Assembly Level 3

Company Profile

Business Profile: Since the early days of aviation, PCC has worked closely with our customers to develop and specify the best products for their applications. We’ve created new materials, designs, and manufacturing practices to satisfy an ever changing industry. PCC engineered product applications include all wing/fuselage structural parts; engine lock‑plates/bracketry; complete passenger/exit doors; major flap support and actuation structures; spars, skins, and bulkheads;

swaged control rods, cables, and actuation and flight control assemblies; and complex latches, quick release BALL‑LOK pins, and specialized fasteners.

Location Profile: Now part of PCC’s Aerostructures Division, University Swaging is a unique machining, swaging, and assembly center providing the industry's most technologically advanced structural and kinematic control rod assemblies, flight control mechanisms, and swaged cable assemblies. Founded in 1947, the company was purchased by Primus in 2000, and before the close of the decade, expanded more than twofold into a new 110,000 square foot facility.

The company's success can be attributed to continuity of leadership and a strong vision for growth of capabilities and products. Today the site benefits from shared opportunities and cooperation with Kali Strut Aerospace, which has also maintained a leading market position in the area of metallic rods for more than 35 years. Recent engineering projects include pylon struts, interior tie rods, hold open rods, flight control rods, wing‑to‑body fairing support rods, door mechanisms and rods, and structural support rods for Airbus, Boeing, Embraer, and Gulfstream.

Precision Castparts Corp. acquired Primus International in August 2011.
