Workpiece carriers & cleaning baskets for the aerospace industry

Reliable component handling for maximum precision and safety

The aerospace industry places extreme demands on production, maintenance and logistics: technical cleanliness, dimensional accuracy, traceability and surface protection are crucial for the quality of safety-relevant components.

Whether engine components, structural components, hydraulic elements, sensors or space modules - with workpiece carriers, load carriers and modular cleaning baskets from ZELL, manufacturers and MRO service providers secure their components throughout all processes: from machining and cleaning to assembly and logistics.

Typical areas of application in aviation & aerospace

Cleaning components before and after processing or testing

Surface processing incl. vibratory grinding, deburring or coating

Maintenance & repair (MRO) - safe storage and temporary storage of assemblies

Space technology - handling sensitive, complex structures with strict cleanliness and material requirements

Transportation & logistics between production sites, partners or test facilities

Your benefits with ZELL carrier systems for aerospace applications

🛡️ Component protection without compromise

Aerospace parts often have complex geometries, defined sealing surfaces and sensitive coatings. ZELL's precisely fitting workpiece carriers provide reliable protection against friction, deformation and particle abrasion - even during prolonged transportation or multiple process runs.

🧼 Cleanable & resistant to media

Our modular cleaning baskets are suitable for use in aqueous and solvent-based systems and enable a complete flow for critical component cleaning - even with tight tolerances and difficult geometries.

🔁 Reusable & stackable

ZELL goods carriers and load carriers are robust, reusable, stackable and compatible with aviation logistics systems (e.g. special containers, ESD environments, clean room requirements).

🤖 Automation & traceability

Our carrier systems can be integrated into automated production, testing or packaging lines and, if required, can be equipped with laser engraving, DMC or RFID for seamless component tracking - in compliance with the high documentation requirements of the industry.
