2023-06-20
JPB Système, manufacturer of cost- and time-saving technology solutions for aerospace, aeronautic and other industries, has announced that it has manufactured five million separate flight parts since the start of its production operations over twenty years ago.
The milestone predominantly comprises component parts used to produce JPB Système’s innovative LULYLOK™ B-nut self-locking device and borescope self-locking plug, both of which are supplied to global aircraft engine manufacturers including Safran, Rolls Royce, GE and Pratt & Whitney. The figure also includes a number of other smaller parts, fittings and fasteners produced across the company’s Industry 4.0 enabled manufacturing facilities.
As an advanced B-nut for fittings, JPB Système’s LULYLOK™ solution features a unique self-locking device to ensure the sealing of pipes and tubes, thereby preventing loosening and leakage caused by severe vibration and extreme thermal conditions.

Crucially, LULYLOK™ addresses safety concerns by eliminating the need for a lock-wire or safety cable, tab washers, cotter pins or any other method of fastening to secure the threaded parts within an aircraft’s engine. This eliminates foreign object damage while reducing maintenance costs and installation time.
Similarly, the simple-to-use self-locking borescope plug – which, like LULYLOK™, comprises four separate components – eradicates the need for lock-wires when securing an engine’s connections prior to visual inspection. Initially created for SAFRAN in the 1990’s, the device reduces human error and overall risk while improving efficiencies by reducing maintenance time from one hour to just 10 seconds.

As has been the case for many years, JPB Système’s self-locking devices are deployed by many of the world’s leading aerospace manufacturers across various aircraft engine types. These include the CFM56 from GE/Safran joint venture CFM International – acknowledged as the best-selling engine in commercial aviation history and the standard engine across the Airbus A320 and Boeing 737 families; as well as CFM’s LEAP-1A, 1B and 1C engines, Pratt & Whitney’s GTF and Rolls Royce’s Trent 1000 for the Boeing 787 Dreamliner.
