As aerospace manufacturers face rising pressure to meet rigorous standards like Nadcap and AMS2750, precision and repeatability in thermal processing have become non-negotiable. Every degree, every minute, and every data point must be tightly controlled and thoroughly documented. This demand for exactness has pushed many operations to reassess the capabilities and limitations of their existing furnace control systems.

Why SCADA Is Crucial for Aerospace Audit Readiness Under AMS2750 & Nadcap

If your facility performs heat treating in the aerospace industry, chances are you’re already familiar with AMS2750 and Nadcap. Both are designed to ensure aerospace components are heat treated consistently, safely and in compliance with exacting specifications.

Audit readiness for Nadcap is a core requirement for maintaining contracts and credibility in the aerospace sector. But compliance involves more than just following procedures; it requires extensive documentation, real-time monitoring, and traceable control over every aspect of your process.

That’s where modern SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) systems become indispensable. SCADA gives you the tools to collect, log and review data automatically, minimizing the chance of human error and ensuring your process stays within spec—every time. For aerospace suppliers aiming to meet AMS2750 and pass Nadcap audits with confidence, a robust SCADA system is essential, and we’ll cover why in this article.
