Computerized tool control systems in aircraft maintenance
1. Computerized Tool Control Systems in Aircraft Maintenance
Since the dawn of commercial aviation aircraftmaintenance has always been
wherethe financial controllers look to cut operating cost. Aircraftparts and
salaries for qualified personneltake a big junk outof an airline’s income. In
today’s world, technology provides a solution to a problemthat haunted the
aviation industry ever since the firstmechanic used a screw driver on an aircraft.
CFOs of coursewill see this as an unnecessary cost. Toolcontrol and discipline
upon completion of aircraftmaintenance can be carried out by using simple
shadow boards and foamcut outs in the tool boxes. The professionalaircraft
engineers, technicians and mechanics would of coursecarry out a second or
independent inspection of the aircraftas per their company’s safety management
and quality control manuals prior to releasing the aircraftto service. If everyone
do their job as expected all would be fine. But we all know the human element is
hanging over our heads ready to strike. Are operators willing to spend money for
the advancetechnology that is available for tool control.
Tools boxes that comes with built in electronic control, when tools are taken out
and issued to a mechanic his employee number is recorded as a withdrawaland
clears only upon its return. The electronic aircraftjourney or technical log is linked
to the tool box that has an electronic clearance after its contents is returned.
Only then can the aircraftbe released to service.
Smaller operators will be the first to ignorethese available systems. Butcan they
really afford to do so. We all know the saying, “Accidents Cost”.
Operators know goneare the days when engineers are expected to show up for
work with their personaltools and many havetaken action by having company
issued tools for aircraftmaintenance. Will operators see this as an important
assetfor their engineering department. Computerized tool control assets
acquisition should be on your next budget.
