Specialising in the use of the CEC Vibration Products range of equipment, Aero Support have for many years forged a close working relationship with Aerotest Ltd and Honeywell UK among others.

Design inspection

Starting at the specification of the equipment, we can provide tailored solutions including full design, installation and commissioning services for our clients.

Data Acquisition Systems
Our engineers are experienced in providing turn-key data acquisition installations and solutions.

Our engineers will analyse a clients requirements, detail both the hardware and software needed to fulfil the project goals. Our turnkey solutions provide the client with detailed proposals, electrical interface drawings, operating and maintenance manuals, training and follow-on support.

Modern data acquisition systems can greatly improve the efficiency of a test facility, cutting cell occupancy times, reducing fuel usage and obtain more accurate test data than achievable with an old analogue based system. Data collected can automatically be archived, trended and analysed to give the test engineers reliable fault finding and problem diagnostic information.

Operator screen displays and information presentation and test reporting is customised to the individual client ensuring that the users are provided with the optimum working environment.

An important benefit of a well designed data acquisition system is the ability to continually monitor both the engine and the facility parameter data signals to ensure that the information being monitored is within programmed limits.

This has two benefits to the user:-
  a) The engine and facility are protected from any dangerous running conditions, which could endanger personnel or the facility itself.
  b) The data acquisition system ensures that all of the data recorded is within specified expected levels. This ensures that no erroneous data is recorded which could otherwise lead to the requirement to re-test the engine - a timely and costly exercise.

Aero Support is extremely experienced in the system integration of the very popular and versatile National Instruments series of products. Having designed, specified, installed, commissioned and maintained various systems for our customer’s world wide.

Also we have extensive working knowledge of the Daytronic range of data acquisition systems. Having installed, commissioned and maintained numerous installations world wide, over many years.

Application Test Software
Our engineers are able to produce bespoke engine and component test software, specifically tailored to the client’s requirements.

Test Facility Conversions
Many aero engine test facilities in operation today are in need of upgrading to either take advantage of modern instrumentation and control systems or to add new engine capability.

Our engineers have all the experience needed to successfully convert old test facilities to more modern testing environments and to integrate new engine types into the facility.

We have vast experience in liaising with engine manufacturers to ensure that the conversion is carried out to their exacting requirements and also provide technical assistance during the cross correlation (facility approval) stage.

Aero Support Ltd. have extensive experience in the following engine/aircraft types:
C130-H, C130-J, AP3-C, T56-A-15, T56-A-14, M53-P2, ALF502, LF507, Adour, 501-D22A, 501-D22C

HercWatch is being further developed to include vibration recognition capabilities as an option to the standard product.

Hercwatch - Engine Performance and Trending

The AS-440 is being used in trials to perform C130H propeller balancing. This is an exciting development for this very versatile product and will provide operators with a very low cost and robust balance option.

Aero Support is currently working towards obtaining the ISO9001 Quality System Approval.

 


Project Management
Effective Project Management is an important tool, whether the project is small or large.

Too many companies ignore the benefits of utilising the many project management techniques which are available today.

Our engineers have extensive experience in managing complex projects and have been responsible for projects up to £13 million pounds sterling and lasting for up to 2 years in duration.


Tender Production
Technical tender production in your choice of electronic media formats for submission to third parties to quotation purposes is sometimes just as difficult as the task of designing the end requirement. It is imperative that the tender documents detail exactly what the client wants.

Consulting

Working closely with the customer, we can produce a tender specification which will ensure that all of the technical aspects of the project requirements are detailed to the supplier at the tender stage. This will ensure that the companies tendering for the project will incorporate all of the company’s requirement and make it much easier for the client to evaluate their offers.


Tender Evaluation
We offer a completely unbiased tender evaluation service which will highlight to the client the precise offers from prospective suppliers. Aero Support will produce a detailed report covering all of the suppliers tender submissions, make comparisons and clarify the technical aspects of the tender to the client.

Technical projects invariably require the client to be able to verify exactly what the supplier intends to include within the scope of supply and sometimes this information is difficult to precisely ascertain. Aero Support can help with this process.

Feasibility Studies
We are pleased to be offer our clients a feasibility study service. Prior to allocating vast sums of money and resources to a project it is often necessary to produce a feasibility study to verify the projects viability. This is sometimes best carried out by a third party to keep the companies' plans or aspirations secret prior to announcing the company’s intentions to both the rest of industry and to the general work force.

Full technical and commercial feasibility studies are undertaken to include both written reports and outline designs in CAD format. Aero Support can produce drawings in AutoCAD formats to suit customer’s requirements.
