Managing and working in companies within the aviation spare parts industry can be a complicated experience. There are many moving segments in the entire procedure, and with so many pieces being sourced, inspected, and delivered, there's a lot of room for error. Aviation spare parts management often comes across certain scenarios and issues, so the best strategy to prepare for such predicaments is to identify which challenges occur, why they occur, and how to prevent them in the future. Being cognizant of these scenarios will help your department evade them.
When purchasing wires, it may be difficult to understand the difference between THHN (Thermoplastic High Heat Resistant Nylon) and TFFN (Thermoplastic Flexible Fixture Nylon) wires. Both THHN and TFFN wires are considered building wires, and this means that they are used in the construction of commercial, residential, and industrial buildings to serve electrical applications. Building wires are also manufactured to meet specifications and requirements as set out by the National Electrical Code (NEC). While both THHN and TFFN are used to create building wiring infrastructure, their purposes are somewhat different.
Managing an electrical box is an essential part of maintaining and controlling a building’s electrical system, and it is sometimes necessary to open the box to reset or repair the controls of the power supply. If problems are consistently arising related to the power service in a building, it may be necessary to have a technician come and service it. Because using electrical utilities on a daily basis is bound to cause issues at some point, and it is best to address problems early on rather than let them build.
Commercial And Government Entity Codes, or CAGE Codes as they are more commonly known as, are a standardized identifier that was created by the DLA in order to establish suppliers that are authorized to work with government and defense agencies. For many years, this code was permanent to an organization for their unique identification, but this has changed in recent years. Now, in an effort to improve the quality of data, the DLA has updated their assignment of CAGE Codes to expire after a set amount of time.
With the aerospace industry being one of the largest international sectors with supply chains that stretch across the world, there is constant collaboration and deadlines that create better need for ways to avoid obstacles and setbacks. Surprisingly enough, in the modern world of the aerospace industry, the biggest roadblock lies in digitalization.
The NATO Codification System (NCS) is used by all 28 NATO countries as a means of classifying components used within the military supply chains. All of the NATO armed forces each require a large amount of components that are easily sourced. The components themselves need to be manufactured to a high standard to pass the various safety checks. The NCS is the official program under which equipment and parts of the military supply systems are uniformly named, described, classified using a NATO stock number (NSN). Since there is a language barrier between all 28 countries, the NCS is a sort of supply chain language that is accessible to everyone. The aim of the program is to ensure that each military can source the correct parts they need.
A drone is a common term that is used to refer to an unmanned aircraft. In military terminology it is referred to as an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), or an unmanned aircraft system (UAS). It is a machine that can be maneuvered with a remote control or fly autonomously through preprogrammed flight paths embedded in their systems. They are designed with onboard sensors and GPS navigation which allow it to fly seamlessly.
Gearboxes can also be referred to as speed reducers, gear drives, or gearmotors. The main job of a gearbox is to increase torque, reduce or increase speed, reverse rotation, or change direction of the driveshaft. In this article, we will be talking about 6 different types of gear boxes.
The most advanced electronic devices in the world are useless without proper connections and cabling. While wireless transmissions may be all the rage for the convenience and mobility they offer, wires and cables still offer a more stable, consistent, and reliable connection. In this blog, we’ll break down some of the most common types of electric cables, their designs, and their common uses.
Early aircraft utilized a single braking system with no backup or failsafe. The system was simplistic in design and eventually deemed unsafe, causing the regulating authorities to incorporate robust overhauls. Airlines had to address the issue of potential loss of the primary hydraulic pump, which led to the implementation of electrically driven pumps that provided an alternate supply of hydraulic pressure. However, these solutions didn’t address the loss of fluid issue. Some manufacturers began incorporating a compressed air system for emergency braking, yet, there was only a limited amount of air the tanks could hold. This led to the concept of multiple, independent hydraulic systems backed up by accumulators. This system proved to be effective as it allows for several layers of failure without losing total control of the braking system; a concept that is still used today.
