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.
領先的電動飛行器製造商和區域型空中移動（RAM）先驅Lilium N.V.（納斯達克：LILM）已成功完成其電噴氣推進裝置的首組測試。電動發動機首次在推進裝置的測試臺上達到最大推力，此舉是實現零排放飛行的重要里程碑，也是Lilium Jet飛行安全驗證的重要步驟。所進行的測試已表明預期的性能和可靠性水平，加強了Lilium對其電動噴氣推進系統成熟度的信懇智能。
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的推進裝置測試分爲兩個發動機，安裝在一個推進架上，是在位於慕尼黑附近Lilium總部內的專用推進裝置測試臺上進行的。該測試臺是爲了評估Lilium噴氣技術的空氣動力學和電氣表現而設計的。
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.
推進裝置的成功首次測試是在與Lilium的供應商團隊Denso和Honeywell（e-motor）、Aeronamic（壓縮機風扇）和SKF（電動機軸承）進行廣泛的引擎測試和協作開發之後進行的。
