Aeronautics and Aerospace

For more than 20 years, Wintech Groupe (EN 9100 certified) has participated in aeronautics and aerospace programmes. We provide our experience and expertise in the design of optical windows (monoblock protection optical windows, custom-made optical windows) and precision optics.

Wintech Groupe is the inventor of the monoblock optical window dedicated to the protection of on-board cameras. This innovation, which is now an essential feature of the aeronautical equipment market, has made it possible to overcome technical and inconvenient defects in previously used multi-layer optical windows.

Our monoblock optical windows (RTCA DO-160 and MIL-STD-810 standards) equip civilian and military aircraft belonging to the World’s leading manufacturers (Airbus, Boeing, Dassault).

We also design custom-made optical windows and precision optics. The use of Ultrasonic machines makes it possible to manufacture complex materials such as Sapphire. Our precision optics are well-known for their very high quality, reliability and resistance for use in the aeronautics / aerospace industry.

Examples of custom-made optical window and precision optic creations for the aeronautics / aerospace industry:

  • Design and manufacturing of protection windows for RVS and CVS on-board cameras, and protection windows for RVS and CVS illuminators for the Airbus A400M (on all aircraft in flight).
  • Design and manufacturing of protection windows for on-board Nose TAC, Belly TAC and Fin TAC cameras for the Airbus A380 (on all aircraft).
  • Design and manufacturing of protection windows for on-board Landscape cameras for the Boeing B777 and B787 planes.
  • Design and manufacturing of a high purity CaF2 Grism for the Galex space probe for a NASA programme.
