Woodward offers a growing line of air valves

Woodward offers a growing line of air valves that, when combined with system knowledge,

enable us to reduce cost and improve reliability. Air valves are part of a broader actuation

system which manages performance of the turbine or engine.

Features and Functionality

Woodward is a world leader in the design and manufacture of air valves and air metering

technologies across the turbine engine environment. Canted shaft designs leverage decades

of experience with reliable operation in harsh environments, including those in extreme

high temp (1400°F) and severe exhaust contamination.

Furthermore, decades of industry leading innovations in turbine engine actuation,

position sensing and servo systems provide for highly reliable and cost-effective solutions.

Key Product Variants Include

• Innovative flow body designs capable of meeting Class IV “bubble tight” sealing per

ANSI/FCI 70-2 over life in extreme environments (equates to 0.01% of rated flow).

Key Features

• A CFD led systems approach to yield significant system level cost and weight savings

without violating the most stringient envelope constraints.

• Leverage of industry leading actuator and servovalve innovations that reduce LRU

and System costs while simultaneously improving reliability.
