Precision actuation solutions for critical flight applications
Liebherr delivers flight control solutions that combine reliability, precision, and innovative technology to meet the highest industry standards.
- High lift systems
- Primary flight control systems
- Main and tail rotor actuation

High lift systems
High lift systems optimize take-off and landing by increasing wing lift through leading and trailing edge extension devices. These systems can be powered hydraulically, electrically, or via hybrid technology. For electrically driven solutions, Liebherr develops specialized motor control units.
Flap and slat actuation
To extend the movable trailing and leading-edge surfaces, Liebherr designs and manufactures flap and slat actuation systems. These systems include components like power control units, geared rotary actuators, ball screw actuators, transmission shafts, and position sensors. Liebherr’s expertise covers not only the components but also the system controller, including both hardware and software.
