Around 50 people from different areas of the Center for Engineering and Industrial Development (CIDESI) currently working on a pilot aircraft parts manufacturing test, which registered an advance of between 50 and 60 percent, Calvo announced Alejandra Avila , responsible for the area of quality and accreditation in the aeronautical sector.
In the aeronautics area eight people working, while 30 people are in the specialized area of advanced manufacturing, designers and specialists in metrology.
"An area of CIDESI and it began manufacturing parts and are mounted on airplanes, but we're still working out there is already very advanced project; we are already beginning to this service as well, "he said.
At the moment it is not possible to reveal the name of the company they work for, since the information is still confidential, although given the advance of between 50 and 60 percent recorded and arrangement of documentation and accreditations that are performing soon may give more details of the project.
It addition to this, work on the redesign and optimization of components or unmanned aircraft to have lower weight and greater efficiency; Ávila Calvo said that there are projects with companies to make the switch from metal materials for composites having very similar mechanical properties but is much lighter weight.
"A lot of what we are going to work is to support customers who have in Queretaro and Mexico to improve their products and in the process of improvement is to be worked on this operation because we will be able to do analysis to make proposals, analysis finite or streamlined to help make a better product going from concept to manufacturing element, "he concluded.

MEXICO CITY (11 / Oct / 2015) .- In three years, Mexico will seek to develop its own small satellite for monitoring the country in 15 years and Telecommunications, said the general director of the Mexican Space Agency (AEM) Javier Mendieta Jimenez.
Mexico to develop small satellites monitoring territory; satellites 10 to 100 kilograms.
"In a 15-year horizon, we will already develop telecommunications satellites, which are larger, they are in higher orbit, subject to a more aggressive space environment," he estimated.
According to Mendieta Jimenez, the AEM has three lines of action: the first deals with satellite telecommunications, where the state has made the largest investments directly and where the institution that leads based on the development of satellite systems land, methods of signal reception and transmission.
In addition, he said, the agency also contributes to the generation of content, mostly in Spanish, for education and remote health; cyber telehealth or health and e-government content.
The second major issue is the monitoring of the territory to natural disasters, where he works in a system of early warning to prevent and even predict some weather events, landslides, hurricanes, wildfires, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, oil spills, pollution, among others.
"This is a very important issue, because here intercepts several things, the use of existing information for the community, that we have very important projects with many agencies," he said.
Among these plans it includes receiving signals from satellites of other countries and then some others, in coordination with the National Institute of Statistics and Geography (INEGI), with the entities of national security and civil protection.
Javier Mendieta explained that the third theme is very theme of the Secretariat of Communications and Transportation (SCT); It is related to the GPS systems, global positioning and navigation, called GNSS.
This technology, he said, will drive unprecedented applications for transporting goods and people, whether by land, sea and air transport the future especially where Mexico will seek to be a major player.
