CESA to participate in the Conference as a presenter
“Recent Advances in Aerospace Actuation Systems and Components (R3ASC)”
CESA will give a presentation at the international conference on R3ASC (Recent Advances in Aerospace Actuation Systems and Components) in Toulouse next 16, 17 and 18 March at Hotel Mercure Compans Cafarelli. This event is being organised by the School of Mechanical Engineering of the Institut National des Sciences Appliquées and the Institut Clément Ader.
The R3ASC conference is held every two years. This edition will explore the latest advances in the aerospace actuation industry since 2014, the year that some one hundred industrial entrepreneurs, experts and scientists from around the world attended the conference’s sixth edition. Among the companies taking part are the distinguished Agusta Westland, Liebherr -Aerospace- Lindenberg GmbH, Sener, Safran Messier-Bugatti-Dowty, Airbus Operations SAS, Safran Sagem Défense et Sécurité, Moog Inc, TTTech, Airbus Operations GmbH, UTC Goodrich France, Thales Systèmes Aéroportés, SKF Aerospace and CESA.
The presenters, CESA among them, will address scientific and technical questions on issues involving the commercial, civil and military markets, reliability, safety and health monitoring, multidisciplinary optimisations, generation and distribution of energy, energy management, transmission of signals and control (such as FbW and FbL, wireless and smart actuators), ground and in-flight testing, verification and validation, simulation, virtual prototypes and many more questions related to aerospace actuation.
CESA will be focusing on presenting two different electromechanical actuator (EMA) models, along with electronic control units (ECUs). Both of these pieces of equipment are based on direct actuation architecture for a load capacity of up to 30 KN. These EMAs also feature a patented anti-lock system patented by CESA, with a current state of development of TLR (Technology Readiness Level) 4.
These actuators are being developed for critical safety programs, such as primary flight controls like the e-rudder actuator and the landing gear retraction actuator. They are characterised by the use of three different control functions managed by the ECU: active mode, damping mode and anti-lock mode.
