The Russian technology office of Airbus has developed a new software to assist in visualizing the manufacturing process during aircraft assembly. This software, known as assembly simulation of reliable processes (ASRP5), was installed in the Airbus manufacturing chain in 2015. The software allows stress experts and assembly line engineers to analyze and visualize the assembly process, optimizing the use of fasteners to avoid stress. This will enhance the production rates of single-aisle and wide-body aircraft by decreasing the time needed for complex joining processes during aircraft assembly.
