These solutions provide the organic capability for simple, in-house design verification, test, or diagnostic programs in the lab, factory, depot, or field, preventing costly downtime and saving unnecessary repair costs.
"The increasing complexity of electronic and electro-mechanical systems creates challenges when it comes to verifying proper operation or diagnosing failures," said Jim Mulato, President of Astronics Test Systems. "The ATS-5000 Series gives our customers the peace of mind that their critical systems will function as designed and any issues can be quickly addressed. Our solutions can help ensure that transit authorities, airlines, defense and space system manufacturers, and manufacturers of critical equipment do not incur costly downtime or catastrophic failures."
The ATS-5000 Series offers a wide variety of application solutions that leverage modular and open designs to take advantage of common tools and software, ultimately reducing training and internal support costs. Functional emulation capabilities and test program set (TPS) development tasks are automated, enabling users to support the products specific to their systems without costly, long-term repairs that require support from the original equipment manufacturer (OEM). A versatile software abstraction layer helps mitigate obsolescence, reducing long-term logistics costs and providing the means to adapt the test station to other needs over time.
Potential users of the ATS-5000 Series could include, but are not limited to: mass transit system suppliers, rail car integrators or maintainers, transit authorities, infrastructure installation crews, defense and weapons system manufacturers or maintainers, avionics manufacturers or maintenance organizations, space systems manufacturers, automotive component and system manufacturers, and any designers or manufacturers of electronics or electromechanical products.
