Lilium Reaches Key Step Towards Zero Emission Flight With Propulsion Unit Testing
Lilium N.V. (NASDAQ:LILM), a leading electric aircraft manufacturer and pioneer in Regional Air Mobility (RAM), has successfully completed the first series of tests of its electric jet propulsion unit. For the first time, the electric engines were taken up to maximum thrust on the propulsion unit test bench, representing a landmark achievement on the journey to zero operating emissions flight and an important step towards verifying safety of flight of the Lilium Jet. The tests performed have demonstrated the expected level of performance and reliability, bolstering Lilium's confidence in the maturity of its electric jet propulsion system.
领先的电动飞行器制造商和区域型空中移动（RAM）先驱Lilium N.V.（纳斯达克：LILM）已成功完成其电喷气推进装置的首组测试。电动发动机首次在推进装置的测试台上达到最大推力，此举是实现零排放飞行的重要里程碑，也是Lilium Jet飞行安全验证的重要步骤。所进行的测试已表明预期的性能和可靠性水平，加强了Lilium对其电动喷气推进系统成熟度的信恳智能。
Testing of the propulsion unit, comprising two engines within a propulsion mounting system, was carried out at Lilium's dedicated propulsion unit test bed, located at Lilium's headquarters near Munich. The test bed has been designed for aerodynamic and electrical performance evaluation of Lilium's jet technology.
Lilium的推进装置测试分为两个发动机，安装在一个推进架上，是在位于慕尼黑附近Lilium总部内的专用推进装置测试台上进行的。该测试台是为了评估Lilium喷气技术的空气动力学和电气表现而设计的。
The successful first test of the propulsion unit follows comprehensive testing of the engine, developed and built in collaboration with Lilium's team of suppliers, including Denso and Honeywell for the e-motor, Aeronamic for the compressor fan, and SKF for the electric motor bearings.
推进装置的成功首次测试是在与Lilium的供应商团队Denso和Honeywell（e-motor）、Aeronamic（压缩机风扇）和SKF（电动机轴承）进行广泛的引擎测试和协作开发之后进行的。
