Bharat Forge Opens Advanced Landing Gear Machining Facility in Pune

Bharat Forge, jointly with Liebherr-Aerospace & Transportation SAS, has established a state-of-the-art Landing Gear Components Machining Plant in Mundhwa, Pune.

This plant will make Bharat Forge one of the first companies in India and one of the pioneers in scale to have OEM-approved landing gear components machining infrastructure.

The new plant combines hi-tech machining facilities that are set up with high-precision landing gear parts and this is a great step in enhancing the aerospace manufacturing ecosystem in India.

This initiative is likely to be of vital importance in boosting the presence of the country in the world supply chains of aerospace and providing the much-needed support to the civil and military aviation industries.
