Moog’s Fluids Controls Group leads multi-disciplinary teams to develop solutions for complex technical applications in the rapidly growing Space Sector. The group has been awarded several cryogenic valves to be used in rocket applications. In addition, there are several new opportunities for fluid control devices in support of defense and space exploration . These exciting development projects expand Moog’s platform of fluid control devices to support launch and exploration vehicles.
Current projects at Moog include the following types of hardware development: cryogenic ball valves, solenoid valves, bi-prop injector valves, and cold gas thrusters.
