Digitalization in Aviation – Challenges that Await
In the era of digitalization, requirements are growing tremendously for a comprehensive infrastructure of cabin systems and cabin electronics. This applies to both air and ground operations. As the entire aviation industry is engaged in a battle for "data supremacy" of all systems related to the aircraft, crew and PAX, there is a perception that the reliability, availability and compatibility of the components needed for this are self-evident. However, this is what will pose the greatest challenge.
In the era of digitalization, requirements are growing tremendously for a comprehensive infrastructure of cabin systems and cabin electronics. This applies to both air and ground operations. As the entire aviation industry is engaged in a battle for "data supremacy" of all systems related to the aircraft, crew and PAX, there is a perception that the reliability, availability and compatibility of the components needed for this are self-evident. However, this is what will pose the greatest challenge.
That is because the standard for competitiveness – in terms of functionality, weight, capacity, availability, service life and Total Cost of Ownership – continues to grow along with the demand for the greatest possible customization or flexibility in customer-specific designs and options. There is no end in sight here.
These requirements can only be fulfilled based on consumer and industry standards. The answer lies in what are known as "smart" modular solutions. In their basic form, they have already been tested in a lot of applications and solutions. Based on their modularity, they enable a broad range of applications in different industries. This means that they provide the production volumes needed for suitable pricing and the experience for the required robustness.
TQ Systems is taking precisely this approach. As an electronics service provider and technology partner for many businesses in a wide variety of industries, our company is able to offer its customers a very broad range of experience and extensive competencies. In the process, we at TQ can call upon proven (in-house) embedded solutions to deliver complete electronic systems for communications, drive control, HMI, electrical supply, electrical distribution, sensors and of course the interplay of complex mechanical and electronic components!
