TE Connectivity is a company that designs and manufactures connector and sensor products for harsh environments in a variety of industries. One of their primary clients is the aerospace industry, for which they provide actuators and relays, among other products. We worked on an innovative design for actuators to be used in aircraft. Weight is an important consideration in aerospace applications, and we designed a mechanism that is reliable, low weight and low power.
