Miniature, High Performance Hydraulic Solutions

The Challenge

For the racing world speed is critical and servovalves play a key role. The main benefits of servovalves in these racing applications are speed and power density. In addition a key success factor to consider is weight reduction. Thus the challenge for Moog was to provide high performance motion control in the smallest package size and at the lowest weight possible.

The Moog Solution

As the brand leader for high performance servovalves, Moog has some of the hottest valves on the market. Our design engineers worked with Formula One teams to develop a unique subminiature hydraulic servovalve …to 350 times per second.
As a partner with teams in motorsports for over 20 years, Moog’s vast experience and knowledge of motion control is invaluable. Moog works closely with teams to design and build new products rapidly, often in a matter of weeks, to make the all important race schedules.
Specially-designed servovalves products are used in Formula One cars in multiple areas such as clutches, differentials, throttles, gear shifts and engine intake valves. In Rally cars Moog products are used for a variety of functions including active suspension, gearboxes, clutches, throttles, differential, dampers, and anti-roll bars.
Moog has designed, developed and supplied miniature hydraulic components and systems to the Motorsport Industry for over 20 years.
