2008 was a big year, marking our entrance into the aerospace seat design and manufacturing services domain. We began our foray into the sector with a leading aerospace company for which we developed custom aircraft seating programs. Notoriously stringent with their industry standards and certifications, leading aerospace brands took note of our flexibility and ability to complete truly custom projects with ease. Our vertical integration and extensive experience in the automotive industry have positioned us as a key supplier in the aerospace industry.
We deliver specialized and highly customized aerospace engineering services with the efforts and dedication of over 300 engineers and designers experienced in plastic, metal, and composite product design.
Our team has designed 4 families, with 25 different model numbers, of TSOA seats and divans that are in service today.

Using RCO’s end-to-end 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.
Our flexibility to develop virtually any prototype in our own facilities with speed and quality allows us both scalability and reliability – two unique capabilities that give us a distinctive edge in delivering aerospace manufacturing services for diverse clients.

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.
With comfort engineering we focus on addressing comfort challenges – a key factor for all flight passengers, be it a business jet or commercial airline.

RCO Aerospace has a dedicated seat manufacturing facility with the expertise and capabilities to take on any program. We produce over 80 percent of the seat components in house for our production seat programs. Our facility also touts an EASA approved FAA Certified 145 repair station with specialization in seat and component repairs.
A lot goes into manufacturing one final product. We produce and assemble thousands of different parts made from several materials. Yet our in-house production teams have routinely exceeded clients’ expectations by manufacturing everything, from small parts to robust, high-quality components with precision, regardless of the size of the production project. Currently we’re delivering aerospace manufacturing services that include, production as well as servicing for a variety of aircraft seats for a major business jet manufacturer.

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 the turnaround time is tight, we can hand shape foam pads to any contour or hardness.
On the other hand, if CAD data is available we can use our CNC machines to cut multiple shapes of varying hardness.
Equipped with both expertise and advanced machinery for milled and molded foam work, our team has continuously excelled in the creation of foam cushions and backs for premium seating modeled on innovative aerospace component designs.

RCO has extensive metal working capabilities to support the aerospace industry. Our CNC department houses milling machines, ranging from 3 axis to 5 axes 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.

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.
