping company, which employs 60 people, realised about five years ago that they needed to start targeting the next generation of cars, or faced losing a large chunk of their business. It has now branched out into metal lamination, producing plates that are being used in hydrogen fuel cells, a technology that could fuel zero-emission lorries. The new customers have helped it to its best year of new business on record.
