Testek Solutions introduces ADAS 2.0: the next generation of automated aircraft hydraulic component testing

Testek Solutions today announced the launch of ADAS 2.0, the latest generation of its industry-trusted Automatic Data Acquisition System (ADAS). Designed to support the evolving needs of both maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) operations and commercial production environments, ADAS 2.0 is a modern, high-speed data acquisition and control platform built for hydraulic component testing.

The ADAS 2.0 platform combines advanced FPGA-based control, PC-based data acquisition hardware, and Testek's proven test automation software, enabling operators to test a wider range of aircraft components with greater speed and precision.

"ADAS has been an industry standard for decades," said Todd Meredith, Senior Vice President, Sales and Marketing at Testek. "ADAS 2.0 represents a complete modernization of this sophisticated test platform, giving our customers a faster, more flexible system that supports next-generation aircraft technologies while protecting the investments they've already made in their existing test infrastructure."

Key capabilities of ADAS 2.0 include:

- Faster data acquisition and processing to reduce test time and increase throughput

- Configurable FPGA-based control for greater flexibility across component types and test requirements

- Expanded support for modern communication protocols and next-generation aircraft components

- A seamless upgrade path to modernizing existing ADAS systems without disrupting operations while also minimizing operator retraining and avoiding costly overhauls

Designed with flexibility in mind, the system's configurable FPGA-based architecture allows users to adapt test parameters and expand capabilities as requirements evolve. Additionally, since the platform is built on a modern Windows 11 platform and aligned with current Department of Defense cybersecurity standards, ADAS 2.0 helps organizations meet compliance requirements while improving long-term system reliability.
