Commercial Flight Controls Division

Our control actuation technology for primary and secondary flight control systems has been tested, proven, and trusted in commercial applications for decades, providing precise position control actuation solutions that are optimized for high reliability and fault-tolerant performance.

Electrohydrostatic actuation (EHA) and electric backup hydraulic actuation (EBHA) are power-by-wire systems that deliver less system weight, enhanced avionics integration, and reduced lifecycle costs.

Offering efficient, lightweight, reliable, and low-cost solutions that reduce overall power consumption and program expense, our innovative electromechanical, electronic, and motor-control and drive actuation systems are leading the way. 

Parker Aerospace has been involved with aircraft hydraulics from the early days of transatlantic flight up to modern more-electric designs. 

At the heart of every more-electric system is the electronics control unit, providing innovative command and control through closed-loop feedback networks. Whether in primary or backup mode, the world’s new aircraft are increasingly adopting electric flight control actuation. 

Additive manufacturing (AM) is rising to meet aerospace industry demands, in many cases offering greater agility, process improvements, supply chain optimization and cost savings than traditional manufacturing techniques. 

Our flight control experience extends across commercial platforms and we’ve embraced a wide range of industry-changing programs. Our experience has taught us how to identify and minimize risks effectively, create better solutions, and add value to both the product and the process.
