We support flexible shaft couplings in aerospace. It helps to shift slightly owing to
temperature and height changes enabling the coupling to handle minor angular & parallel misalignments.
For the past 180 years, S.S. White has been offering flexible shafts as a versatile solution for power transmission needs. These shafts cater to various requirements such as component connection, compensating for lateral and angular offsets, navigating obstacles, dampening vibrations, and managing displacement. They can be used with or without casing, depending on the length and intended application.
Our core values serve as the guiding principles that drive everything we do. We passionately embrace
and uphold the highest standards of professional ethics and personal integrity.
Shaft couplings for aircraft are leveraged for connecting the driving and driven components. It assists in transmitting power and motion in both ways.
Our drive shafts are specifically designed to provide premium quality military usabilities & flawless defence operations.
We provide specialized shaft coupling designs & manufacturing for use in spacecraft and aircraft. Offering superior quality couplings we provide custom designs catering to the business requirements.
Serving a wide range of applications
We provide customized solutions that cater to the distinct needs of various applications.
The main purpose of the thrust reverser actuation system is to aid in slowing down the aircraft after landing. Flexible shaft assemblies supplied by S. S. White, transmit power to actuators, enabling the control of thrust reversers in both pneumatic and electrically powered systems and synchronized actuators in hydraulically actuated systems.
Flaps and slats are crucial aerodynamic features for aircraft, particularly during takeoff and landing. Both surfaces employ two linear actuators connected to a centralized transmission system, ensuring reliable control. S.S. White flexible shafts drive these actuators, enabling the extension and retraction of both flaps and slats.
The control system for fighter jet afterburner nozzles manages the operation of the afterburner system. The system consists of actuators, flexible shafts, control mechanisms, and sensors. S.S. White flexible shafts are used to transmit power from the control mechanisms to the actuators that operate the afterburner nozzles.
