AEROSPACE & HIGH-END EQUIPMENT GROUND SUPPORT

Aerospace & High-End Equipment Ground Support Systems

Non-flight structures and ground support equipment for commercial aerospace, the low-altitude economy and high-end equipment manufacturing

Building on years of steel structure fabrication and project delivery, Heiner provides integrated services — from structural detailing, factory fabrication, trial assembly and quality inspection to on-site installation — for aerospace testing, assembly integration, equipment transport, maintenance and ground measurement & control.

Not Flight-Hardware Manufacturing — Ground Support Systems

We focus on the ground support needs of rockets, satellites, drones and high-end equipment during assembly, testing, transfer, maintenance and launch preparation — providing non-flight load-bearing structures, mechanical ground support equipment and engineered steel structure systems.

Non-Flight Load-Bearing Structures

They serve support, transport, lifting, assembly, maintenance and testing — staying on the ground rather than forming part of the vehicle itself.

Engineered Customization

Detailed design driven by equipment dimensions, loads, operating environment, lifting method, transport route and site conditions.

Deliverable, Verifiable, Traceable

Material, welding, inspection, coating, trial-assembly and installation records — meeting the quality management requirements of high-end equipment clients.
