Cincinnati, OH and Huerth, Germany / Skaneateles, NY – Monday, October 28, 2024 - GE Aerospace and Waygate Technologies, a Baker Hughes business, announced they have jointly developed a new, AI-assisted commercial engine borescope solution that will be available to Waygate Technologies customers and introduced to GE Aerospace's MRO network later this year. The development represents the successful completion of their first development program under a Joint Technology Development Agreement between the two companies announced in May of 2023.
辛辛那提, 俄亥俄州和德国胡尔特/纽约州斯卡尼亚提勒斯 – 2024年10月28日星期一 - GE航空航天和Baker Hughes旗下的Waygate Technologies宣布,他们联合开发了一款新的,受人工智能辅助的商用发动机内窥镜解决方案,将提供给Waygate Technologies的客户,并将在今年晚些时候引入GE航空航天的MRO网络。 这一开发代表着他们在2023年5月宣布的两家公司之间的联合技术开发协议下的第一个开发计划的成功完成。
As part of the this first program, GE Aerospace and Waygate Technologies focused on enhancing machine vision-based assisted defect recognition (ADR) systems using AI for commercial aviation engine borescope inspections. Specifically, High Pressure Compressor (HPC) inspections were targeted, as these are one of the most critical and time-consuming tasks in the engine Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) process.
作为该第一个计划的一部分,GE航空航天和Waygate Technologies专注于利用人工智能增强的机器视觉辅助缺陷识别(ADR)系统,用于商用航空发动机内窥镜检查。 具体而言,他们着眼于高压压缩机(HPC)检查,因为这些是发动机维护、修理和检修(MRO)过程中最关键和耗时最长的任务之一。
"At GE Aerospace, we increasingly are seeing the value AI technologies are bringing to help improve the speed, accuracy, and reliability of commercial jet engine inspections," said Nicole Jenkins, Chief MRO Engineer, GE Aerospace. "Collaborating with Waygate Technologies, we have successfully combined our industry domain knowledge and digital expertise to integrate new AI techniques with the right data to improve the detection capabilities of commercial engine borescope inspections."
“在GE航空航天,我们越来越看到人工智能技术为帮助改善商用喷气发动机检查的速度、准确性和可靠性所带来的价值,” GE航空航天首席MRO工程师Nicole Jenkins说。 “与Waygate Technologies合作,我们成功地结合了我们的行业领域知识和数字专业知识,将新的人工智能技术与合适的数据整合在一起,改善商用发动机内窥镜检查的检测能力。”
Jenkins noted that once the new AI-assisted borescope solution is deployed to its MRO shops, it will be used to perform HPC inspections for its GEnx and CFM LEAP* engines.
Jenkins指出,一旦新的人工智能辅助视频内窥镜方案部署到其MRO店铺,将用于对其GEnx和祥发LEAP*引擎进行HPC检查。
