The Engineered Products and Solutions segment develops and manufactures products for the aerospace (commercial and defense), commercial transportation and power generation end markets. These products include fastening systems (titanium, steel and nickel superalloys); seamless rolled rings (nickel superalloys); investment castings (nickel superalloys, titanium and aluminum), including airfoils and forged jet engine components (jet engine disks), and various forging and extrusion metal products for the oil and gas, industrial products, automotive, and land and sea defense end markets.

The Engineered Products and Solutions segment includes four business units: Arconic Power and Propulsion (APP); Arconic Fastening Systems and Rings (AFSR); Arconic Forgings and Extrusions (AFE), and Arconic Titanium and Engineered Products (ATEP). APP produces investment cast airfoils for aero engine and industrial gas turbines and structural aero engine and airframe components. AFSR produces aerospace fastening systems and rings, as well as commercial transportation fasteners. AFE produces defense airframe forgings and extrusions, such as forged bulkheads, wing and landing gear components, and lightweight drive shafts for the aerospace and commercial transportation industries. ATEP produces titanium aero ingots and mill products, and provides multi-material airframe subassemblies and solutions related to technologies and materials, such as three dimensional (3D) printing and titanium aluminides.

Transportation and Construction Solutions

The Transportation and Construction Solutions segment produces products that are used in the non-residential building and construction and commercial transportation end markets. These products include integrated aluminum structural systems, architectural extrusions, forged aluminum commercial vehicle wheels and aluminum products for the industrial products end market.
