Space and defense
Moog has technologies for satellites and space vehicles in addition to various aspects of defense such as missiles, weapons / stores management, turreted weapon systems, naval technologies along with security and surveillance systems. One weapons system is the Reconfigurable Integrated-weapons Platform (RIwP) which is to form part of the Stryker vehicle sold by General Dynamics Land Systems to the US Army.[15]
For satellites, Moog develops chemical and electric propulsion systems and space flight motion controls. Various launch vehicles and missiles use Moog's steering and propulsion controls, and the International Space Station uses its couplings, valves and actuators.
Moog has both electro-hydraulic and electromechanical systems as part of its solutions.
In 2012, Moog acquired the In-Space Propulsion (ISP) business of American Pacific Corporation (AMPAC), which was formerly part of Atlantic Research Corporation (ARC). Products include the LEROS family of liquid-propellant thrusters, acquired by ARC in 1998 and developed in the 1990s by Royal Ordnance (later part of British Aerospace) in the United Kingdom; Moog operated a manufacturing facility at Westcott, Buckinghamshire on the former Royal Ordnance site, until 2017 when the ISP business was acquired by Nammo.
Industrial
Moog provides industrial services. For the plastics and machinery market Moog designs, manufactures and integrates systems for all axes of injection and blow molding machines using both hydraulic and electric technology. In the power generation turbine market, Moog designs, manufactures and integrates control assemblies for fuel, steam and variable geometry control applications that include wind turbines. Metal forming markets use Moog designed and manufactured systems that provide control of position, velocity, force and other parameters. Heavy industry uses Moog's electrical and hydraulic servovalves for steel and aluminum mill equipment. For the material test markets, Moog supplies controls for automotive, structural and fatigue testing. The company's hydraulic and electromechanical motion simulation bases are used for the flight simulation and training markets. Other markets include material handling and testing, motorsport (including F1), carpet tufting, paper and lumber mills.
Components
Moog markets medical equipment components. As a result of the acquisition of the Power and Data Technologies Group of the Kaydon Corporation in July 2005, Moog entered into the market of marine applications. Components has several other product lines that include the design and manufacture of electromechanical actuators, fiber optic modems, avionic instrumentation, optical switches and resolvers.
In 2019, Moog introduced a new project that intends to use a unique model based on block-chain and 3D printer to produce airplane parts, on demand.[19]
Medical devices
Medical devices is Moog's newest segment, formed as a result of the acquisition of Curlin Medical, McKinley Medical, and Zevex International in 2006. Moog's primary products are electronic ambulatory infusion pumps and ambulatory enteral feeding pumps along with the necessary administration sets as well as disposable infusion pumps. Applications of these products include controlled delivery of fluids to the body, nutrition, post-operative pain management, regional anesthesia, chemotherapy and antibiotics. On January 23, 2009 Moog acquired the stock of Ethox International for $15.2 million in cash. Ethox is a medical products manufacturer and service provider based in Buffalo, New York.
On July 1, 2013, Moog announced the sale of its Buffalo operations of Ethox Medical to Dempsey Ventures. Annual sales from this division were approximately $12 million, with 88 full-time employees. Dempsey Ventures, based in Grand Rapids, Michigan, is a private equity firm focused on healthcare products. Its portfolio of companies in the anesthesia/respiratory space includes SunMed, Bay Medical and Ventlab. The Company also announced that it has engaged RBC Capital Markets LLC to assist with the strategic assessment of the remainder of its Medical Devices segment, including the possibility of divesting the entire segment.[20]
In 2016 the remainder of Moog's medical devices segment was integrated into the components group.
Navigation aids
Moog Navigation and Surveillance Systems (NaSS) was established in 1955 and registered its first Tactical Air Navigation (TACAN) patents in 1962. That was the beginning of a long TACAN history. Since that time, Moog has designed and manufactured TACAN systems for use by militaries around the world including systems for fixed site, shipboard, mobile and man portable applications.
In 2009, Moog added engineering expertise as well as Distance Measuring Equipment (DME) and Direction Finding (DF) products through the acquisition of Fernau Avionics, Ltd.
In 2021, Moog sold the complete Navigation Aids (Navaids) business to Thales Group. At that moment the Navaids business represented less than 1% of Moog Inc.’s annual sales.[21]
