AS9145 Requirements for Advanced Product Quality Planning and Production Part Approval

2024-07-08
This course is verified by Probitas as meeting the AS9104/3A requirements for Continuing Professional Development. Production and continual improvement of safe and reliable products is key in the aviation, space, and defense industries. Customer and regulatory requirements must not only be met, but they are typically expected to exceeded requirements. Due to globalization, the supply chain of this industry has been expanded to countries which were not part of it in the past and has complicated the achievement of requirements compliance and customer satisfaction.

AS13100 RM13145 Requirements for Advanced Product Quality Planning and Production Part Approval

2024-06-03
This course is verified by Probitas Authentication as meeting the AS9104/3A requirements for continuing Professional Development. Aerospace manufacturers seek to improve quality, efficiency, cost, and delivery of their products. The best way to scale production and keep your processes on track is using APQP and PPAP tools in product development. AS9145 standardizes the requirements for the Product Development Process (PDP) with these tools, and now the AESQ has also established and deployed the AS13100 Standard for engine suppliers which addresses how to apply the tools to their work.

Tanks play a pivotal role in swiftly deploying firepower across dynamic battlefields. The core of tank mobility lies within their powertrains, driven by diesel engines or gas turbines. To better understand the benefits of each power system, this study uses geo-location data from the National Training Center to understand the power and energy requirements from a main battle tank over an 18-day rotation. This paper details the extraction, cleaning, and analysis of the geo-location data to produce a series of representative drive cycles for an NTC rotation. These drive-cycles serve as a basis for evaluating powertrain demands, chiefly focusing on fuel efficiency. Notably, findings reveal that substantial idling periods in tank operations contribute to diesel engines exhibiting notably lower fuel consumption compared to gas turbines. Nonetheless, gas turbines present several merits over diesel engines, notably an enhanced power-to-weight ratio and superior power delivery.
