Every Simtek product is designed to match the tactile feel, actuation force, detents, and feedback of OEM avionics. That means:

  • Switches that click with the same resistance and confidence

  • Panels that feel solid, not hollow

  • Controls that respond exactly as the pilot expects


This isn’t cosmetic. It’s muscle memory training—and it matters. When pilots train on Simtek hardware, they’re not learning a simulation. They’re reinforcing real-world behaviors that carry directly into the cockpit.


Built for Conditions OEM Hardware Was Never Meant to Survive

Here’s the reality most people overlook:

Flight-worthy avionics are not designed for constant use. They’re designed for reliability in actual flight—not repetition.


Take the fire handle switch in a Boeing 737.

In the real aircraft:

  • It’s designed to be pulled once in an emergency

  • Ideally, it’s never used at all


Now compare that to a training environment:

  • That same control may be activated hundreds or thousands of times per month


That’s where Simtek is different.


Engineered for Abuse—Because Training Demands It

At Simtek, we go beyond OEM replication. We engineer for durability under extreme, repetitive use.


Our hardware is built to:

  • Withstand continuous cycling

  • Maintain consistent tactile feedback over time

  • Resist wear in 24/7 training environments

  • Deliver repeatable performance day after day


In short: We design for how simulators are actually used—not how aircraft are ideally operated.


Bulletproof Reliability = Better Training Outcomes

When hardware fails, training stops.When controls feel inconsistent, confidence drops. When systems degrade, realism suffers.


That’s why Simtek products are built with one goal:

Bulletproof reliability that supports uninterrupted, high-quality training.

Because in simulation, every repetition matters. Every switch throw. Every knob turn. Every scenario.


The Simtek Difference

  • OEM-accurate tactile fidelity

  • Ruggedized for continuous use

  • Engineered for long service life

  • Trusted in demanding training environments worldwide


We don’t just build simulated avionics.We build hardware that stands up to the reality of training—day in, day out.
