Turbo-jets and turbo-propellers

CPC v2.1 Code: 43132

About turbo-jets and turbo-propellers

cpc code 43132 covers the production of turbo-jets and turbo-propellers, which are essential components in the aviation industry. These specialized engines provide the thrust required for both commercial and military aircraft, enabling them to take flight and maintain airborne operations. As a critical part of the broader transportation sector, the turbo-jet and turbo-propeller industry plays a vital role in facilitating global trade, travel, and national defense capabilities.

Production process

The production of turbo-jets and turbo-propellers involves a complex manufacturing process that combines advanced engineering, precision machining, and rigorous quality control. Key steps include the fabrication of turbine blades, compressor sections, and combustion chambers using specialized alloys and composites. These components are then meticulously assembled, balanced, and tested to ensure optimal performance and safety standards.

Production inputs

The turbo-jet and turbo-propeller industry relies on a range of high-quality raw materials, including titanium, nickel-based superalloys, and advanced composite materials. Specialized machinery, such as CNC machines, forging presses, and precision measurement tools, are also essential for the manufacturing process. Additionally, the industry requires a highly skilled workforce of engineers, technicians, and production personnel to design, build, and maintain these complex aviation engines.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the turbo-jet and turbo-propeller industry are the engines themselves, which are then incorporated into a wide range of aircraft, including commercial airliners, military fighter jets, and turboprop-powered regional aircraft. These engines are classified under 43131 Turbo-jets and 43133 Turbo-propellers, which are closely related to the 43132 code. The turbo-jet and turbo-propeller industry also produces spare parts, maintenance services, and upgrades to support the ongoing operation and upkeep of these critical aviation components.
