News and Events
A Revolution in Troubleshooting
In a joint effort with L3COM/TCS and Eclypse International, AACL recently completed major initiatives to field automated wiring analysis capabilities for the MC-130W Intercom System (ICS) and ALR-69 Warning Receiver. These capabilities allow the WR-ALC Combat Loss Replacement production line to reduce post modification wiring check-out time by 85 percent. A major improvement in troubleshooting capability for electrical technicians; two weeks of manual wiring continuity checkout time is now slashed to less than a day. This effort represents one of the largest C-130 airframe wiring analysis efforts completed to date.
High Velocity Maintenance
AACL continues to be a leader in the development of the exciting new maintenance concept called High Velocity Maintenance (HVM). A concept that places primary emphasis on reducing variability through the application of predictive analysis techniques, AACL teamed with L3Com/TCS have demonstrated major successes in both failure data analysis and pre-induction field inspections. These successes have provided the foundation for minimizing airframe condition variability, thus maximizing the ability to accurately pre-position parts, equipment and personnel prior to Programmed Depot Maintenance (PDM) induction at WR-ALC.
AACL Develops Enhanced Storage of Aircraft Parts
Maintaining accountability for and storage of aircraft parts removed during the PDM process has historically been a challenging effort. The sheer number of parts removed and the numerous routing requirements for repair render the Facilitate Other Maintenance (FOM) storage process difficult to manage. AACL has developed a Mobile Logistics Storage System© (MLSS) that provides a secure, environmentally controlled storage capability that offers the positive attributes of full mobility. These towable, castered container systems can store up to 2600 cubic feet of aircraft parts. When a PDM aircraft begins rebuild, the system can be towed to shipside, where all parts are readily available for mechanic use; a true point of use solution!
