RWS is exploring and driving solutions for the rapid and safe separation of vehicle structures in the event of targeted hostile acts or catastrophic accidents, eliminating the inefficiencies of conventional emergency and release mechanisms. This enables shorter evacuation times, reduced vehicle weight, and increased survivability through modular pyrotechnic elements.
Armor in motion – when every second counts
At the core of RWS is the mastery of high-precision energetic initiation, including primers, cartridges, and pyrotechnic elements that reliably trigger under exacting conditions. Building on this foundation, Armor in motion represents our next frontier: providing controlled separation and emergency exit solutions for armored, protected, and specialized vehicles.
In high-stakes environments, such as military convoys under threat or VIP transportation under attack, safely and reliably disengaging structural elements, such as panels, hatches, hinges, and modular attachments, is as crucial as escaping the zone of danger. Our solutions targeted at armor in motion address the issue of rapid vehicle evacuation by applying our technological expertise in energetic force generation to exits and structural disintegration.
We are setting new standards in occupant protection. With innovative separation systems, we help significantly improve survivability and evacuability in critical situations:
