What WE DID:
- Custom designed, built, and manufactured a safe flight control actuation system to provide both horizontal stabilizer trim actuation and roll boost functionality for a unique captive carry vehicle.
- IE-09 safety requirements and extreme environmental compliance.
- Low rate initial production.
The Environments:
- Air
The challenge requirements:
- Application had numerous, extensive performance and environmental requirements that were equal to or greater than that of traditional commercial aircraft.
- System must be qualified such that no single event could cause catastrophic structural separation.
Our approach:
- Methodical approach to requirement definition and analysis.
- Partnered with our customer to ensure that all safety and environmental requirements were understood and met.
- Utilized unique architecture to achieve safety level compliance.
The Solution:
- An electrically and dynamically simple system with structural redundancy to ensure that no single failure could cause catastrophic structural separation.
