Looking at Health & Usage Monitoring Systems and considering the Honeywell VXP?
Honeywell (formerly Chadwick-Helmuth) HUMS & TEST products are offered through Diagnostic Solutions International (DSI).
We invite you to get in touch with us below to learn more about how the systems compare. Below we’ve provided some useful points of differentiation we think are key to ensuring operator value.
| Feature / Benefit | GPMS’s Foresight | Honeywell VXP |
| Sustainability | STC certifications, DO 160 testing, and MEMS accelerometers ensure rugged, compliant, and highly sustainable onboard system | Call to discuss |
| Weight & Installation Time | Bused kit architecture (vs star architecture) reduces wire and overall onboard weight and speeds installation time | Call to discuss |
| Data Acquisition & Transfer | Onboard regime recognition automates acquisitions; data on the aircraft is transferred automatically (not manually) to software via WiFi/cellular | Call to discuss |
| System Availability | Cloud system architecture w/ browser based software ensures access from anywhere, any device (PC, phone, tablet) rather than a single local PC | Call to discuss |
| Usability | Modern, intuitive software interface, color coding, and normative scales mean all members of your team can use HUMS, not just experts and outside consultants | Call to discuss |
| Functionality | Foresight provides rotor track & balance, flight data w/ exceedance monitoring, and engine performance in addition to mechanical system vibration monitoring | Call to discuss |
| Specificity & Accuracy | Distributed sensor-level processing, high resonance bracketry, and advanced algorithms yields 7x fault detection vs. legacy systems | Call to discuss |
| Prognostics | Advanced software provides a true predictive model with component Remaining Useful Life estimates allowing you to optimize assets and better plan maintenance windows | Call to discuss |
| Integrations | Cloud-enabled APIs and export buttons enable Foresight data to be easily integrated into maintenance and safety systems or exported for simulator replay | Call to discuss |
| Validation & Self Monitoring | Drill-down capability for raw signal viewing together with sensor monitoring and fleet comparison views enable fault validation and system monitoring | Call to discuss |
| Updatability & Scalability | Wireless connectivity, cloud architecture, and an update-over-the-air capability ensures bugs will be fixed and improvements made. Onboard hardware is modular with expansion capability for more features. | Call to discuss |
| Pricing & Support Model | In contrast to transactional hardware sale, GPMS’s HUMS-as-a-Service business model ensures long term partnership, lower up front cost, continued product development and support excellence | Call to discuss |
