INTELLIGENT ACTUATION

INTELLIGENT ACTUATION

As world leaders in high-pressure hydraulic control systems, amongst other projects, we have developed systems for Land Rover BAR’s America’s Cup yacht as well as game-changing active aero systems for several hypercars.

We increase performance, lower emissions, reduce mass and achieve lightweighting through the use of aluminium and titanium, using both machining and additive manufacturing techniques.

A state-of-the-art clean room and on-site manufacturing facilities mean we can fast track programmes from concept to production, delivering finished systems directly to the production line.

CASE STUDIES

With the ability to bring together multi-skilled engineering teams in agile teams for individual projects, we have proven time and again our ability to deliver projects that exceed the client’s requirements.

Read about some of our previous work related to this field of engineering below.

DUAL-STAGE ACTIVE REAR WING

With forces of up to 6000N on the rear wing, we brought knowledge from outside the automotive industry to design and make this active aero system. Delivering finished parts direct to the factory production line.

LAND ROVER BAR AMERICA'S CUP

We developed all the control systems for the Land Rover BAR America's Cup yacht. Our hydraulic systems controlled the foils, enabling Sir Ben Ainslie's team to precisely balance the boat to optimise its performance.

HYPERCAR ACTIVE AERO SYSTEMS

We developed one of the most sophisticated automotive electro-hydraulic control systems in our in-house clean room.
