Hydraulic test system for aircraft landing gear
Project requirements
Project overview.
Control Software Solutions developed a sophisticated software system for controlling a hydraulic machine used to test aircraft landing gear. The software was designed to handle complex control and monitoring tasks, ensuring accurate testing and reliable performance evaluation.
Results
Our solution.
The system was responsible for controlling and monitoring various parameters during the landing gear test, including position, load, pressure, and speed of compression/rotation. It also facilitated data acquisition from a range of sensors to evaluate the landing gear’s performance against predefined standards.
Key features
Position, load & pressure control
The software controlled the hydraulic machine’s position, load, pressure, and speed to simulate realistic landing conditions during testing.
Sensor monitoring
The system monitored numerous sensors, including load, pressure, temperature, and discrete sensors, providing comprehensive data on the machine’s operation.
Data acquisition
The system captured real-time data during testing, tracking key performance metrics and offering a detailed overview of test conditions.
Pass-fail determination
Performance was assessed by comparing the collected data against known gas curves and response times, determining whether the landing gear met the required standards for pass or fail.
Impact.
The developed control system provided several significant benefits:
Accurate testing
The software ensured precise control of the hydraulic machine and accurate monitoring of critical parameters, enabling reliable testing of landing gear.
Efficient performance evaluation
Automated data acquisition and pass/fail evaluation streamlined the testing process, reducing human intervention and accelerating test cycles.
Enhanced quality assurance
The system’s ability to track performance against predefined standards ensured that only landing gear meeting all criteria was passed, improving product quality and consistency.
Verdict
Conclusion.
This project demonstrates Control Software Solutions’ expertise in delivering customised control systems for complex testing environments. By providing precise control, real-time monitoring, and automated performance evaluation, we enabled the client to enhance the efficiency, reliability, and quality of their aircraft landing gear testing process.
