Instrumentation and Sensor Products
for Critical MIL-SPEC Applications.
 

helicopterACT develops and produces sensors and signal conditioning products for military and high-end industrial applications. Our product offering includes accelerometers, load cells, torque cells, signal conditioning amplifiers and power amplifiers. Capabilities range from low noise analog designs to full digital processing and firmware designs. Our products regularly operate in environments requiring certification to MIL-STD-810, MIL-STD-461/462, MIL-STD-704 and RTCA/DO-160.

ACT can rapidly develop your new products through our vertically integrated prototype department and move them quickly into volume production. The company operates an ISO-9001 compliant facility with ANSI/J-STD-001 and MIL-HDBK-454 workmanship standards.

The company has been involved in military and high-end industrial products for over 25 years and has all of the necessary equipment for the design, manufacturing and testing of high performance sensors and signal conditioning systems. We welcome your interest and look forward to helping you solve your sensing needs.


Sensor Products

planeProven building block designs for accelerometers, load cells, torque cells, angular rate and magnetic field are used as cores for your custom application. Sensor applications include inertial reference, autopilot, autonomous guidance, vibration monitoring, image stabilization, active load control, tension monitoring and engine monitoring. Sensors commonly have EMI filters, internal power supplies, surge protection, integral amplifiers, filters, temperature compensation and signal conditioning. Output signals can be analog voltages, current loops or digital buses. An optional microcontroller with firmware can be incorporated to improve sensor accuracy and temperature stability and can incorporate auto-calibration, functional test, signal processing and digital bus interfaces. Core competencies include:

  • Piezoelectric accelerometers
  • Capacitive accelerometers
  • Strain gage load / force sensing
  • Strain gage torque sensing
  • Angular rate
  • Magnetic field

Signal Conditioning and Amplifier Products

tankSignal conditioners are a vital part of any high reliability sensor measurement providing power isolation, signal conditioning, multiple sensor data fusion, sensor processing and decision making. Proven building block designs for operating accelerometers, load cells, LVDTs, thermocouples, RTDs, tachometers, phase measurement, RMS-to-DC conversion and frequency-to-voltage are used as cores for your custom application. Signal conditioners commonly have EMI filters, isolated power supplies (AC or DC), surge protection, integral amplifiers, filters and temperature compensation. Output signals can be analog voltages, current loops or digital buses. An optional microcontroller with firmware can be incorporated to improve accuracy and temperature stability and can incorporate auto-calibration, functional test, processing and digital bus interfaces. Core competencies include:

  • Piezoelectric accelerometers
  • Capacitive accelerometers
  • Angular rate
  • Magnetic field
  • Strain gage based transducers
  • LVDT / RVDT
  • True RMS-to-DC
  • Thermocouple
  • RTD
  • Frequency-to-Voltage
  • Power amplifier
