AERTEC Curtains and Curtain Rails for Cabin Interiors

AERTEC is an industrial group specializing in the equipment and maintenance of passenger cabins in the transportation industry, with a strong focus on aeronautics. A flexible and responsive service provider, the AERTEC Group also develops innovative strategies for dedicated products supported by its own R&D department. At the forefront of AERTEC’s aircraft cabin products are its range of curtains and curtain rail systems.

ELECTRIC CURTAIN RAIL SYSTEMS

The ER (Electrical Rail) curtain system is able to open or close shades or pleated curtains along a curved or linear aluminium rail. It can be used in a "basic version", or in a "position detection" version that allows for review of its position status from the cabin’s central panel. It can be interfaced with the cabin management system and a local switch.

The gliders in the curtain are durable and have been design especially for the electrical rail, reducing friction. A back-up manual mode is included in the first pleat in case of any failure, allowing for manual movement of the curtain. The curtain bundle is automatic, with the curtains stowed for take-off and landing in order not to reduce a cabin’s aisle width.

ACOUSTIC AIRCRAFT CABIN CURTAINS

AERTEC also produces acoustic curtains for aircraft cabins. The curtains feature a VIP finish and provide general thermal / acoustic insulation. Tested in accordance to ASTML C384 standards, AERTEC acoustic curtains display an absorption coefficiency of 0.2. AERTEC’s acoustic curtains are fully compatible with the company’s electric rail systems.
