Precision Landing for Aviation Safety.

Individually designed Planetary Drive and Toothing Components for Aviation

On an aircraft the high-lift system controls the leading-edge slats and the landing flaps to reduce the distance required when taking off and landing. If the main hydraulic system malfunctions, the electro-mechanical back-up system cuts in.

SPN supplies custom-designed planetary gear units and gear components for this system that meet the highest demands: Besides low wall thickness, important factors for a weight-optimised design are positive-fitting joints with high safety factors and 100% corrosion resistance.

Stringent test methods and seamless documentation of all steps guarantee maximum safety in this highly sensitive field.

- Use of anodised aircraft aluminium and special stainless steel

- Surface treatment with dry lubricant

- Chromate conversion coating of the grounding contacts

- Sealing rings made of PTFE

- Temperature-resistant lubricating grease
