Introduction
• Honeywell Aerospace designs and manufactures numerous products and services for the
commercial and military aircraft industry
• Honeywell contacts initiating the project are Michael McCollum, the Chief Engineer of
Pneumatic Controls Technology and Mitchell Thune, a recent NAU graduate who is
working with Michael McCollum on this project
• The clients want to replace their electromagnetic solenoid with a magnetostrictive
material, Terfenol-D, in the pneumatic control systems used on commercial airliners
• Terfenol-D is a magnetic shape memory alloy that elongates when an external magnetic
field is applied

Conclusions
• Honeywell International Inc. tasked the team with designing and prototyping an
actuator that utilizes Terfenol-D, a magnetic shape memory alloy that elongates
in response to the application of a magnetic field
• Modifications have been made to the original prototype design in order to
resolve issues that arose before construction and account for stresses and
dimension restrictions
• An actuator that utilizes a magnetostrictive material, Terfenol-D has been
constructed. The actuator creates a minute stroke using a magnetic field
