Berwyn, Penn.-based Triumph Group, Inc. announced Tuesday it had won a door actuation contract with Airbus.
The multi-year contract would allow Triumph’s Actuation Products and Services business to provide A220 On Wing Emergency Exit Door (OWEED) control cables to the aviation manufacturer. The contract will be performed at Triumph’s plant in Shelbyville, Ind.
“Building upon our long-term relationship with Airbus and providing support throughout the product lifecycle, this award is a testament to our continued commitment to servicing our valued customers,” said Mike Boland, President of Triumph Actuation Products & Services. “The OWEED cable is just one of the many solutions Triumph provides to Airbus, and we are delighted to further strengthen our relationship with this contract extension.”
On Jan. 19, the company was awarded contracts for the Airbus A330, A320, and A350 aircraft fleets to manufacture ball bearing control cables. Those two-year contracts will continue the work Triumph has been performing for Airbus at its Villeneuve Le Roi, France facility.
“Triumph is a market leader of high precision low friction ball bearing cables, and these contract extensions continue to demonstrate the aerospace market’s need for high-performing products from Triumph,” Boland said. “We appreciate the confidence Airbus has in Triumph to deliver the highest quality products.”
Triumph designs, engineers, manufactures, repairs, and overhauls a wide array of aerospace and defense systems and components, serving the global aviation industry from original equipment manufacturers to military and commercial aircraft operators.
The company’s Actuation Products and Services division is a leader in designing, developing, manufacturing, and supporting complex electro-hydraulic and mechanical systems for the aerospace and defense industry, the company said. The division provides customers around the world with actuators, pumps, motors, reservoirs, control valves, and other mechanical controls for commercial and military aircraft from 10 manufacturing sites across North America and Europe.
