The door products will be manufactured through considerable investment, using state-of-the-art, high-tech machines, including a new riveting center to drill and rivet the outer skins to the door structures and a high-precision drilling machine to install the door hinge to the fuselage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marco Antonio Del Prete Tercero, Secretary of Sustainable Development of the State of Quer\u00e9taro, on behalf of Mauricio Kuri Gonz\u00e1lez, Governor of the State of Quer\u00e9taro, and Laurent Mazou\u00e9, Executive Vice President of Operations of Airbus Helicopters, signed the cooperation agreement during the Farnborough International Airshow in the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2024\/07\/airbus-delivered-323-aircraft-in-first-half.html\">Airbus delivered 323 aircraft in first half<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI am really pleased that Airbus, a leading company in the aerospace sector, continues to trust in Quer\u00e9taro. Its presence in the state has borne great fruit and has driven innovation and technological development in the industry, a condition that has also allowed our state, located in the center of Mexico, to be known worldwide,\u201d said Marco Antonio Del Prete Tercero, Secretary of Sustainable Development of the State of Quer\u00e9taro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAn important milestone is taking place today, both for the State of Quer\u00e9taro and for Airbus Helicopters, with the expansion of our industrial plant, as part of the transformation of our global supply chain, but also to cope with the increase in Airbus single-aisle commercial aircraft,\u201d said Laurent Mazou\u00e9, Executive Vice President of Operations at Airbus Helicopters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Airbus manufacturing plant in the State of Quer\u00e9taro currently produces hatches and emergency exit doors, bulk cargo doors and cargo doors for single-aisle and wide-body aircraft, respectively, as well as subassemblies and modules for helicopters, which are then delivered to Airbus final assembly lines and Airbus plants in Europe. The facility, inaugurated in 2013 and located in the Aerotech Industrial Park, employs more than 400 people and produces about 4,000 doors per year from raw material to final assembly, and about 180,000 loose parts, kinematics and subassemblies supplied annually to Germany and 15,000 parts to France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Airbus has been present in Mexico for more than 40 years and has a long-term commitment to the development of the aeronautical and aerospace industry in the country, with a base of more than 650 direct employees in its three divisions and generating more than 15,000 indirect jobs, as well as more than $200 million dollars annually in supply chain purchases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"related-topics\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div
