Liebherr-Aerospace’s cockpit static inverter will replace the current version in Airbus A320 and A330 family aircraft. It offers a more reliable, lightweight, fully digital solution and is based on wide band-gap technology with enhanced connection functions.
Two Liebherr companies have developed the cockpit static inverter: Liebherr-Elektronik GmbH, based in Lindau, Germany, and Liebherr’s center of excellence for electronics responsible for all activities regarding the hardware, including production; and Liebherr-Aerospace Toulouse SAS, Liebherr’s center of excellence for air management systems in Toulouse, France, which provides the inverter’s software. Both companies have experience in power electronics and joined forces to offer Airbus the latest technology.
“Airbus and Liebherr have been cooperating since the very beginnings of Airbus. Every civil Airbus aircraft model flies with Liebherr technology on board. Now, we are very happy to add stand-alone power electronics to our already broad systems and components portfolio, and we are looking forward to further expanding our collaboration with Airbus in Power-on-Board technologies”, explains Francis Carla, Managing Director and Chief Technology Officer, Liebherr-Aerospace & Transportation SAS.
