Reliable Measurements
Precision Performance
First Time, Every Time

The Aerospace and Defense industry pushes test and measurement to it's very limits. The cost of testing is high, but the cost of failure even higher. The need to acquire accurate data right the first time, every time, puts extreme demands on test engineers to use instrumentation that ensures data integrity and data reliability. The functional testing of complex systems requires flexible automated test systems that can be adapted for a variety of LRUs.

VTI delivers data acquisition, monitoring and control solutions that test the most complex test structures and electronics in the world.

Obsolescence Management – A Commitment to Longevity

Committing to production and support cycles that last 15 years and beyond is a commonplace requirement for defense and aerospace applications where obsolete hardware can force costly redesigns.

VTI Instruments has a proven track record of successful installations in test systems that were designed over ten years ago and are still in production. In fact, the first product we brought to market in 1990 is still in production today.

Our instrumentation and switching have been consistently upgraded over the years to phase out obsolete components while maintaining backward compatibility. Therefore, our customers are confident that their system designs today will still be viable years from now.

Modular, Scalable and Open

Applications like testing gas turbine engines and avionics are extremely complex and often require instrumentation from multiple suppliers. This is especially true with niche devices such as communication bus analyzers and power supplies.

VTI is committed to delivering solutions that conform to modular open architecture standards such as LXI, VXI and VME. You can be assured that our instruments will integrate seamlessly in your test system.

Our focus on data integrity and reliability has made VTI Instruments a mainstay in the aerospace/defense industry for two decades in a wide range of applications that include:

  • APU test cells
  • Jet engine test cells
  • Military aircraft
  • Commercial aircraft
  • Spacecraft/satellite
  • Launch vehicles
  • Rocket motor testing
  • Government R&D
  • Avionics and complex electronics
  • Cable harnesses
  • Missiles
  • Ships/submarines
  • Radar
  • Military vehicles
