GMS Corporation is partnered with Collins Aerospace to provide a full complement of sensors and systems for defense and space applications, including all US origin fighter and rotary-wing aircraft as well as Space Launch System (SLS) and the RL10 engine for the Orion. This includes surface temperature sensors, immersion temperature sensors, level sensors, and the items listed below.
Air data sensors
GMS provides products for pneumatic measurements of air data parameters. These include pitot probes, pitot-static probes, multi-function probes with flow angle measurement, various flight test products, and SmartProbe® air data systems.
Blade Monitoring
Blade Indicator Monitoring System (BIMS) for helicopters is a technology that detects and monitors the condition of rotor blades, particularly for signs of cracking or damage. This system aims to alert operators to potential issues before catastrophic failures occur, enabling proactive replacement of blades and minimizing downtime.
Fire Detection and Suppression
Kidde Technologies Inc., a part of Collins Aerospace, is a leader in the development, testing & manufacturing of high speed, optical explosion/fire sensing & suppression systems. Components include sensors, panels, controllers, fast discharge valves, battery backup, and transportable repair/refill stations.
Fluid Flow Restrictors
Aerospace fluid flow restrictors are precision-engineered components used to control the flow of gases or fluids in critical aerospace applications. These restrictors are designed to provide accurate, precise flow rates, prevent clogging, and ensure laminar flow, making them ideal for environments where accuracy is paramount.
Fuel Management
GMS provides spares, repairs, and integration of advanced fuel measurement and management systems for nearly every type of aircraft and space vehicle – from helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft to business jets and wide-body transports.
Fuel Tanks
GMS Corporation is partnered with PCX Aerosystems to provide specialized precision manufacturing of large-scale assemblies and components. Lightweight fuel tanks and pressurized vessels demonstrate expertise in the filament winding manufacturing process.
Gauges
GMS Corporation is partnered with Ontic Engineering and other leading manufacturers to provide gauges with operating accuracy over a range of zero to 15,000 PSI.
HUMS
GMS Corporation is partnered with Collins Aerospace to provide Vehicle Health Monitoring Systems including HUMS which decrease downtime and maintenance costs while increasing flight safety, reliability, and fleet efficiency.
Ice Detectors
GMS Corporation is partnered with Collins Aerospace to provide flexible, robust designs to detect ice in a wide range of icing environments – not only for aircraft, but also for ground-based applications such as wind turbines and airport weather stations.
Indicators
GMS Corporation is partnered with Ontic Engineering and other leading manufactures to provide legacy aircraft instrumentation gauges for all manner of flight parameter monitoring.
Liquid Quantity Transmitters
GMS Corporation provides Simmonds Precision Products transmitters designed as aircraft fuel gauging system components for internal, center line, conformal, wing, and external drop tanks.
Pitot Tubes
GMS Corporation provides Rosemount Aerospace pitot tubes designed for measuring fluid flow velocity and airspeed.
Transducers
GMS Corporation provides Collins Aerospace and Curtiss-Wright transducers for all military aircraft applications.
Transmitters
GMS Corporation provides transmitters from leading manufacturers such as Collins Aerospace, Curtiss-Wright, and Phaostron for all military aircraft applications.
