Description
The aim of this program will be to pivot RISE™ Cylinder to military use. This technology is currently being deployed in class-8 truck trailers. It replaces classic hydraulic systems and their associated drawbacks, which include high system complexity, harmful chemicals leaks, limited hose lifetimes, limited positional accuracy, and high system weight. Moreover, RISE innovation is power-source agnostic. It will drastically reduce sustainment costs while increasing uptime within mission-critical machinery. It extends operating endurance regardless of the platform used –and support the Air Force’s readiness to fly, fight and win.
