AREAS OF ACTIVITY - DESIGN

Design activity is accomplished through use of CAD system SOLID EDGE that
is fully compatible with Unigraphics and Catia. For stress/strain analysis, FEM software and method is used.

Design and computation of:

  • Airplane and helicopter wheel and skid landing gears,
  • UAV landing gears, with electric brakes and retraction systems
  • "Shimmy" and anti-resonance dampers,
  • Landing gear shock absorbers (single and double acting),
  • Landing gear components down-selection and integration,
  • Test stands,
  • ABS for aircraft brake systems,
  • Actuators and locks,
  • Wheels and high-energy brakes,
  • Intelligent landing gear system.
