In this blog, we will dive into the function of rolled rings to unravel their paramount importance in the maritime sector. Read more >>

When discussing aviation in a general sense, it is important to know the difference between fixed- and rotary-wing aircraft. While fixed-wing aircraft feature rigid wing structures that create lift through forward thrust and movement, rotary-wing aircraft feature rotary blades that are generally spun around rapidly to generate the upward force to lift off and fly. Rotary-wing aircraft are particularly useful in situations where traditional fixed-wing aircraft are unable to operate safely, due to the fact that they can regularly hover in place and take off and land vertically.
