Simtek High-Fidelity Components for FAA & EASA Certified Boeing 737 Training Devices

When you’re building or sustaining a Boeing 737 training device, fidelity isn’t marketing fluff—it’s mission-critical. In professional training environments, crews rely on the simulator for muscle memory, procedural discipline, and high-tempo repetition. That only works when the cockpit hardware is built to perform like the real thing.
At Simtek, we manufacture high-fidelity simulated avionics and cockpit components that support FAA and EASA certified training devices for the Boeing 737. Our focus is simple: deliver hardware that looks right, feels right, integrates cleanly, and holds up to continuous use.
What “High Fidelity” Really Means in a 737 Simulator
A Boeing 737 cockpit is a hands-on environment. Every switch, bezel, indicator, and control interaction matters. “High fidelity” means more than getting the shape close—it means building the correct pilot interface:
True-to-aircraft form, fit, and alignment
Realistic tactile response (detents, throw, force feel, actuation)
Consistent legend and lighting behavior
Durability under high-tempo training operations
Repeatable builds for multi-shipset programs and sustainment
Pilots notice immediately when a cockpit feels “almost right.” We build to remove that gap.
Supporting FAA and (EASA) Certified Training Devices
It’s important to say this clearly: FAA and (EASA) certification applies to the complete training device, not any single part. But the components inside the cockpit must support that certification goal—through realism, reliability, traceability, and consistent performance.
Simtek supports customers pursuing and sustaining FAA and (EASA) certified devices by delivering components with:
Consistent manufacturing processes
Configuration control and repeatability
Build discipline that supports regulated programs
Documentation and part control suitable for long-term sustainment
When certification and customer acceptance are on the line, suppliers can’t be the uncertainty in the system.
Why Simtek for Boeing 737 Components
1) Realism pilots can feel
We build for the human interface—because that’s what training depends on. The goal is confidence in every interaction, every session.
2) Durability that protects uptime
Training centers run devices hard. Our products are designed to withstand repeated use and minimize maintenance churn.
3) Lower total cost of ownership
A cheaper part that fails early—or creates intermittent issues—costs more through downtime and troubleshooting. Simtek focuses on stable performance and long service life.
4) Manufacturing discipline you can scale
Built for New Builds, Upgrades, and Sustainment
Boeing 737 simulators evolve continuously—retrofits, cockpit refreshes, avionics updates, and obsolescence replacements are part of life. Simtek supports:
New simulator builds
Cockpit modernization and refresh programs
Obsolescence replacement
Sustainment spares and repeat production
