History
In the early 1990s, ACES Systems launched the beginning of the Model 1000 propeller balancing product line. We originally released the ACES Systems Model 1000 Analyzer Series in the early 1990s, continued its evolution up to the Model 1012, and then ceased production in 2002 as the next generation of ACES products were introduced.
Support & Service Obsolescence
At its introduction, the ACES Systems Model 1000 was full of new technology and capabilities. As with all things electronic, time and technology quickly bring new features to market. The advent of newer technology makes it difficult to obtain repair parts to maintain serviceability and support of the ACES Systems Model 1000, 1001, and 1012.
It is with regret, in light of over 30 years of service that we have to inform you of ACES Systems’ plans to phase out support and service for the Model 1000, 1001, and 1012 Analyzers. The table below becomes effective September 1, 2018 and indicates the support and service available through December 31, 2018 and up to September 1, 2019.
