Teledyne Controls, of El Segundo, Calif., reached an agreement with Boeing to supply its Digital Flight Data Acquisition Unit (DFDAU) for Boeing’s Airplane Health Management (AHM) system for the Next‑Generation 737.
Teledyne’s DFDAU, which combines functions of mandatory data acquisition and recording with an Aircraft Condition Monitoring System (ACMS), is hosting a set of custom ACMS applications designed to acquire and output data into Boeing’s ground analysis tools, according to Teledyne.
"Working together with Teledyne will provide enhanced connectivity to airplane systems, and will advance AHM for Next-Generation 737 customers," said John Maggiore, Program Manager, Airplane Health Management, Boeing Commercial Airplanes. "This is a key focus area for expanding the AHM customer base."
