The resurgence of the aerospace industry after the COVID years appears to be ongoing if the response to this year’s Farnborough Airshow is a benchmark to go by. The commercial aerospace industry has a very bright outlook, with revenues set to grow 14% year on year. Yes, there are numerous setbacks in terms of supply chain challenges, But the International Air Transport Association (IATA) has estimated that the global airline industry generated $30.5 billion in net income this year. Similarly, the space industry is also enjoying a renaissance. A report by the World Economic Forum expects the sector to be worth $1.8 trillion by 2035 with satellite and rocket-enabled technologies becoming increasingly prevalent.
With this as a backdrop, the Farnborough Air Show is expected to be busier than ever this year. It is reporting record-breaking demand for exhibition space as it reflects the positivity in the aerospace sector – a true sign that it is returning to the boom days pre-pandemic.
Olsen Actuators and Drives will be exhibiting at Farnborough again this year. Serving both the space and aerospace industries, our products are pivotal components that promote movement in both spacecraft and aircraft. We’ve had an exciting year of growth so far and we are looking forward to supporting our customers in both industries.
With the NewSpace sector driving the market for readily available, space-rated components, we’re delivering the high quality, high performance and low risk products that are sought after by spacecraft and launch vehicle manufacturers. This combined with systems engineering solutions and fast prototypes allow proof of concepts to be demonstrated to the market allows funding milestones and future easy drop-in space rated versions.
The aero market, particularly the eVTOL and heavy drone market, continues to be a key sector for Olsen and we have wide experience in the sector providing solutions for applications as varied as certified primary flight control actuators and controllers, 6DOF flight simulation motion platform solutions combined with static, dynamic and endurance testing rigs.
