Curtiss-Wright Corporation has a long history with its roots dating back to the Wright brothers' first flight in 1903. We have continued on the path that they began as a company, which was centered upon engineering, and have applied that expertise to a number of markets. Our engineering capabilities, in addition to our ability to provide metal treatment services and manufacture products within high tolerances, has resulted in our ability to position ourselves successfully within niche markets where we can earn what we consider to be attractive profit margins. We have taken these strengths to several markets in which we have established three business segments: Metal Treatment and Motion Control.


Our Metal Treatment business is built around our leadership in providing shot-peening services through a network of regional facilities located throughout North America and Europe. Shot-peening is a process applied to component parts, which improves resistance to stress corrosion and increases the life of the part. Our facilities also provide shot-peen forming which is applied to wing skins to create the aerodynamic curvature in the wing that improves its efficiency. In addition to the services mentioned above, we also provide heat treating services. Heat treating is a thermal processing operation which enhances the mechanical properties, metallurgical structure and/or residual stress state of metal components. We have taken our technological knowledge and metallurgical capabilities to find solutions to solve our customer's problems. Our ability to do this is demonstrated by the fact that we have an active customer base of over 5,000 and service a number of industries.


Our Motion Control business segment designs, engineers and manufactures actuation components and systems used for leading and trailing edges wing flaps on commercial and military aircraft; systems for opening and closing weapons bay doors on fighter aircraft, suspension systems and turret stabilizing and aiming systems for armored vehicles and leveling systems for railroad car applications. Another important part of this business segment is our maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) operation for aerospace components.
