The aerospace industry has gone through a large amount of uncertainty over the past few years. The global aerospace parts manufacturing market size was estimated at USD 907.2 billion in 2019 and is expected to expand at a CAGR of 4.1 percent from 2020 to 2027. Rising demand for lightweight, new-generation, and fuel-efficient aircraft, owing to the emphasis on reducing greenhouse emissions, is predicted to boost the growth.
Established in 2001, Wave Mechanics, based in Bengaluru, is a precision parts manufacturing company that offers end-to-end services for complex, high precision mechanical requirements from importing raw material and process documentation to post-machining unique processes and assembly. The company supplies fully finished precision parts or mechanical kits ready for integration.
"Wave is led by two of the youngest entrepreneurs in the aerospace industry. We left comfortable jobs in the United States & returned to India with a mission to put Wave & thereby India, on the map as a truly world class destination for aerospace manufacturing. We have brought innovative solutions to traditional problems & hope to continue on the path of sustainable growth", stated Mayank Dalmia, Director, Wave Mechanics.
