Moog Controls Limited

The FETCH project is led by Moog together with the partners Bath University, Cranfield University, sensor specialists Druck/Curtiss Wright and bearing specialist Carter Manufacturing. The project will develop and demonstrate a fuel control system for aircraft hydrogen gas turbines together with non-fueldraulic geometry electro mechanical actuation systems.

Project CONVERGENCE delivers a structured approach to implementing a 'digital thread'; incorporating Industry 4.0 innovative technologies such as future factory design modelling and optimisation, smart automation and flow-line enhancement. The industry led project is supported by key suppliers and research organisation capabilities. The increased capacity...

Electrical machines such as electric motors currently have limitations caused by the failure of critical components at elevated temperatures. Research at the University of Nottingham has focused on developing a deep understanding of the primary cause of this limitation - the degradation of the insulation surrounding the copper coil within the motor. This ...

It is estimated that 150,000 people per year will suffer a below knee amputation and this is increasing due to increases in the prevalence of diabetes and related vascular disease. The loss of mobility that comes from loss of limb leads to decreased social and economic participation as well as further health issues. Current prosthetic feet do not adequate...

Vehicle efficiency, regardless of the powertrain type, can be increased through several strategies, including reducing weight, aerodynamic drag, reduction in rolling resistance and powertrain efficiency. Out of all, weight reduction is considered to have the greatest potential to increase vehicle efficiency and thus to reduce the CO2 emissions. The object...

NEMICA is a UK collaborative research and development project between Microsemi, Moog and the Universities of Bristol and Southampton. The project aims to develop reprogrammable memories and gate arrays based on Nano-Relay technology that are capable of withstanding long term exposure to 225oC and/or 100Mrads. The primarily target application will be avio...

The uptake of additive manufacturing processes in higher volume production is significantly limited by the lack of an integrated solution for the manufacture of precision components which require further finishing processes. Project FALCON (Finishing of Additive Layer Components On a Novel platform) aims to deliver a disruptive and logically integrated hy...

A consortium including Moog Controls Ltd, Renishaw Plc and the University of Bath has been funded to investigate new integrated motion control devices. The consortium are conducting research and development in the fields of selective laser melting, piezoelectric actuation and non-contact absolute digital position sensing. The technical aims of this work a...
