Liebherr Focuses on Smaller Actuators and Thinner Wings
Singapore exhibit showcases electromechanical innovation
Liebherr service center in Singapore
Liebherr Aerospace’s Singapore service center is introducing new maintenance, repair, and overhaul techniques.

Liebherr Aerospace is targeting research and development investments in small-scale electromechanical actuators for advanced air mobility vehicles, as well as for light aircraft, business jets, and helicopters. The European group seeks to leverage expertise accumulated from producing the technology, including the associated electronic systems, for larger commercial aircraft that have collectively logged millions of flight hours.

At the Singapore Airshow, the latest actuators are part of a focus on technology advances by Liebherr’s engineering team. The Toulouse-based group is also exhibiting the latest versions of its air cycle machines for airliner air conditioning systems, signaling the move away from pneumatic technology towards electrical or mechanical operations.
