Structural Monitoring Systems Plc (ASX:SMN)

FAA approved structural health monitoring systems to slash aircraft maintenance costs.

About Us

Structural Monitoring Systems is engaged in the development and commercialisation of its CVM™ sensor technology. Our sensors are designed as a replacement to existing non-destructive inspection (NDI) techniques to streamline identifying and/or monitoring cracks in metal structures, and can be operated as an “early warning system”.

Company Overview

Structural Monitoring Systems Plc is at the forefront of technological innovation in structural health monitoring, particularly in the aviation sector. Their groundbreaking CVM™ (Comparative Vacuum Monitoring) sensor technology is gaining traction for its ability to significantly reduce the frequency and cost associated with traditional aircraft maintenance inspections. In 2022, the company marked a milestone by receiving FAA approval for their technology to be used in the inspection of Wi-Fi antenna support structures on Boeing 737-800 aircraft. This approval not only underscores the technology's reliability and effectiveness but also sets the stage for broader adoption in aviation and other industries where structural integrity is critical.

The adoption of CVM™ technology allows for inspections to be conducted quickly and efficiently without the need to disassemble the aircraft, a process that typically requires significant time and resources. By integrating these sensors, Structural Monitoring Systems enables airlines to conduct real-time, in-situ inspections that streamline maintenance operations and enhance safety. This innovation represents a significant shift from traditional methods, promoting a more proactive approach to maintenance that can prevent failures before they occur.
