Power transmissions

HispanoSuiza, the Safran group specialist in power transmission and management, offers innovative power transmission solutions for both commercial and military engines.

The power transmission is a mechanical assembly comprising gears and shafts that converts part of the energy produced by the engine into power used to drive various engine accessories and aircraft systems. Hispano-Suiza has developed comprehensive expertise in this area, ranging from accessory gearboxes on business aircraft to complete power transmissions on large commercial turbofans, as well as military transport and combat aircraft, plus turboshaft engines for helicopters.
