Realization of an actuation system demonstrator (EMA+ ECU)

The system will involve one or more moving surfaces that overcome the technological limitations currently highlighted in terms of safety of the individual components.

The objectives related to the development of the implementation system will be:

Weight reduction 30%

grazie all’applicazione di tecniche di additive manufacturing per la realizzazione dei componenti strutturali e per alcuni componenti funzionali dell’EMA

Cost reduction 20%

grazie all’applicazione di tecniche di additive manufacturing per la realizzazione dei componenti strutturali e per alcuni componenti funzionali dell’ EMA

System safety and reliability requirements

Dual path architecture of the actuation pistons, Development of an antilock system that guarantees the operation of the actuator in the event of mechanical blocking of one of the two pistons, Integration of monitoring sensors of the actuation system components, Integration of health monitoring and prognostic algorithms of the actuator in the control SW
