Our Mission

Empowering Smarter Aerospace Decisions

AeroNeura's mission is to accelerate aircraft and space-system innovation by making complex testing smarter, faster, and more affordable. We achieve this through advanced control systems, mission analytics, and digital engineering.

Our NEURA-AERO controllers bring transient and real-world mission-cycle testing capabilities to propulsion stands, environmental chambers, actuator rigs, and hardware-in-the-loop benches. With accurate control of thrust, torque, thermal load, pressure, and electrical demand profiles, our software helps existing infrastructure behave like a far more advanced integrated test facility.

The result: engineering teams can run certification-ready validation, endurance, and mission simulation without major hardware replacement, reducing programme costs by more than 45% while achieving 99.7% test-to-test repeatability.

System Design

Modular Architecture

Built on a flexible, modular foundation that integrates seamlessly with your existing aerospace test infrastructure.

Framework Agnostic

Integrates with leading aerospace and industrial test frameworks including NI LabVIEW, dSPACE, Speedgoat, MATLAB/Simulink, and bespoke facility control systems.

Multi-Protocol Communication

Communicates via CAN, ARINC 429, EtherCAT, analogue signals, digital I/O, Modbus, OPC UA, and more. Adapts to existing cells without vendor lock-in.

Failure Redundant

Built-in safety, watchdog, and abort protocols protect test assets, high-value flight hardware, and facility teams from unexpected failures.

Flexible Deployment

Deploy as a stand-alone system with bespoke operator interfaces, or integrate directly into an existing propulsion, avionics, or environmental test cell.

Multi-Controller Sync

Operate multiple controllers in perfect synchronisation for related systems, or independently for parallel rig operations.
