Offered by Astronics PGA, a wholly owned subsidiary of Astronics
Corporation, this product serves emerging lighting trends in
aircraft cabin designs and upgrades. “There is a significant
increase in ambient lighting interest from airlines and aircraft
OEMs, so to service our customers, we’ve taken our existing
ultra-reliable lighting products and re-engineered them to provide
the industry’s smallest bend radius and closest set LEDs for a
flexible, consistent color experience,” explained Fabrice
Berthelot, President of Astronics PGA. “The possibilities for
exciting new cabin lighting designs are immense.”
Nuancia is the first cabin lighting product offering
customizable lengths from 100 millimeter (mm) to 2,500 mm and with
LEDs placed in 50 mm increments, which reduces gaps between lights
for a smooth, continuous color wash.
At only 6 mm thick and with a 50 mm bend radius, Nuancia is the
most flexible product available to illuminate the cabin environment
– ceilings, alcoves, seats, walls, windows, and more. Customers can
install Nuancia in straight or curved applications, via multiple
mounting methods, to highlight the cabin without any hot spots. A
dedicated lighting management system controls the strip lights to
ensure smooth transitions between lighting phases for various
airplane operations, such as takeoff, meal service, or inflight
entertainment time. The system uses red, green, blue, and white
(RGBW) LED technology to deliver the industry’s most comprehensive
set of color choices with options for a range of white lights, from
cool to warm settings.
Astronics will display the new Nuancia lights in Stand 3B30 at
the upcoming Aircraft Interiors Expo, April 2-4, in Hamburg
Germany.
Astronics PGA provides innovative cabin technology solutions
including in-seat motion systems, lighting systems, and cabin
management systems (CMS) for business, VIP, and commercial
aviation. Within commercial aviation, approximately 6,000 seats per
year are equipped with its seat motion and lighting systems on more
than 80 airlines, making Astronics PGA the largest supplier of
these systems for super-first, first, and business class seats. For
