The new Super-TAC IMU integrates three fiber optic gyros that exceed tactical grade performance with three high-accuracy Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) accelerometers and state-of-the-art support electronics in a single small, lightweight package. This solution addresses the need for superior inertial performance in a tactical- grade package, critical for operation in GPS denied and contested environments. The Super-TAC IMU measures change in velocity and angle, utilizing a configurable variable synchronous data link control (SDLC) digital serial bus. The Super-TAC is configured to offer customers the best value solution when designing new systems as well as provide the flexibility to upgrade existing platforms. The Super-TAC IMU employs state-of-the-art optics with fewer components, providing significant performance and reliability improvements across standard military environments. Background Emcore, located in Budd Lake, NJ has been designing, developing and producing inertial components, sensors and navigation systems for Space, Ground, and Avionic applications for over 35 years. Emcore has been developing Fiber Optic Gyros (FOGs) since the early 1990s, producing and delivering IMU products with performance ranging from tactical to strategic grade PERFORMANCE GYRO PERFORMANCE Bias Stability < 0.05 °/hr.

This EGR-Cooler prototype, developed in collaboration with Hyundai Motor Company, was fabricated using EOS Stainless Steel 316L, renowned for its excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical properties in demanding automotive applications. The part was additively manufactured over a period of 64 hours, demonstrating the advanced capabilities of metal 3D printing for precision and reliability. Unlike conventional designs, this innovative component integrates 14 separate parts into a single, unified structure, greatly simplifying assembly while enhancing operational efficiency. The implementation of a Triply Periodic Minimal Surface (TPMS) structure within the cooler significantly improves heat exchange performance and enables substantial weight reduction, meeting next-generation thermal management requirements. Partners Lab stands as a leader in Korean additive manufacturing technology, offering cutting-edge capabilities in OEM production and collaborative technical development for various industrial sectors. This EGR-Cooler, designed by nTopology, exemplifies our engineering expertise and commitment to delivering high-performance thermal products for automotive and beyond.

FOSTEC optical fiber pin/socket terminals are designed to connect to each other through physical contact. POSTECH's unique alignment technology maximizes optical performance and provides reliability.

The AMT-206-1 composite tail rotor blade is a direct replacement for Bell 206A and 206B series helicopter tail rotor blades. Now fitted with a new style of feathering bearings manufactured by KAMATICS. These bearings provide a longer life expectancy, with a patented lining that provides lighter pedal loads and a higher level of chemical resistance, compared to that of the standard fabric Teflon-lined bearings. The AMT-206-1 tail rotor blade has a non-symmetrical airfoil section and incorporates a swept tip. The T/R Blade is primarily fabricated from uni-directional Graphite (carbon fiber) and Aramid (Kevlar™) continuous fibers suspended in an epoxy matrix and is fitted with a nickel abrasion strip on the leading edge. The abrasion strip is bonded on using a urethane adhesive. The AMT-206-1 composite tail rotor blades have a 30% cost advantage, twice the lifespan, higher strength and thrust, and a substantial noise reduction, making them safer and ideal for helicopter operators flying in noise-sensitive areas like national parks and built-up areas.

Depending on the applications of our customers we offer a very wide range of technical solutions of assemblies and / or mechanical subassemblies with various characteristics. ABC offers a wide range of solutions ranging from micro-mechanics to large systems, based on standard solutions already developed and / or customized solutions as needed by the customer.

The engine features advanced Full Authority Digital Electronic Control (FADEC) and an integrated Engine Monitoring System (EMS) to keep tabs on engine health, monitor usage and streamline troubleshooting. Modular design makes the engine faster and easier to repair, enabling maintenance teams to put training instructors and student pilots where they belong, back in the air, quickly and efficiently. Safety is paramount in the flight training world and the T-100 provides an additional safety margin by using two F124 engines. The F124 offers all this and more, backed by the global resources of Honeywell and a reputation earned in producing some of the world’s best turbine engines over more than six decades.

The world’s most advanced and mature high-performance ultraminiature connectors, the Series 80 Mighty Mouse matches the electrical and mechanical performance of popular mil-standard connectors, but in a smaller and lighter package for tactical military, aerospace, and soldier-worn electronics. Series 804 Quick-Disconnect and Series 824 Locking Push-Pull versions offer environmental sealing and rugged design in a lightweight, push-pull package used for headsets, radios, weapons and other applications. Series 806 meets D38999 performance meeting immersion requirements and provide excellent durability, sealing, and EMI shielding at just half the size and weight of D38999. Series 811 is even higher density in the same shell size offerings. There are now over 150 insert arrangements covering the spectrum of systems requirements. The high-performance Mighty Mouse is now specified on hundreds of mission-critical soldier and mil/aero applications worldwide and continuing to add more....
