Success Story - Project XM30

Client: American Rheinmetall Vehicles
Type: Race Way Bearing

Overview

This project is a flagship project for the OEM and represents a continuation of the Lynx project for the IBO. It is again an MSSA. The overall system is intended for the American market and therefore has a much larger project volume.

Development

Following a recommendation, IBO was given the opportunity to participate as a development and production partner. This project was characterised by significantly more complex contractual arrangements and requirements for project transparency between European and American companies. Our knowledge of the overall system also helped the customer with the design of all components.

Result

IBO is part of a flagship project of the US defence industry.

Project Skyranger 30

Defense

The changed conditions in the area of operations require a so-called close and short-range protection system to defend against drones and protect troop movements. Such a system must combine high forces with maximum precision.

Project Aviation Antenna

Aviation

Contemporary travel means experiencing internet reception at 16 km above sea level. This system requires extremely precise azimuth and elevation positioning. The special feature is the combination of installation space and weight restrictions with special environmental requirements during take-off, flight and landing.

Project RCH155 - FLW 100

Defense

Experience from the war in Ukraine has shown that artillery is an essential capability. We have worked on the development of the most modern artillery system, which is the first gun capable of firing on the move.

Project Lynx

Defense

One component of the Main Sensory Slaved Armament (MSSA) is the stabilized electronic optical sensor system (SEOS). The associated bearings are characterized by high rigidity and accuracy between clockwise and counterclockwise rotation. Because at a firing range of several kilometers, every thousandth of a degree of deviation is crucial.
