Magellan Aerospace has signed a 10-year agreement with Pratt & Whitney Canada (P&WC). The company announced it has agreed that it will supply P&WC with complex magnesium and aluminum castings.

The castings will primarily be produced by Magellans Haley, ON division. However, the Glendale, AZ plant will also provide some castings.

The agreement is expected to generate approximately CDN$250 million in revenue for Magellan through 2023.

This 10-year agreement demonstrates P&WCs confidence in Magellans ability to produce some of the most complex sand cast geometries in the industry. Magellan has invested and will continue to invest in innovative new technologies such as robotics and 3D sand printing to meet its commitment to achieve the highest standard of product and performance, says Magellans President and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Phillip Underwood.

P&WC has been a key customer of Magellan Aerospace, Haley for more than 50 years.  This new long-term agreement recognizes a new level of strategic alignment with P&WC.  In addition to the legacy casting programs for P&WCs current engine platforms, the agreement includes the production of castings for Pratt & Whitneys PurePower engine family which encompasses the  Airbus A320neo, Mitsubishi Regional Jet, and Bombardier CSeries programs.

The solid working relationship we have developed with Magellan over the past 50 years will continue to benefit both companies for many years to come, said Irene Makris, Vice President, Supply Management, Pratt & Whitney Canada. These are highly complex engine components and were confident that Magellan can consistently meet our demanding technical and quality specifications.

Magellan is a world leader in the development and production of aerospace components using the sand cast process.  In addition to P&WC and P&W engines, Magellan castings are used on civil and defence, fixed-wing and rotorcraft programs across the globe.
