Curtiss-Wright is highlighting a series of advancements in its aerospace technology offerings, including a major product line expansion and new collaborations supporting sustainable aviation, this week at the Paris Air Show. The company is&nbsp;also showcasing a range of aerospace solutions for commercial and defense platforms.
Company demonstrations this week at the airshow include a fully integrated flight test and control system, next-generation arresting system, and electromechanical wingfold actuator. A side-by-side surface treatment display will highlight fatigue and corrosion resistance improvements in engine components.
“Our portfolio of ruggedized, safety, and mission-critical technologies is producing tremendous value for our customers,” said Curtiss-Wright chair and CEO Lynn M. Bamford.
The company’s sensors and actuation division&nbsp;has broadened its product portfolio with the addition of Weed Instrument’s aerospace temperature sensors as part of the recent acquisition of Ultra Energy. These sensors use proprietary platinum RTD (resistance temperature detector) technology and are crucial for precise temperature monitoring in engines, fuel systems, and air management systems. The addition complements Curtiss-Wright’s existing position, proximity, and speed sensors and further enhances its aerospace capabilities.
Additionally, Curtiss-Wright is supplying its Nano Motion Controller to Airbus UpNext for the eXtra performance WING demonstrator program. The controller supports a semi-aeroelastic hinge function intended to improve aerodynamic efficiency.
As part of the WING program, the system is scheduled for integration into a modified Cessna Citation VII in the third quarter, with ground and flight testing planned through 2026. This project aligns with broader industry efforts to explore technologies aimed at reducing fuel consumption in future aircraft platforms.
