Liebherr will manufacture the thrust reverser actuation system for the Rolls-Royce Pearl 10X engine from its Lindenberg facility.
Liebherr Aerospace has been selected by Spirit AeroSystems to supply the thrust reverser actuation system for the Rolls-Royce Pearl 10X engine following a successful preliminary design review.
Leveraging its expertise, Liebherr developed the new system in a short time to be fully compliant to the latest REACH requirements, which is a step on the path towards an environmentally friendly aircraft.
It profits from its knowledge of hydraulic and mechanical actuation, that it says is proven by uncountable flight hours in commercial and business aviation. The thrust reverser actuation is being developed based on technologies that are available at Liebherr.
Despite the very demanding situation during COVID-19 it says the high quality cooperation between Spirit AeroSystems and Liebherr enabled the development team to achieve the first significant development milestone on time.
