Aircraft Onboard Avionics and Electronic Systems

Shock and vibration expertise and solutions for sensitive equipment

In flight, onboard equipment is exposed to significant risks due to vibrations, shocks, and dynamic loads generated by engines, turbulence, rapid maneuvers and landing impacts.

SOCITEC offers decoupling solutions that protect critical systems, ensuring reliable operation and consistent performance throughout the aircraft’s service life.

All shock and vibration isolation devices are designed to withstand the most extreme conditions, with an unlimited lifespan that enables them to perform their role over the long term.

Aircraft generate a complex vibration environment that combines engine and rotor harmonics, aerodynamic buffeting and transient shocks from turbulence, landing and rapid maneuvers.

Onboard electronics are vulnerable to this in two ways: immediate signal degradation and tracking errors during flight, and cumulative fatigue of solder joints, connectors and circuit boards over thousands of flight hours.

Because avionics and mission-critical equipment must deliver reliable performance throughout an aircraft’s service life, isolation has to deliver both instantaneous stability and fatigue-free durability across the full temperature and altitude envelope.
