THE INDUSTRY & COMPANY

The Navy performs routine maintenance procedures on aircraft carriers

Aircrafts used in the Navy require continuous and regularly scheduled maintenance, typically done on aircraft carriers. During these support periods, a variety of tests are performed on various aircraft systems. These checks keep aircraft and aviation equipment in top working order, making them vital to both safety and operational readiness for these military fleets.

THE CHALLENGE & PAIN POINTS

Exposure to rain causes “ghost touch” on device screens that may trigger dangerous events

Since these maintenance procedures are typically conducted on aircraft carriers or land-based flightlines, the environment is open-air and exposed to all kinds of weather and climate. The devices that act as the main tools for maintenance checks must be fully operational in any condition—in rain, extreme temperatures, or even the direct heat or brightness of the sun. Off-the-shelf devices have sensitive capacitive touch screens that are susceptible to registering phantom inputs from rain, making them highly dangerous to use in these environments. The fear is that this “ghost touch” could potentially trigger an accidental engine startup or a similarly damaging, unintentional event.

THE TAILORED SOLUTION

Adding an all-weather single-touch resistive screen to a proven rugged solution

Getac integrated a single-touch resistive touchscreen and a new LCD plastic cover onto the B360 rugged laptop. Resistive touchscreens are less sensitive than capacitive touch screens, allowing them to perform better in rain and ignore phantom inputs while still responding to finger, stylus, or glove inputs seamlessly. Apart from this use-specific customization, the B360 model already has a rugged build that withstands water, dust, shock, vibration, and therefore allows it to perform in any type of weather, temperature, or extreme climate. That, along with the high-capacity battery life, sunlight-readable display, and light-weight portability, make for a solution tailor-made for Navy aircraft maintenance.

THE RESULTS & BENEFITS

Increased safety and efficiency for high-risk maintenance work

The weather-resistant custom screen fitted onto the B360 successfully reduced uncontrolled input from rain, leading to a lower threat of accidents occuring in an environment as high-risk as an aircraft carrier. In this case, the Navy was able to maintain the core functionality of the tools being used for aircraft maintenance tasks while adding a better and safer user experience around the touchscreen. This functionality allows the users to do their work without interruption and maintain their operational efficiency regardless of the unpredictable weather conditions they will undoubtedly face on the job.

Here’s what our customers have to say:

"Our field crews have most definitely put these devices to the test. From dirty and damp working conditions to tossing the unit around on the job, we have pushed our devices to their limit over the last eight years and, all I can say is, Getac delivers on their product.” - John Sanchez
Water Distribution Superintendent, San Gabriel Valley Water Company
“We have been working with Getac notebooks for over five years, and one aspect we consider most important is the brand's reliability. Despite intensive daily use, we have not encountered any failures or breakdowns in recent years. This has allowed us to provide continuity of service to our customers. For us, customer satisfaction is a top priority. Reducing the processing time means offering an excellent tailored service, which saves on invoice costs; a not insignificant aspect that builds customer loyalty.” - Igor Boldrini
Head Technician of Truck Training Centre Italy
“Implementing the UX10 has taken a complex part of our solution and made it much simpler. The controller interface is now COTS across the board, making it easy to build and maintain, while offering both signifi cant cost savings and increased reliability in the long run.” - Padraig O’Connor
Managing Director of Reamda
“Without the Getac K120, our speed and precision in production and warehouse would hardly be feasible. With Getac's tablets, we can take our already highly digitalized processes to a new and even higher level.” - Florian Sietzy
