GemDT Unveils AeroVision: A Revolutionary AI-Driven

Inspection System Cutting Turbine Blade MRO Time

from Hours to Minutes

[LONDON, UK] – October 30, 2025 – GemDT today announced the launch of AeroVision,

a ground-breaking, AI-powered turbine blade inspection system set to redefine quality

assurance and maintenance turnaround times across the aerospace manufacturing and

Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) sectors.

AeroVision utilises a proprietary combination of high-speed 3D optical scanning and

advanced Digital Twin technology, enabling manufacturers and MRO facilities to conduct

non-contact, sub-micron level inspections of critical turbine components with unprecedented

speed and accuracy.

Eliminating Bottlenecks in Manufacturing and MRO

Traditional inspection methods for turbine blades, which are highly complex parts essential to

jet engine performance and safety, are often manual, time-consuming, and subject to human

variability. AeroVision dramatically accelerates this critical process:

 Speed: Reduces the complete blade inspection cycle time from several hours to under

five minutes per blade, enabling true high-volume throughput.

 Precision: Achieves measurement accuracy down to the single-micron level,

automatically identifying defects, erosion, and material degradation undetectable by

conventional methods.

 Digital Twin Integration: Automatically compares scanned geometry against a

certified Digital Twin model, providing immediate, actionable pass/fail decisions and

comprehensive reports essential for regulatory compliance.

 AI-Driven Diagnostics: Machine learning algorithms continually learn from

inspection data to predict common failure modes and recommend optimal repair or

replacement strategies.

“The demands on the aerospace industry for efficiency and absolute safety are constantly

growing. AeroVision is not just an upgrade; it is a fundamental shift in how turbine blade

integrity is managed,” said Steve Fletcher, CTO of GemDT. “By integrating AI into a rapid

3D inspection platform, we are giving our clients the ability to drastically reduce aircraft on

ground (AOG) time, lower operational costs, and elevate the reliability standards of every

engine component they touch.”

Immediate Impact on Industry

For Manufacturing, AeroVision ensures zero-defect output and enables tighter process

control by providing instant feedback on dimensional variations. In MRO, the system

provides a robust and rapid diagnostic tool for assessing damage from foreign object debris

(FOD), corrosion, and creep, accelerating the repair planning phase and returning aircraft to

service faster.
