Alongside our standard motion platform catalogue, SimTorque partners with UK-based bespoke motion manufacturers to deliver custom builds for institutional, commercial and defence customers. If your project requires a motion platform that doesn't exist off the shelf, we can help you scope, build, and deliver it.

What We Deliver

  • Bespoke motion platforms

    Custom motion configurations engineered to your specific application, including standing platforms, oversized footprints, and non-standard motion envelopes.

  • Safety-engineered systems for VR and training

    Properly engineered safety systems for personnel training, including guard rails, harness points, motion envelope limiters, emergency stops, and instructor supervision integration.

  • Custom software integration

    Hardware interfaces developed to work with your existing simulation software, including UDP telemetry input, memory-mapped data feeds, or pre-configured plug-and-play hardware where appropriate.

Applications We Serve

01

Defence and military training

Custom motion platforms for personnel training applications, including maritime, aviation, and ground vehicle simulation.

02

Commercial training centres

Bespoke configurations for driver training, professional simulator operators, and vocational training facilities.

03

VR training and experience operators

Standing platforms, large-footprint configurations, and motion systems for VR training installations and immersive experience operators.

04

Specialist commercial installations

Demonstration platforms, showroom installations, and other commercial applications requiring custom motion engineering.

How It Works

  1. Initial enquiry

    Get in touch with as much detail as you can about your application, requirements, environment, timeline and budget. The more we know upfront, the better we can scope.

  2. Technical scoping

    We work with our manufacturing partner to scope the project technically — confirming the motion envelope, safety engineering, software integration approach, and any specific requirements.

  3. Quote and proposal

    A structured proposal covering the build specification, lead time, delivery, installation approach, and pricing — broken out so you know exactly what you're paying for.

  4. Build with concurrent engagement

    Once the order is confirmed, we start the build. Your engineering team can engage directly with our manufacturer during the build for software integration and any technical refinement.

  5. UK testing and delivery

    Where the build allows, the platform is fully tested and signed off in the UK before crating and dispatch. Installation is handled either on-site by our partner or by your engineers with documentation and remote support, depending on what works best for the project.

Why Bespoke Rather Than Off The Shelf

Consumer motion platforms are built for consistent, standardised applications. Professional and institutional projects often need something different - different load capacity, different motion envelope, different safety engineering, different integration.
Rather than force-fitting a consumer platform into an application it wasn't designed for, working with a UK manufacturer who can build to your specification gives you a solution engineered for the job.


For defence, training and commercial customers, UK manufacturing also offers practical benefits - UK content for procurement purposes, easier aftersales support, no overseas import logistics for the supply chain, and direct relationships with the engineers building the system.
