Flight Control Actuation
Overview
Aircraft flight control systems are evolving from leaky, bulky, and heavy hydraulic systems towards more electric, smart, and self-monitoring systems. Honeywell has high pedigree in the design, development and production of electro-mechanical (EM) actuators that are smaller, lighter, more reliable, more cost-efficient, and have greater power density than typical aerospace-grade actuators available today. Our novel designs results in high-integrity and high availability actuation that supports the most stringent aircraft certification requirements.
Our Differentiation
Our actuators have built in Fail Passive architecture, sophisticated motor controls, dis-similarity, and redundancy. When coupled with Honeywell’s Fly-by-wire Systems, we deliver a fully integrated offering that provides customers with the best Flight Surface Control system user experience.
Markets Served
Honeywell also has significant experience in the traditional markets such as Air Transport & Regionals, BGA and Defense. We augment our legacy positions in these markets, with breakthrough technology for Electromechanical actuators on next generation platforms.
