NODIN Aviation AS is a Norwegian company specialized in developing role equipment for rapid reconfiguration of troop transport vehicles, vessels or aircraft into CASEVAC/MEDEVAC (casualty evacuation / medical evacuation) units. The equipment is designed to be deployed quickly with low weight and focus on comfort for the patients.

To ensure success the company takes pride in working closely with their customers and users in particular, hence the company's motto; your needs - our knowledge - equals innovation.

NATO MEDEVAC Stretcher is four folded with telescopic handles and is designed in accordance with NATO standards for ground, naval and air operations. The NODIN NATO MEDEVAC Stretcher is designed and tested in accordance with NATO STANAG 2040 and NATO STANAG 3204. To assure safe handling and transport of the patient on stretcher, the NATO MEDEVAC Stretcher is equipped with a 5 point shoulder harness and two point thigh harness to firmly secure the patient. NATO MEDEVAC Stretcher is designed with pinch free hinges and has 6 ea 12mm connecting holes for securing equipment to the stretcher. To avoid unintended collapse of stretcher during handling the traverses are firmly secured.

CASEVAC KIT

Patient Transport Support System (PTSS) for critical patients in need of continued monitoring and care during transport. The PTSS is suspended in Standard Aircraft Stretcher Support and has a retractable undercarriage.

Tactical Evacuation-ROLE Equipment

Shock and Vibration Damped Stretcher Rack

For vessels and vehicles, where it is almost impossible to avoid shocks, jolts and vibrations, NODIN Aviation AS has developed a stretcher rack with a unique and patented dampening unit. This unit may be used in several other applications to reduce shock, jolts and vibrations. The damper has been simulated in a mine shock environment, reducing a vehicle input shock from 40.000g in floor-panel down to 3,9 g at stretcher interface bracket. The web based system facilitates spherical dampening of shocks and jolts reducing the effect of uneven roads or even IEDs.

Shock and Vibration Damped Support

Shock and Vibration Damped Stretcher Rack is dramatically reduced before entering the patient. Simulations demonstrate that a 40.000g impact in the floor panel is reduced, for a roof mounted NT-620 stretcher rack, to 3,9g on the stretcher bracket and even less at the patient. As the system dampens shocks in all directions, spherical, Shock and Vibration Damped Stretcher Rack is also ideal to reduce the impact from IEDs, roadside bombs. During off road transport it reduces jolts and vibrations, facilitates a less painful evacuation for the patient and reduces the possibilities of increasing the injury.

Temporary Housing

To facilitate rapid deployment of Casualty Staging Areas (CSU) or temporary treatment facilities, the Tactical Operational Shelters (TOPS) are very suitable.

Light weight and easily erectable mobile shelters which comes in a variety of models. Ideal as CSUs or temporary treatment facilities as they are modular and interconnectable. Manufactured by Golden Season Ltd, a Singaporean based company with extensive experience in rescue and medical protocols.
