About Space Age Control
SpaceAge Control, Inc. was established in 1968 to design, develop, and
manufacture pilot protection devices in support of space-based and high-performance test aircraft programs. In 1970, the company was awarded a NASA contract to produce precision, small-format position transducers for aircraft flight control testing. The successful completion of this contract led to the development and production of a complete line of position transducers.
Through the 1970’s and 1980’s, virtually all U.S., Canadian, and European aerospace companies used the company’s position
transducers in their research, development, and test activities. Often, these products were designed and
manufactured to custom specifications. As a result of these efforts, SpaceAge Control's quality system met MIL-Q-9858A and has since been modified to be compliant with the ISO 9001 quality standard.
In 1989, a single auto racing team began using these position transducers to
monitor throttle movement and suspension travel. This use resulted in the adoption of the products in a broad range of auto test and measurement projects including anthropomorphic dummy instrumentation, impact testing, and control verification. SpaceAge Control has also leveraged its electro-mechanical core technologies to flight test air data products.
Today, SpaceAge Control products benefit over 900 customers in 20 industries
and over 40 countries. Five of the world’s seven largest auto manufacturing companies and the world’s seven largest aircraft/aerospace companies make extensive use of SpaceAge Control, Inc. products.
As we continue our growth, we have recently obtained ISO 9001 compliance, developed a standalone CNC machining facility,
implemented a comprehensive ERP (enterprise resource planning) system, upgraded our product design and testing capabilities.
