Famic Technologies Has Contributed to Create CAE's Professional Troubleshooting Skills Tool with Its Automation Studio(TM) Software
Famic Technologies announced that it has completed its mandate to design a diagnosis function for the Professional Troubleshooting Skills (PTS), a new CAE tool for developing professional skills designed to train aircraft electrical systems maintenance technicians.
Developed by Famic Technologies, Automation Studio has been selected by CAE for its cutting edge simulation features proven to be very beneficial to PTS. First of all, Automation Studio capabilities allow users to go much more in-depth than just what an animation could bring, rendering PTS a truly integrated simulation tool. Thus, fault diagnosis exercises are based on actual schematics of simulated aircraft systems (electrical, hydraulic, etc.) schematics that respond to troubleshooting procedures. With the interactive graphical showing physical representations of the aircraft or system being examined, Automation Studio allows students to observe how the system reacts to their various commands.
Automation Studio's performance capabilities enhance PTS the flexibility and scalability needed to create a multitude of failure scenarios. It is thus possible to create different training frameworks without having to modify the tool or to make any unnecessary and costly modifications to adapt PTS to another learning scenario. Finally, with the addition of an evaluation function in order to determine the fastest and most cost-effective troubleshooting solution, technicians will be better trained to quickly repair failures and choose the most efficient options to perform their maintenance activities.
"We are pleased to collaborate with CAE for the development of its new Professional Troubleshooting Skills tool by providing our expertise built through our dedicated work over the past 25 years," said Charbel Nasr, President of Famic Technologies. "Automation Studio is clearly the best solution that allows PTS to be an efficient tool with the flexibility and the perfomance expected by CAE. Additionally, this collaboration demonstrates once again how Automation Studio is a solution that not only meets the needs of engineering and maintenance, but also those of training as well".
