Triumph to provide thrust reverser cowl opening systems for Safran on A320neo

Triumph Group, Inc. signed a long-term agreement with Safran Nacelles to provide thrust reverser cowl opening system (TRCOS) actuators for the engine nacelle on the A320neo aircraft. Under the contract, Triumph Integrated Systems will design, develop and supply proprietary actuators to Safran for each nacelle built for the A320neo powered by CFM International LEAP-1A engine offering, with Safran serving as the systems integrator.

"We are pleased to support Safran with our unique and highly reliable cowl opening actuators on the LEAP-1A engine offering for the A320neo aircraft," said Tom Holzthum, executive vice president for Triumph Integrated Systems. "This agreement builds on our longstanding relationship with Safran Nacelles and further augments our leadership position in supplying cowl door actuators to the aerospace industry."

Triumph Integrated Systems' Fluid Power and Actuation operating company in Clemmons, North Carolina, will perform the work on the TRCOS actuators, strengthening Triumph's already extensive systems presence on the A320 family of aircraft.
