Industrial Services for the Aerospace & Defence Industry

Aerospace and defence manufacturing demands exceptional precision and traceability. Klose Industrial Service provides specialist handling for high-value, oversized, and sensitive equipment across aircraft manufacturing, MRO facilities, and defence production — with documentation and chain-of-custody protocols that satisfy the sector's most demanding auditors.

Our experience spans composite layup machines, five-axis CNC machining centres, engine test cells, autoclaves, and large assembly jigs. These assets are heavy, dimensionally critical, and intolerant of shock and vibration — so we engineer transport and installation around alignment tolerances and condition monitoring, not just weight.

For defence work we apply secure logistics, controlled access, and traceability appropriate to the programme. Whether relocating a single high-value tool or fitting out a new MRO line, we protect calibration, geometry, and confidentiality from rigging through to hand-back.

Industry Challenges We Solve

High-value, shock-sensitive assets

A single machining centre or test cell can represent enormous capital value and lead time. We use engineered lift plans, shock-monitored transport, and controlled set-down to protect geometry and avoid programme-stopping damage.

Precision alignment and re-qualification

Aerospace tooling must return to tolerance. We plan for laser alignment, levelling, and the re-qualification steps that get a machine back into certified production quickly.

Traceability and secure logistics

Programmes demand documented chain-of-custody and, for defence, controlled access. We provide full traceability and secure handling appropriate to the sensitivity of the equipment and the contract.

How We Serve the Aerospace Sector

  • Industrial Relocations — Relocation of CNC centres, layup machines, jigs and test cells with alignment and re-qualification planning.
  • Heavy Lifting & Rigging — Engineered lifts for oversized, high-value tooling in and out of constrained production halls.
  • Export Packaging & Logistics — Shock-monitored, traceable packaging and transport for high-value and oversized aerospace assets.
  • Maintenance & Field Service — Installation, levelling and commissioning support to return tooling to certified production.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you protect high-value aerospace tooling in transit?

We engineer the move around alignment tolerances and shock sensitivity — using purpose-built supports, shock-monitored transport, and controlled set-down — and document the condition of the asset throughout.

Can you support secure defence logistics?

Yes. We apply documented chain-of-custody, controlled access, and secure handling appropriate to the programme and the sensitivity of the equipment.

Do you handle re-qualification after installation?

We plan for laser alignment, levelling and the re-qualification steps your quality system requires, coordinating with your engineers to return the tool to certified production.
