Aviation Drivetrains

The aviation industry of the 21st century faces the new challenge of climate neutral operation. For decades, slow incremental improvements have been applied to highly optimized combustion engines, but in order to meet the pressing goal of climate neutrality aviation disruptive innovation and new drivetrain technologies are necessary.

Proven experience in drivetrain design

ADT has proven experience in developing gears, gearboxes and thermal management systems for future hybrid and fully electric aviation drivetrains in both rotor- and fixed wing aircraft.
