No Statement of Work? That’s Fine. All We Need Is a Picture.
Simtek - From Photo to Simulated Hardware You want a quote… but you don’t have a clean Statement of Work (SOW) , full drawings, or a complete bill of materials. At Simtek , that doesn’t stop the conversation. In fact, we’ve built our process around a reality most primes and integrators deal with every day: programs move fast, documentation lags behind, and legacy configurations don’t always come with neat engineering packages. Our approach: No SOW? No problem. Send a picture


Product Testing That Builds Confidence: Vibration, Burn-In, and Thermal Testing
Simtek Simulated MCDU - 737 In simulated avionics, performance isn’t proven when a unit powers on—it’s proven after repeated use, long hours, and real-world handling. That’s why strong product testing isn’t optional. It’s how you protect training uptime, reduce maintenance surprises, and ensure every delivered unit behaves the way it should. At Simtek, we believe the best products are the ones that keep working—consistently—after the stresses of production, shipping, installa

From tight visual uniformity to rigorous specification compliance, our approach is built around one thing: getting the details right, every time. Manufactured to NVIS Requirements—


Source Inspections Welcome: How Simtek Supports Customer Confidence Before Delivery
When you’re buying simulated avionics and cockpit hardware, you’re not just purchasing a part—you’re trusting a supplier to deliver something that will be installed, integrated, and used repeatedly in a training environment where uptime matters. That’s why Simtek welcomes customers to visit our facility for source inspections of final products . We see it as a smart, proactive step that builds confidence, reduces risk, and helps programs stay on schedule. Why On-Site Source I


Why Primes Choose Simtek for 737 Simulator Avionics
Southwest Airlines - 737 When a prime contractor is building or upgrading a 737 full-flight simulator , the avionics inside the cockpit aren’t just “parts.” They’re training-critical components that must survive relentless use, stay consistent across devices, and be supportable for years—often decades. At Simtek , we’ve earned a reputation as the team primes call when they need 737 simulator avionics that hold up in the real world of flight training —where switches get cycled
