Phase I

Contract Number: ----------
Start Date: ----    Completed: ----
Phase I year
2005
Phase I Amount
$119,356
Morgan Research Corporation has developed a compact, lightweight, MEMS based safe and arming device concept for low-G launch, low spin rate munitions such as the 2.75 rocket. The designs include concepts for a MEMS rotation sensor, rotationally driven arming mechanism, and initial setback detector for low-G operations. This Phase I effort will focus on the development of these designs. New methods for safe and arming small munitions will be demonstrated for the first time along with techniques for automatic disarming of live, unexploded ordnance

Phase II

Contract Number: ----------
Start Date: ----    Completed: ----
Phase II year
2006
Phase II Amount
$729,611
Morgan Research Corp. has developed a compact, lightweight, MEMS based safe and arming device concept for low-G launch, low spin rate munitions such as the 2.75 rocket. The designs include concepts for a MEMS rotation sensor, rotationally driven arming mechanism, and initial set-back detector for low-G operations that can be fabricated at the wafer level. This Phase II effort will focus on the development and integration of these designs into a fuze architecture that meets Mil. Std. 1316E and STANAG 4187 safety requirements. New methods for safe and arming small munitions will be demonstrated for the first time along with techniques for automatic disarming of live, unexploded ordnance.
