Markets Served
Our markets, though varied, all contain one common thread - a need for superior
mechanical, hydraulic, and electric precision positioning devices.
Aircraft
Everyone who travels by air uses PLP products. We created the original hydraulic
seat back recliner, known as the Hydrolok. Nearly every airline worldwide
specifies PLP Hydroloks and controls when ordering seats. Our aircraft product
line ranges from simple mechanical controls to sophisticated computer controlled
electric actuators known as the Electronic Comfort Control System. From cargo
doors to overhead storage bins, from the cockpit to crew rest modules, PLP
mechanical and hydraulic locks help keep the aircraft flying.
Office Equipment
PLP products provide recline, seat tilt, fore and aft tracking, arm rest
adjustment, and ergonomic design adjustment for executive and task chairs; plus
adjustable devices for work surfaces, computer keyboards and table heights.
Medical/Sports
PLP products are ideal for wheelchairs where recline and tilt-in-space
adjustments are required, as well as, dental chairs and
orthopedic/chiropractic/therapy tables needing many adjustable surfaces.
Treadmills, weight machines, rowers, steppers, can all use PLP mechanical locks
to change the setup to accommodate a wide variety of people and workout
routines.
Industrial
PLP products can be used on machine and process applications where adjustments
are required for set-up, changeovers and maintenance procedures.
