SABCA TECHNOLOGIES

SABCA Technologies is the new subsidiary of SABCA, the Belgian flagship of the aerospace industry, set up at the end of the year 2022 and located Louvain-la-Neuve.

SABCA Technologies is dedicated to the design and the manufacturing of actuation systems for the future, targeting aerospace, drones and defense applications making use of New Space approaches.

SABCA technologies has signed a research and development partnership with the UC Louvain,  aiming to strengthen its European leadership in the design and manufacture of electro-mechanical actuation system (including control and power electronics as well as power supply), a critical sub-system used on the launcher thrust vector control as well as on aviation flight control.

SABCA and its subsidiary SABCA Technologies are the European leader and source of supply for the launcher thrust vector actuation systems are preparing an innovative and disruptive generation of products that break with the hydraulic actuation systems produced by SABCA for the F16 program 40 years ago. 

Created in 1920, the Sabca group is a major Belgian player in the aeronautics, aerospace and defense industries. Its high-tech component design and manufacturing activities operate in the aviation, space and, more recently, industrial drone markets (surveillance and autonomous hospital-to-hospital transport). In Belgium, the company is located in Lummen (composite structures), in Brussels (metallic aerostructures) and in Louvain-la-Neuve (SABCA Technologies). It is part of the Orizio Group since 2020, along side with Sabena Engineering.
