2nd Generation AVCS Configuration on ALH
AVCS CONSISTS OF :• BIAXIAL FORCE GENERATORS (2 CIRCULAR FORCE GENERATOR)
• SENSORS (ACCELEROMETERS)
• SYSTEM CONTROLLER
• WIRING HARNESS
• POWER SUPPLY
BENEFITS:• Reduced system weight (55 Kg as against 80 Kg)• Improved performance• Expandable• Fault tolerant • Reliability and Robustness to EMI
Inorder to achieve ‘global’ vibration reduction on the structure covering the floor, side wall and roof, 2nd generation AVCS comprising biaxial (planar) actuators, controller and sensors were tested on DS-42 with prototype units.

Vibration Monitoring System (VMS) for ALH VMS – Advanced vibration monitoring technique to perform aircraft diagnostics and
prognostics based on the previous vibration signatures of the aircraft.
BENEFITS:
• Improve safety • Avoid secondary damage • Reduce maintenance expenditure • Optimize maintenance tasks • Reduce down time of the helicopter • Increase meantime between maintenance • Minimize replacement of major components• Change from time based maintenance routines to
condition based maintenance
VMS CONSISTS OF :
On board systems - Sensors to acquire vibration - Optical tracker - Vibration Monitoring Unit (VMU) - Storage Device
Ground based systems - Algorithm to process and analyze the data - Report generation and release of advisory
circulars - Real time web connectivity to ALH user bases

Creation of Helicopter Complex at HAL
A separate Complex for Helicopter Business under a new Managing Director is being created.
Would facilitate focused attention on new Businesses.
Business Volumes for Helicopter Complex are comparable to other Complexes of HAL.
Would result in Better Supply Chain Management.
Would result in Optimum capacity utilisation.
