Commercial Aviation

Barry Controls Aerospace is the major supplier of vibration isolation systems used on commercial jet aircraft. Barry Controls Aerospace also provides APU mounts for virtually every commercial aircraft in service, soft mounts for sub-systems such as pumps, instruments and interior panel mounts.

In commercial jet aircraft the primary sources of vibration are the main aircraft engine and the Auxiliary Power Unit (APU). Engine vibration from jet engines and APU's lead to the unnecessary expense of replacing damaged components, excessive cabin noise, and crew and passenger discomfort and structural fatigue.

Most commercial aircraft engine and APU vibration isolators produced by BCA are designed so that they can be rebuilt, maximizing cost effectiveness while minimizing reoccurring maintenance costs. Barry Controls Aerospace is an FAA-approved repair station (UT 3R905L), offering repair and complete overhaul of Barry Controls Aerospace and non-Barry Controls Aerospace vibration isolators and engine mount structures.

Isolators for engines and APU's are just one of the ways that Barry Controls serves the Aerospace industry. In most cases, excessive vibration is the leading cause of engine component failure. Isolating components with a high failure rate is a proven method of decreasing maintenance costs and ensuring continued safe operation of aircraft.
