Parker Aerospace developed and certified an alternate flight control unit (AFCU) that allows for full independent control using dedicated flight deck sensors and the existing hydraulic actuators on the control surfaces. With certification agencies demanding greater independence bmore...
Force (lbf) : 1500 lbf to greater than 120,000 lbf
Stroke Range : 0.2 inch to over 16 inches stop-to-stop
Parker Aerospace fly-by-wire (FBW) primary and secondary flight control actuators have demonstrated highly reliable, fault-tolerant, precise position-control solutions for commercial and military applications for decades. Fly-by-wire flight control actuators receive signals from more...
Parker Aerospace linear and rotary electromechanical actuators (EMAs) offer a safe and reliable means to control primary and secondary aircraft control surfaces, based on pilot or autopilot commands. With over 25 years of electromechanical flight control actuation, Parker has a smore...
APPLICATIONS : Business jets • Commercial transports
Weight (lbs) : 7 lbs
The AFCU is designed for simplicity and includes a power supply (including for the dedicated flight deck sensors), feedback demodulation, application of the simplified control laws, servo loop control, and engagement signals to one actuator on each primary control surface. The asmore...
Output Rating (HP) : 0.15 - 4.4 HP peak power range
With over 25 years of electromechanical flight control actuation, Parker has a strong heritage in electromechanical actuation and motor control for aerospace applications. Our EMAs allow for electronic control conversion to mechanical displacement through using AC or DC motor conmore...
FEATURES : Highly reliable performance o Single and dual hydraulic o Single and multiple electrical channel
Operating Pressure (psi) : 3000 to 5000 psi
Fly-by-wire flight control actuators receive signals from the flight control computer and convert them into control surface motion for optimal flight control and flying qualities. Parker Aerospace FBW actuators have proven reliability and performance records on a wide variety of more...
