Industrial Smoke and Mirrors (ISM), located in Orlando FL delivered to Aero Simulation Inc. (ASI) a HH-60, FAA Level D upper motion platform to be integrated with a Bosch Rexroth electric motion system and the Rockwell Collins 220 x 60 visual display system. ASI is under contract to the US Coast Guard to supply the completed unit to their Mobile, Alabama Air Training Center (ATC).
In addition to the ISM standard COTS upper motion platform ISM has supplied a unique electric six axis cockpit shaker rather than the industry standard three axis component. The actuators are oil cooled extending the component life cycle three fold.
The cockpit shaker has the ability to achieve up to 20Hz, by eliminating the need for the motion system to impart the vibration cues and utilizing the ISM shaker system will result in improved system component reliability. The ISM six axis cockpit shaker is in use world wide.
The project included redesigning the existing egress ramp which ISM performed at their in-house facility. The ramp hydraulic actuators control system was removed and replaced with an ISM electric actuation system. The elimination of the hydraulic system reduces maintenance costs, the handling and disposal of hydraulic fluid and superior performance characteristics.
The ISM electric ramp actuation system has proven field reliability at locations including the US Navy at North Island, SIMCOM training systems and at Transport Canada. ISM is proud to be part of the ASI team which is delivering an exceptional training device to the fine young men and women of the US Coast Guard who serve our country.
