Ascent Aerospace

Ascent Aerospace combines assembly line integration and factory automation with our heritage tooling businesses, to provide turnkey production solutions from one, vertically-integrated organization. We employ more than 800 industry professionals across 11 locations, with five factories and two dedicated engineering centers of excellence. But, at Ascent, we are much more than the sum of our parts. We pull together the unparalleled skills and knowledge of the best-respected experts in their fields, to provide complete solutions, without ever compromising on excellence. We offer the best of both worlds: the know-how of niche businesses and the scale and capacity of a global company. Together our businesses, each an industry leader in its own right, cover the full spectrum of automation technology. Whatever the need or application, we provide affordable, right-sized solutions. As a vertically integrated organization, we rarely have to set foot outside Ascent to procure key elements of the supply chain. It gives us greater control over timing and schedules, allows for 100% accountability, and avoids costly mark-ups. It's no surprise, then, that our customers include the biggest and best names in aerospace. Virtually every western commercial aircraft in production today is made using our technology, machines and systems.
