This SAE Aerospace Information Report is to supplement content from ARP4163 pertaining to error analysis on the use of multiple drive adapter applications, on both vertical and horizontal balance machines. This new Aerospace Information Report will serve as a practical resource that offers guidance to the Machine Operator and Process Engineer.

To inform users on proper use, procedures and common errors when using electronic compensation for tooling on horizontal and vertical balancing machines

Provide guidance on how balance machine vector data is captured and reported. Provide an understanding of how to transform balance machine vector data to alternate locations. Provide guidance on how vector imbalances may be used to evaluate and diagnose balance process performance.

to provide industry with a reference document highlighting the necessary design considerations and configuration option for an aircraft fully enclosed test facility (Hush House).

This document establishes process parameters for gas turbine rotor balancing. Adherence to the recommendations made herein will facilitate attainment of the usually high degree of accuracy and precision required for jet engine rotor balance.

This document describes a method for measuring deformations, and fragment distribution patterns during an impact between a soft or frangible projectile and a regular helispherical leading edge. The document describes the hardware, setup, and instrumentation required. In this test method a soft body projectile impacts a helispherical leading edge symmetric to the curvature and centric in the transversal direction. The ductile target is backup by a rigid adapter structure behind. The target must be sufficiently large so that the projectile flows around its curvature and induces an indentation. This test is intended for measuring the remaining plastic deformation of the target after the impact. The projectile breakup pattern data may also be captured during this test. The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are considered separate standards. The values stated in each system may not be exactly equivalent; therefore, each system must be considered as independent.

This document describes a method for measuring deformations from a normal impact between a soft or frangible projectile and clamped plate. The document describes the hardware, setup, and instrumentation required. In this test method a soft body projectile impacts a square ductile plate clamped on all four sides. This test is intended for measuring the remaining plastic deformation of the target after the impact.The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are considered separate standards. The values stated in each system may not be exactly equivalent; therefore, each system must be considered as independent. This standard does not address all of the safety concerns associated with its use. It is the responsibility of each user of this standard to ensure that any safety issues are properly addressed.

This Aerospace Recommended Practice covers various requirements for Airport runway deicers, to be used with various carrier vehicles primarily used to treat the runway surface with an even coating of deicer fluids. It does not apply to non-airport snow and ice removal equipment such as highway plows or construction/farm machinery.

The scope of these standards will relate to single-axis moment scales only. Topics covered include dimensional characteristics of single-axis moment scale interfaces, general tooling requirements, scale and tooling accuracy, and display instrument accuracy requirements. Additionally, general guidelines for qualification of equipment and tooling are included, as are general requirements for single-axis blade distribution software.

This document defines the Level 1 tests required for qualifying an artificial bird for certification testing of aircraft and aircraft engines. Level 1 refers to the lowest level of the test pyramid associated with the building block approach defined in the CMH-17 Composite Materials Handbook. The test pyramid consists of a sequence of 5 levels of testing, ranging from the most basic at the lowest level of the pyramid to the most complex at the apex. Typically the number of tests performed has an inverse relationship to the complexity of the tests. The building block approach is used for defining the tests required to qualify an artificial bird that would be accepted by regulatory agencies for certification testing of aircraft, including rotorcraft, fixed wing fuselages and engines, where bird strike testing is currently required. This document only describes the tests required for Level 1 of the test pyramid. Separate documents define the tests required at higher levels.

The goal of this new document is to provide criteria for managing, auditing, and controlling the use of rotating balancing tooling and associated support tools. A variety of subjects will be addressed including serialization and marking requirements, critical inspection criteria, performance tracking through tooling compensation trend analysis, handling of gage standards (rotor simulators, master blades, dummy blades, etc.), recommendations for periodic and preventive maintenance intervals, test recommendations to evaluate rotating tooling performance, requirements for traceable measures (such as torques, runouts, eccentricity, etc.), repeatability characterization, and criteria for return to service.

This SAE Aerospace Resource Document (ARD) document covers the requirements for a self-propelled GRV, intended for use at airports to collect spent aircraft de-icing fluid (ADF) from the surface of de-icing areas. This unit will recover de-icing fluid from the surface, which will be stored in a containment unit on the vehicle. The GRV must be capable of night and day operations in all weather conditions, as required.

The scope is to describe a vehicle mounted, high velocity and volume air blower machine for use is clearing snow, debris, or surface contamination from pavements or ground located obstructions.

A guide to maintenance procedures in test cells. A suggested equipment monitoring and/or inspections to reduce the probability of unanticipated failures and associated test cell down time. Guidelines for using typically available data acquisition capabilities in a test cell are provided to utilize normally available trending capability to monitor the testing equipment in addition to using these tools for the usual monitoring of the test article. For the common types of test cells (turboshaft, turboprop, turbojet, and turbofan) test facilities, lists of typical systems with their associated components are provided with suggested inspection intervals and key items to look for in the inspection. A template risk assessment form is provided to facilitate the customization of the assessment of the test cell components to help predict recommended spares.

This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) document covers the requirements for a Snowcompressor with carrier vehicle used to clear snow from airport operational areas by compressing the volume of collected snow into smaller volumes for loading into a hauling/dump truck or for depositing reduced-volume windrows for snow banking. The term carrier vehicle represents the various self-propelled prime movers that provide the power necessary to move snow and ice control equipment during winter operations. For two-stage rotary plows that primarily are used to cast heavy concentrations of snow away from airport operational areas such as runways and taxiways, see ARP5539.

This new Aerospace Recommended Practice will serve as a practical resource that offers guidance to both the machine operator and Process Engineer for isolating the source(s) of non-repeatability in measured unbalance data. The content of this standard addresses: • Vertical Dynamic Machine Capability to achieve the specified unbalance tolerances and repeat within those tolerances • Tooling Capability to repeat within the specified unbalance tolerances • Rotor characteristics that may preclude repeating within the required unbalance tolerances.
