A new project led by Rolls-Royce with support from the ATI Programme, comprises 20 technologies that promise to reduce disruption for airlines and lessen the environmental impact by repairing components rather than scrapping them. The technologies include: snake robots which travel inside jet engines to access complex parts, enabling repairs which are not possible with today’s tools; engine sensors which send data from the sky and allow Rolls-Royce to better predict when engines need maintenance; inspection and analysis tools to inspect parts buried deep within engines while they are being repaired; and advanced automated repair technologies targeting parts which cannot
