Driving efficiency and safety in aerospace innovation
Reliable cybertronic solutions for sustainable, high-performance aviation.
Cybertronic solutions for sustainable aviation & space
Our EASA‑certified systems deliver high power‑to‑weight performance and unmatched reliability for the aviation industry. With global support, we ensure aircraft manufacturers, system suppliers, and airlines achieve efficiency and safety throughout the entire lifecycle.
As an extension, we are also applying our cybernetic expertise to space technology, creating opportunities for innovative, sustainable space applications.
We also offer strong simulation expertise: Our solutions for realistic flight simulation and training environments support operators and manufacturers in accurately replicating aircraft behavior, safety aspects, and pilot training.
Applications for aviation
Fixed wing and rotary wing
The A380 features an electric door actuation system replacing manual mechanisms, with three actuators for opening, securing, and locking the door. Its cargo loading system uses Power Drive Units (PDUs) to move pallets under all conditions, with self-erecting and spring-loaded PDUs ensuring traction, lift, and weight support during loading and unloading.

Simulation expertise at WITTENSTEIN
Flight simulators enhance air safety significantly. These can be used to provide civilian and military pilots with practical instruction and training. WITTENSTEIN develops advanced Control Loading Systems for flight simulators, which play a crucial role in pilot training by authentically replicating aircraft behavior and failure modes. These turnkey solutions include integrated hardware, actuators, force sensors, and the Aktiv8® software suite, ensuring realistic control feedback for any aircraft type.
Our systems are customizable, supporting both fixed-wing and rotary aircraft such as the Boeing 707, EC135/635, and AW139, and meet all EASA and FAA qualification standards.
For complex mission trainers like the AVCATT system used by the U.S. Army, WITTENSTEIN provides modular actuators and aircraft-specific grips that automatically reconfigure via software to simulate multiple helicopter models, including UH-60, OH-58, CH-47, and AH-64 variants.
