Prototyping & Mockups
Using RCO’s suite of capabilities we are able to provide our customers with full scale interior and exterior
mockups utilizing the latest technology and material types. We have dedicated well over 7,000 sq ft of build space and can flex space to accommodate private build areas for classified programs.

Certification & Testing
RCO Certification Dept is well versed in all facets of FAA seat and divan TSO approval processes; including static, dynamic, and flammability test plans.
Staff DMIR, along with multiple supporting inspectors, support FAA conformities and FAIs.
We perform durability testing, static testing, fatigue testing, and environmental chamber testing in our 25,000 sq ft A2LA accredited mechanical test lab.
All of our dynamic testing takes place in FAA approved labs like NIAR at WSU.

Foam Components
After 30 years of pouring foam for our automotive customers we are now perfecting this process for the aerospace industry.
We can pour polyurethane directly into a mold and have a finished pad in less than 10 minutes.
If CAD data is not available and turn around time is tight, we can hand shape foam pads to any contour or hardness.
If CAD data is available we can use our CNC machines to cut multiple shapes of varying hardness.

Metal Components
RCO has extensive metal working capabilities to support the aerospace industry. Our CNC department houses milling machines, ranging from 3 axis to 5 axis and are dedicated to machining aluminum components for structural and aesthetic functions in aerospace interiors. In addition, we design and build our own dies, to stamp out lightweight aluminum and high strength steel components for seat structures, and other interior assemblies.

Plastic Components
We've been producing rapid prototype parts for the automotive industry since 1990. Using our FDM technology we can produce exact copies of your CAD file overnight, in a variety of materials. Once a part is made we build silicon molds which enable us to hand pour additional copies at a fraction of the cost. From the FDM we can also build small to large injection molds that can produce well over 20,000 parts.
