Acron Aviation has entered into a long-term strategic partnership with SPHEREA Tests & Services, (SPHEREA) for its recorder and surveillance products. This agreement utilizes SPHEREA’s cutting-edge ATEC Series7, found in most aeronautical workshops across the globe, to facilitate ‘Return to Service’ testing of Acron Aviation recorders and Aviation Communication and Surveillance Systems  - a joint venture between Acron Aviation and Thales - products.

This multi-year collaboration leverages the strengths of both organizations to develop and bring to market cutting-edge test equipment for licensed airlines and global repair centres to test, repair, and overhaul Acron Aviation equipment.

Ron Nye, Director, Product Management at Acron Aviation commented: “This agreement underscores both parties’ dedication to safety by driving progress and empowering airlines and maintenance centers with innovative, highly effective test equipment that streamlines workflows and minimizes aircraft downtime.

The first Jointly developed test solution due to roll-out later in the year will facilitate Acron Aviation’s SRVIVR25 recorder product line, with market-leading Traffic Collision Avoidance System, T3CAS, and legacy FA2100 Data Recorders to follow in 2026.

Patrice BÉLIE, CEO of SPHEREA Group stated: "This is an important moment for SPHEREA as we formalize this major multi-year partnership with Acron Aviation. By combining our cutting-edge testing capabilities with Acron Aviation’s state-of-the-art technology, we look forward to playing a key role in the continued evolution of aeronautical equipment testing, ensuring the highest levels of quality and reliability are maintained for aircraft operators worldwide."

This contract demonstrates that SPHEREA is a key player in the TIC (Testing Inspection Certification) chain, a result of the hard work and commitment of our teams to meet the needs of our clients, whose expertise is internationally recognized.
