Moog Controls
of Ashchurch, Tewkesbury
British arm of a US company.
1951 Bill Moog, Art Moog, and Lou Geyer pooled $3,000 and opened Moog Valve. They had limited resources, a primitive work facility in the corner of a dirt-floored airplane hangar, only a couple of potential customers, and one great product. Problem solving depended on their two resources: persistence and creativity.
1958 Dowty took a licence from Moog Valve Co Inc of New York for the manufacture of their servo-valves[1]
1962 Dowty Moog valves were supplied to the Admiralty for electro-hydraulic vibrators and fatigue testing machines[2]
