Vibration
Monitoring Equipment
Aero Support has extensive experience in specifying
vibration monitoring equipment for use in
aero engine test facilities, as ground support
equipment and in the power generation industry.
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.
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.

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.

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.
