Trouble-Shooting Procedure Standardization to Increase the Overhaul Maintenance Efficiency of Avionics Components

Abstract

To perform avionics Overhaul maintenance efficiently, this paper proposed trouble-shooting procedure standardization by using Control Panel, ****, one of avionics components and universal Automatic Test Equipment (ATE). In modern aircraft, more and more avionics components monitor and control aircraft by using the latest computer technology for easy operation of the pilot and prevention of human errors. Accordingly, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) trying to be engaged in avionics maintenance business are also increasing but the supply of skilled mechanics does not meet increasing maintenance demand. Thus, this study proposed procedure standardization using general purpose ATE that can systematically complete the insufficient part of skilled mechanics in the trouble- shooting process requiring the most skilled mechanics during the Overhaul maintenance process and reviewed the validity of the proposed method. This study will help to manage the production capacity of SMEs starting avionics maintenance business newly.
