Rotatable striker mass ignites pyrotechnic material via inertial force, reducing thermal battery volume while maintaining safety.
A torsion spring inertia igniter uses a pre-loaded striker to initiate pyrotechnic materials upon detecting all-fire conditions.
Electronic discharge machining replaces expensive MEMS processes to manufacture high-reliability, low-cost arming sliders with adjustable parameters.
A cutting charge severs the explosive shell to couple a pressure wave into the active mass, triggering deflagrative conversion.
A polymeric subsonic cartridge uses a propellant insert to reduce internal volume, resolving inconsistent burn caused by empty space.
Tilting locking fingers eliminate flyweight friction during storage, ensuring reliable arming delay in medium-caliber projectiles.
