CURTISS-WRIGHT SENSORS DIVISION UK COLLABORATES WITH MOOG UK ON FETCH PROJECT

November 10, 2023

 

"As a long-standing supplier to Moog Aircraft in the UK, we are proud to team with them on the Future Engine Technology for the Control of Hydrogen program, working together to help lead the engine market towards a new generation of aircraft engines based on greener propulsion,” said Jeff Troutner, General Manager, of Curtiss-Wright’s Sensors Division. “The FETCH project provides an exciting opportunity to take our innovative LVDT sensor technology to new limits and help tackle the challenges posed in delivering greener, sustainable aviation solutions for the future.”

The FETCH project is supported by the ATI Programme, a joint Government and industry investment to maintain and grow the UK’s competitive position in civil aerospace design and manufacture. The program, delivered through a partnership between the ATI, Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS), and Innovate UK, addresses technology, capability, and supply chain challenges.

Curtiss-Wright Sensors Division is a leading supplier of linear variable differential transformer (LVDT) technology, which is widely used for engine-based position sensing. One of the most accurate and reliable transducer technologies in the market, LVDTs feature contactless sensing, low power consumption, predictable temperature performance and high sensitivity, making them the optimal solution for critical aerospace applications. Curtiss-Wright will combine advanced materials and design techniques to provide accurate and reliable novel LVDT solutions for the challenging environments presented by hydrogen propulsion engine systems for aerospace.

Through its participation in the FETCH project, Curtiss-Wright will further expand the core technical capability present in its Christchurch facility, positioning the UK as a leader in extreme temperature position sensing technologies for aerospace.
