The Kronos difference

Kronos Engineering does not distribute Shockform Aeronautique Inc. equipment. Our expertise lies in special processes and their qualification — this neutrality is our guarantee of technical objectivity: we recommend what is genuinely best for your part, your standard, your production volume.

Context and positioning

Shockform Aéronautique Inc. (Montreal) is the leading global manufacturer of FlapSpeed, a calibrated flapper peening controller, and PeenScan, a coverage inspection system. Its equipment is a market reference for on-wing and shop flapper peening, used by MROs and OEM workshops.

Kronos Engineering has delivered process expertise on FlapSpeed technology for more than a decade — in production, heavy MRO and AOG. Our value covers the full process cycle: media calibration, controller settings, execution per AMS 2432 / ABP 1-4006, and traceability.

Typical operations

On-wing & AOG flapper peening — process expertise

Aircraft intervention on the flight line, line or hangar MRO. Mobile flapper peening tooling, AMS 2432 compliance.

Structural repair post-major repair

Flapper peening of zones repaired after corrosion, impact or modification. Execution and MRB documentation.

Third-party flapper peening parameter audit

Independent review of Almen intensity, speed, distance; verification of compliance with manufacturer data.

Flapper peening operator training

Theoretical + practical curriculum for operators using FlapSpeed technology — process-oriented, distinct from manufacturer training.

Why Kronos on Shockform Aeronautique Inc.

Field process expertise. We operate flapper peening technology daily. Our operators know the real drifts, calibration pitfalls and field tricks that no documentation covers.

24/7 AOG response with calibrated flapper peening tooling. Worldwide intervention within 24h in most aerospace hubs, with qualified media.

Dual manual + automated capability. We also master alternatives to flapper peening (manual shot peening per AMS 2432) — the choice is driven by the case, not by the tool.

Frequently asked questions

Does Kronos resell FlapSpeed units?+

No. We provide process expertise on flapper peening technology and train your operators in its use — but we are not a Shockform distributor.

Can you intervene on aircraft with flapper peening tooling?+

Yes. Our field teams have calibrated flapper peening kits ready for 24h AOG deployment to major aerospace hubs.

What are the advantages of flapper peening vs manual shot peening?+

Flapper peening offers more repeatable intensity control and digital traceability. Manual shot peening remains useful in very confined areas. We master both and recommend based on the part and standard.
