Automation in Aviation
Aviation
POA delivers precision automation and control systems to improve productivity in aviation manufacturing and component production.
Precision meets production
Aviation manufacturing operations faces record order backlogs while maintaining zero-defect quality standards. Every component must meet exact specifications while every process requires complete traceability.
+ Record backlogs demand faster production rates
+ Zero-defect requirements leave no margin for error
+ Repetitive tasks cause worker injuries and fatigue
+ Manual processes limit throughput and consistency
One reliable partner
Our systems increase production speed while maintaining the precision and quality aviation manufacturing demands. Our solutions reduce worker injuries and provide complete process documentation.
Precision Process Automation
+
We automate repetitive drilling, fastening, riveting, and sealing operations with position feedback and quality verification—delivering consistent accuracy that meets aerospace tolerances while reducing cycle times.
Quality & Traceability Systems
+
Automated inspection integration, dimensional verification, torque monitoring, and batch documentation provide complete traceability from raw materials through finished components.
Flexible Manufacturing Controls
+
We design control systems that accommodate product variations, support rapid changeovers, and enable parallel processing—giving you the manufacturing flexibility needed to respond quickly to design changes and new opportunities.

"In February 2015, the McKesson drug distribution facility in Memphis, Tennessee experienced a roof collapse due to an ice storm. The damage...(threatened) the CDC's entire US supply of vaccines for children. With Steve and Lonnie leading, the entire POA team provided 24/7 support to McKesson. With POA's collaboration, McKesson was able to stabilize the situation, install a new controller, and get it operational. In this situation, partnering with the right company saved McKesson from a potential $876,000,000 loss."
