Excellence in Aerospace Solenoid Manufacturing
If you’re seeking qualified aerospace solenoid valve manufacturers, look to NMG Aerospace for quality engineering, design, and function. We manufacture aerospace solenoid valves that can withstand numerous applications and can endure extreme temperatures, high and low operation, and high levels of vibration. We are constantly improving our aerospace solenoid components by reducing weight and increasing torque for various customer requirements.
What Is a Solenoid Valve?
What exactly is the function of aerospace solenoid components? An aerospace solenoid valve regulates either the opening or closing of an orifice in a valve that allows or prevents flow. Essentially, aerospace solenoid components control air and fluid flow by monitoring the speed and level of substance that passes through. In the context of aircraft solenoid valves, this could mean applications such as fuel monitoring, environmental control, and engine control. In each of these applications, the aerospace solenoid components must perform accurately as soon as they are called upon. For that reason, aerospace solenoid valves need to be built with accuracy in order to provide proper measurement, regulation, and performance.
In particular, it is essential to make sure the solenoid valve will be compatible with the fluids with which it will be coming in contact. The plugnut, core, springs, shading ring, and any other components that will be exposed to the fluid need to be able to withstand whatever fluid they will be exposed to so there is no risk of breakdown.
The valve body itself must also be compatible with the fluid. Brass, stainless steel, aluminum, and plastic are often the materials of choice for solenoid valves for that reason.
The main components of a solenoid valve are:
For the solenoid subassembly:
-
- Retaining clip (a.k.a. coil clip)
- Solenoid coil (with magnetic return path)
- Core tube (a.k.a. armature tube, plunger tube, solenoid valve tube, sleeve, guide assembly)
- Plugnut (a.k.a. fixed core)
- Shading coil (a.k.a. shading ring)
- Core spring (a.k.a. counter spring)
- Core (a.k.a. plunger, armature)
- Core tube–bonnet seal
- Bonnet (a.k.a. cover)
- Bonnet–diaphragm–body seal
- Hanger spring
- Backup washer
- Diaphragm
- Bleed hole
- Disk
- Valve body
- Seat
Comparing Aerospace Solenoid Valve Manufacturers
Without a doubt, any aerospace application requires durable components and attention to detail. For this reason, you will need to set aside some time for research to look for a reliable aerospace solenoid manufacturer.
Take the time to get on the same page with your colleagues regarding both project goals and fabrication requirements. Are you looking for CNC machining capabilities? How complex are your current designs and what is your budget?
It can often be helpful to consult online reviews to gauge a company’s timeliness and customer service practices, for example. Look for reviews from other professionals in your specific field to get a general idea of a team’s compatibility with your niche of the aerospace industry and your goals. However, it is important to only consider online reviews in combination with other factors, as the circumstances of any project can vary considerably and online reviews don’t always give you the full picture.
