European projects - Clean Sky
|
We are particularly active in European research and development projects on theClean Sky platform. The research activity mainly concerns the field of mechanical power transmissions for aeronautical applications.
|
GeT FuTuRe ProjectThe project began in 2018 with the participation of a 3-member consortium: the University of Pisa, Catarsi Ing. Piero, and AM Testing. The project led to the realization of a test bench called IDS (Integral Drive System) for testing a planetary gearbox for aeronautical applications called SAGE 4.

The IDS test benchThe test bench is currently hosted at the CRTM Test Facility of the University of Pisa. It has a mechanical power recirculation architecture with a circulating power of about 20 MW and a maximum rotation speed of 20,000 rpm. The test bench is controlled by a DAQ&C system with about 200 channels and is equipped with a telemetry system that allows the measurement of some peculiar quantities such as, for example, the deformation of the solar teeth. |
Hilogear Project
The HILOGEAR (High load gear and bearing materials) project supports the objectives of maturing differentiating technologies and processes that could be introduced into the innovative drive system module for the UHPE (Ultra High Propulsion Efficiency Engine) demonstrator.
|
|
|
The main tasks and objectives of the HILOGEAR project are:
- The selection, in collaboration with TM, of promising materials and surface treatments suitable for both gears and bearings
- Testing activities on bearings even under contaminated conditions
- Gear testing activities under high load and high temperature conditions similar to those of new engines
