Jeh Aerospace lands Liebherr single-aisle gear contract

The deal puts precision-made parts from Hyderabad into landing gear systems for some of the world’s busiest single-aisle aircraft programmes.

Jeh Aerospace has signed a long-term agreement with Liebherr-Aerospace to manufacture and supply high-precision landing gear components for high-rate commercial single-aisle aircraft programmes.

The work will be carried out at Jeh Aerospace’s dedicated facility in Hyderabad, bringing the company into Liebherr-Aerospace’s global industrial network.

The agreement was formalised during a visit to the site by senior Liebherr-Aerospace executives including Martin Wandel, chief operating officer and managing director, Liebherr-Aerospace & Transportation SAS, Philipp Walter, managing director, Liebherr-Aerospace Lindenberg GmbH, Bernd Schacherl, director procurement, Liebherr-Aerospace Lindenberg GmbH, and Vikas Ukkeranda, senior manager supply chain, Liebherr India Private Ltd., aerospace division.

Wandel says: “We collaborate with partners being capable of fulfilling stringent requirements for precision, quality, and delivery performance. We are pleased to enter into this agreement with Jeh Aerospace and look forward to collaborating with a supplier that has built strong manufacturing capabilities and a clear commitment to operational excellence.”

Landing gear manufacturing remains one of the more exacting areas of aerospace production, requiring tight tolerances, demanding qualification standards and dependable delivery. Jeh Aerospace says it has already supplied more than 200,000 flight-critical aerospace components with zero quality escapes.
