This marks Precision’s fifth acquisition since its formation through CIC Partners and Juniper Capital Management, reinforcing its growth strategy in commercial, business jet, and defense markets.

Demand for Lightweight Structures and Fuel Efficiency Drives Aerospace Milling Innovation

A key driver for the global aerospace milled parts market is the increasing need for lightweight structures and more fuel-efficient aircraft. Climate change and related regulations, etc., have put pressure on the aviation industry to reduce weight, fuel consumption, and carbon emissions. Aircraft can become lighter, thereby increasing their fuel efficiency, through weight reduction and the use of advanced technology. Aerospace milled parts contribute to both non-structural and structural components significantly reducing the aircraft's weight significantly while maintaining strength and performance. The overall growth of the aerospace milled parts market is propelled in part by increased fuel-efficient aircraft that many manufacturers will expose to advanced material options and milling technology as priority applications to rethink how the weight of specific components will impact the overall performance of their products and contribute to fuel efficiency.

For instance, in July 2024, Fort Walton Machining, Inc., a precision manufacturing company based in Florida, showcased its Makino MAG3.EX 5-axis horizontal machining center, the first of its kind in the state. This advanced aerospace milling machine will improve productivity for complex aluminum parts with existing clients like Blue Origin while enabling the growth of more commercial work and defense contracts.

Structural Airframe Parts Emerges as Key Growth Engine for Aerospace Milled Parts

Structural airframe parts are the most significant driver for the aerospace milled parts market expansion. These parts, which include fuselage frames, wing spars, and bulkheads, are lightweight components that must be produced to specific tolerances and performance characteristics through precision milling. All these parts are currently being manufactured to comply with changes in materials and improved machining technologies that support efficient production as well as fuel efficiency and structural integrity. With the future of all aircraft programs requiring more complex load-bearing structures, the growing need and strategic importance of milled airframe components are apparent.

For instance, in May 2024, Precision Aerospace Holdings, LLC, an aerospace and defense producer in Dallas, received investment support from CIC Partners and Juniper Capital Management. Precision expanded its production abilities for precise manufacturing by acquiring the Owens Machine and Tool Company in Lewisville, Texas. Owens operates CNC machining equipment that produces titanium and nickel alloy components, which Precision uses to enhance its high-precision manufacturing capabilities.

North America Dominates the Aerospace Milled Parts Market

Global aerospace milled parts market experiences has highest share in North America due to its developed aviation infrastructure and cutting-edge manufacturing plants, along with its robust defense industry. The area boasts many skilled workers, while its research capabilities support both commercial aviation and military operations. The industry grows due to fleet upgrades, along with increasing aircraft production, as well as the use of lightweight materials to conserve fuel. The industry receives a boost from strategic investments in automation, as well as digital machining and sustainability practices. North America maintains its position as a central hub for precision-milled aerospace components by fostering cooperative relationships between OEMs and tiered suppliers, which drive innovation and operational resilience.

For instance, in February 2025, Bharat Forge Limited and Liebherr-Aerospace & Transportation SAS announced a strategic partnership to establish an advanced aerospace manufacturing facility in Pune, India, unveiled during Aero India 2025. The facility will feature a ring mill and precision machining technologies to produce high-accuracy components, including landing gear parts, supporting global aerospace demand.
