Project description
Robotised system test bench for optimal aircraft operation
Systems play a fundamental role in aviation to ensure optimal aircraft operation and air transport safety. Clean Sky’s Systems Integrated Technology Demonstrator (ITD) increases the efficiency of energy use onboard and guarantees safety standards. The EU-funded ROSSI project will focus on the design and manufacturing of a new generation of fully automated and robotised system test bench. The Robotic Test System for Active Inceptors will be able to receive and control a shipset of generic active inceptors developed under the Clean Sky 2’s Airframe ITD. The test bench will simulate the haptic behaviour of the pilots and their need to adapt to the various configurations and combinations compatible with generic inceptors.
Objective
This project is focused on the design and manufacturing of a new generation of system test bench, fully automatized/robotized, able to receive and to control a shipset of generic active inceptors developed in the frame of ITD SYS. The test bench will simulate the haptic behaviour of the pilots’ hands and needs to be adaptive to the various configurations and combinations compatible with generic inceptor : fixed wings, rotary wings, cyclic and collective functions, throttle type,...).
