Defense & Aerospace

The aerospace industry—and especially general aviation applications—where safety and reliability is critical, and where exposure to the elements can cause problems with equipment, it is essential to use motors manufactured in accordance to AS9100 Aerospace Standards. Aerospace engineers constantly face the challenge of designing products that will be exposed to a variety of environments including snow, ice, dust, mud, airborne particulates, and other miscellaneous debris.

• Motors assembled in accordance with AS9100 standards
• IP65 & IPX7 Rated Stepper Motors Available
• US Based Support & Manufacturing
• Quick Motor Prototyping

Taking environmental conditions under consideration during the design process, will allow for product features that can eliminate even microscopic levels of dust. Although, IP ratings assure that levels of dust and moisture are within the range of the protection code they are given, additional elements must also be controlled—like the ability to operate under the wide temperature ranges.

Material selection is a critical design concern when working with aerospace industry applications. Not only must the devices be properly sealed, they must provide components longevity to maintain operation when located in area that may be exposed to the environment.

For motor design, the proper IP Ratings might require permanent joints that are continuous. Motor surfaces that are smooth, impervious, and free of sharp corners. Because we’ve worked in this industry for years, our motors are ideal for aerospace applications.
