Flight Control Actuators
Utility Control Actuators
CROUZET provides electromechanical actuators for flight control surfaces, such as elevator and aileron trim tabs, as well jamming override acuators and variable force feel actuators for pitch control. Also, our trim acuators are complemented by our pedal travel limitation units. CROUZET flight control actuators use RVDTs, potentiometers, and resolvers to capture motion information and interface with the flight control computer.
With more than 14,000 actuators flying, each with a proven MTBF greater than 15,000 FH, CROUZET has the technology, experience and capability to provide a more optimized unit in terms of system weight, cost, aircraft integration, reliability and maintainability. CROUZET electromechanical actuators are designed for safety with the inclusion of over torque limitation, dual load paths and redundant sensors - all according to application requirements. Further, all electrical components used are mature components - logging flying hours for more than 20 years.
We are accustomed to working with both aircraft and system manufacturers in a collaborative environment. When coupled with our extensive and capable on-site test facility, CROUZET is able to support all systems requirements, from development to certification, within the program schedule.
