Curtiss-Wright will showcase our latest innovations in Exlar electromechanical actuation.

GVSETS & Modernization Update provides the opportunity to personally network and share technical research to approximately 1,800 attendees. The focus of the 2025 Ground Vehicle Systems Engineering Technology Symposium (GVSETS) is partnering with industry, government, and academia to meet the Army's transformational needs.

INTERNATIONAL PARIS AIR SHOW 2025, Le Bourget, Paris, France (Hall 3-D28) – June 12, 2025 – Curtiss-Wright Corporation today announced that it is supplying its innovative, extremely compact single-axis servo controller technology to Airbus UpNext in support of the eXtra performance WING demonstrator which is focused on reducing fuel consumption of future aircraft and contributing to aerospace decarbonization strategies. Curtiss-Wright’s Nano Motion Controller is designed for use in precision drive systems with size, weight, and power (SWaP) constraints. The servo controller, developed by Curtiss-Wright’s Defense Solutions Division’s facility in Neuhausen Switzerland, complements the Company’s custom electro-mechanical actuation system used on the demonstrator aircraft. This system will feature the complete package of equipment for enabling the semi-aeroelastic hinge function on the scaled demonstrator aircraft which integrates the eXtra performance WING on a Cessna Citation VII business jet platform. 

"We are very proud to support Airbus UpNext in the development of their innovative eXtra performance WING demonstrator with our field-proven precision motion control technology,” said Brian Perry, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Curtiss-Wright Defense Solutions Division. “In collaboration with our Sensors & Actuation division, we are pleased to deliver the complete electro-mechanical actuation solution for the biologically inspired semi-aeroelastic hinge function on the demonstrator aircraft.“

The eXtra performance WING demonstrator, launched in September 2021, takes inspiration from nature to improve wing aerodynamics and performance that is intended to be compatible with any future aircraft configuration and propulsion system to reduce fuel consumption and, as a consequence, CO₂ emissions. 
 
The Curtiss-Wright technology will be integrated into the wing during summer 2025, ready for ground testing and subsequently flight testing in 2026. 

About the Nano Motion Controller 
The Nano Motion Controller is an exceptionally compact (5.4 x 5.3 x 3.8 in/138 x 135 x 97mm) and lightweight (<5 lbs/2 kg) unit that generates up to 120A of peak current with 28V input power to deliver more than 3kW of power.  For the eXtra performance WING demonstrator, the Nano Motion Controller was equipped with an additional internal DC/DC converter to increase the motor voltage from 28V to 50V and was qualified to meet the DO-160 (Environmental Conditions and Test Procedures for Airborne Equipment) standard. 

Curtiss-Wright designs and manufactures its electric actuation products at its Shelby, N.C., Stratford, Ontario, and Neuhausen am Rheinfall, Switzerland facilities.

SHELBY, NC­­ – November 1, 2024 – Curtiss-Wright’s Actuation Division today announced the expansion of its popular Exlar® electric actuator product offerings to include hygienic actuators with FDA-approved materials and finishes. Designed for automation systems in the food & beverage, packaging, and pharmaceutical industries, the GTF helps customers to achieve hygienic certifications such as USDA, 3-A, BISSC, and EHEDG more economically than currently available products in the market. 

“Supporting the growing world population and food safety initiatives, our hygienic GTF electric design further establishes Curtiss-Wright as a leader in safe, green, actuation technologies,” said Phil Bowker, VP/Senior General Manager at Curtiss-Wright Actuation Division. “With this innovation, manufacturers can meet strict hygienic standards and certifications with our proven Exlar products that have been the gold standard in linear actuation for the past three decades.”

The GTF is elegantly designed to offer numerous configuration options including an IP69K washdown variant, critical for motion applications with potential food contact. As with all Exlar integrated actuators, the high-performance inverted roller screw, servo-driven design, and compact form make the GTF ideal for builders of hygienic machinery to easily incorporate into their designs.
