CIT announces it is now offering its interconnect technologies for air mobility applications
ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla., - Carlisle Interconnect Technologies (CIT) announced that it is now offering its interconnect technologies for next-generation air mobility applications, including More Electric Aircraft (MEA), All Electric Aircraft (AEA), and Advanced Air Mobility (AAM). Automotive, aviation and aerospace manufacturers, as well as independent tech startups, are all working on these emerging technologies to make short-distance, high-speed, little- to no-emission air travel a reality.
These aircraft leverage electrification and automation to transport people, cargo or both more efficiently. Electric aerial vehicles are anticipated to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emission, fuel consumption, noise pollution, and operating costs. Key considerations for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) entering this market include interconnect solutions that conduct or use a high level of electrical power, design optimized for aircraft size, weight, and power, and airworthiness requirements and certifications.
CIT is well-positioned to meet the unique needs electric aircraft developers to build an electrical system that can generate, maintain, distribute, and insulate the high voltages required electric air travel. Leveraging more than 80 years of experience, the company’s broad portfolio of custom solutions includes air and ground systems, test and measurement devices, data and power ecosystems, and more to help developers build the high-voltage electrical systems needed for these cutting-edge aircraft.
