By using Avionics Test Bench and Avionics Test Studio, customers are able to leverage PXI’s compatibility across all phases of the product’s life. Compatible test results and a flexible test system can significantly improve troubleshooting efficiency. Compatibility also reduces No Fault Found incidences for nav/comm systems, saving time and money in the process…

Aeroflex has announced the introduction of Avionics Test Bench and Avionics Test Studio, the first reconfigurable PXI-based test platform for avionics navigation and communications. Unlike stand-alone bench instruments, Aeroflex’s new avionics test system addresses test compatibility by leveraging PXI’s common platform and flexibility.

Today the avionics industry is plagued by No Fault Found (NFF) problems—this occurs when a unit fails on an aircraft but passes all tests in the repair shop. NFF troubleshooting difficulty is compounded by incompatible test system results, where different testers are used during production testing and service. By developing a common avionics test platform, Aeroflex brings much-needed compatibility to the entire product lifespan, including design, production testing and maintenance of avionics navigation and communications systems.
