ES3 is an aerospace engineering company specializing in the design, development, and manufacture of landing gear systems. For more than 20 years, ES3 has been the system integrator for redesign, flight qualification, and fleet retrofits on landing gear systems that include structures, hydraulics, and rolling stock (wheels, brakes, and antiskid).
ES3 is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of Onboard Weight and Balance Systems (OBWBS) with more than five years of in-fleet service and an outstanding record of performance and reliability. We are a Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) provider for such platforms as C-5 airframes and F-16 wings, including structural upgrades and modifications. ES3 scientists have successfully developed physics-based, high-fidelity software that assists our engineers in performing advanced computational simulations for (1) the response of structures to extreme loading conditions involving a variety of materials including our continuous fiber composite structures and (2) the precise deposition of coatings on electroplated surfaces involving our patented conformal anode fixture designs. ES3 develops new materials and processes for aerospace that are environmentally responsible. Our highly engineered advanced coating and electroplating systems have been installed in a variety of facilities at aerospace OEMs and overhaulers, eliminating tons of highly toxic cadmium and hexavalent chrome from aerospace processing.
ES3 enjoys a corporate culture that values engineering excellence above all else. As a result, we deliver rewarding work experiences to our staff and responsive project teams to our customers.
