GE Aviation RADS-NG Rotor Track and Balance Solution

RADS-NG (GE) Features and Specifications *

RADS-NG replaces RADS-AT and AVA as GE’s portable vibration diagnostics solution for vehicles where permanent installation is not practical or to supplement existing systems.

As the industry standard for RT&B and standard equipment for the U.S. Army and the U.K. Navy, approximately 5,000 RADS/AVA units have been supplied supporting civil and military rotorcraft worldwide. The system is configurable with more than 200 vehicle types and variants supported, including: single and twin rotors, tandem, coaxial, inter-meshing and eVTOL. In addition, the system’s versatility offers engine diagnostics and fixed-wing propeller vibration balancing.

Compatible with all existing RADS-AT/AVA applications. The refreshed solution consists of a new compact Data Acquisition Unit (DAU) and a powerful new user-friendly experience with the Control and Display Unit (CADU) implemented as an app on a COTS rugged device. The system utilizes the same sensor suite and interconnections as the original system and is compatible with all existing RADS-AT applications. In addition, we retained the system’s configuration flexibility and adaptability so OEMs or trained customers can design vehicle configurations and procedures tailored to their own products and fleets.

Both complete system and DAU only options allow use of existing RADS kits and COTS laptops / tablets.

The system is configurable for many types of aircraft*:

Bell – OH-58, UH-1, AH-1, 205, 206, 212, 214, 222, 230, 407, 412,

427, 429, 430, 505
