| Visitors to Moog stand number B270 (Hall 5) will be able to take part in a number of dynamic demonstrations that highlight Moog's ability to deliver world-class high performance solutions. Eurosatory will see the introduction of two new systems: The Electrically Articulated Grenade Launcher System (EAGLS) and the Moog Turret Test System, both of which will be shown for the first time. The Electrically Articulated Grenade Launcher System (EAGLS) is designed to accommodate the 66mm family of non-lethal grenades, including both smoke and anti-riot. It is an electromechanically controlled, dual-axis drive mechanism for positioning two grenade discharge racks at four discrete elevation angles, corresponding to desired firing ranges. Each discharge rack contains six grenades and allows the operator to individually deploy a combination of smoke and/or non-lethal blunt trauma and distraction grenades at distances up to 100 meters. |

 The Moog Turret Test System is based on a high performance 6 Degrees of Freedom (DOF) electric motion system with powerful test software to simulate test tracks and test performance of the turret stabilizer. |

The
Moog Turret Test System is based on a high performance 6 Degrees of Freedom
(DOF) electric motion system with powerful test software to simulate test
tracks and test performance of the turret stabilizer. On the top platform
of the Turret Tester, the user can install an actual turret or a remote
weapon station. It can handle a wide range of payloads up to 24,000 kg
(53,000 lb) and meet specific requirements related to particular excursions,
velocities or accelerations. The Moog Replication software module has
been developed to accurately simulate vehicle movements as recorded on
the test track.
Other
Moog products and innovations on show will include: With many years of defense industry experience, Moog has worked on many projects enabling more accurate turret controls, faster ammunition handling, user friendly interfaces, more efficient power management, critical infrastructure security, functional test research, simulation systems to train drivers, and advanced inertial sensor technology. Pim
van den Dijssel, European Business manager at Moog says: "From requirements
definition, to system and component design, integration, production, test,
simulation, training, deployment and support, Moog is the motion control
partner to engineer with our customers the solutions required to identify
new and better ways of performing." |
