Aeronautics

For over half a century, Socitec has been supporting specialised companies in the aeronautical sector to meet the specific needs of this field in terms of protection against shocks and vibrations

To guard against various sources of vibration during flight, Socitec designs decoupling and anti-vibration solutions aimed at ensuring the continuous operation of onboard electronic equipment and preserving its long-term durability.
We also develop stabilisation systems for optronic devices and other payloads, isolating them from disruptive vibrations. All of these shock and vibration dampening systems are engineered to withstand the most extreme conditions and are designed with an unlimited service life, allowing them to perform their function over the long term.

The transport of certain fragile or complex structural and mechanical components requires methodical protection from vibrations caused by rolling, pitching, or securing, in order to avoid any damage during transit.
In addition to the solutions we develop for this purpose, we can also organise and carry out compliance checks on the installation and perform vibration measurements throughout the journey.
We offer a range of shock and vibration recorders, associated calculations and consultancy, as well as in-transit monitoring of measurements by our team of engineers.

The protection of aeronautical equipment begins on the ground. To securely hold engines or other components during inspection or maintenance, we equip maintenance trolleys and stands with our shock and vibration isolation systems. These systems protect against drops or mishandling that could compromise their integrity and lead to costly repairs.
