FADEC - Full Authority Digital Electronic Control - system on the Trent 500 engines from Rolls Royce for AIRBUS A340-600 aircraft, the 2nd world largest civil flying aircraft.
Civil electronics regulation calculator:
FADEC systems have been developed to bring an answer to engine and plane makers needs in terms of higher reliability, cost optimization and engine performance. The Full Authority Digital Electronic Control (FADEC) is the main equipment of the regulation system. It ensures engine protection, diagnosis, numerical calculation and electronics command.
CMM micro-connectors from NICOMATIC have been selected inside this critical system. The future shows that a modular design will allow to adapt new generation calculators to multiple tasks while reducing development costs. Moreover, an open architecture is synonymous with an "all electrical" plane development process.
