MicroWire sensors can be embedded into various materials such as composites, metals, and glass. Each sensor weighs less than 1 gram, even when up to 100,000 sensors are deployed, maintaining the aircraft’s performance and fuel efficiency. With a lifespan exceeding 1,000 years, the technology is robust enough to withstand the extreme mechanical, environmental, and chemical conditions.
RVmagnetics' MicroWire sensing technology offers an innovative solution for non-invasive monitoring of composite manufacturing processes and manufactured aircraft components. The multi-functionality of the MicroWire enables numerous sensing capabilities, including measuring resin arrival, monitoring straining, solidification, and localised temperatures in various components – wings, propellers, structural components, and pressure vessels.
RVmagnetics has vast experience measuring structural integrity and composite defects like delamination. After defect detection, the added value represents the monitoring of the reparation process – laser welding, or induction welding.
Our sensors offer versatile sensing capabilities for a wide range of components, enabling precise monitoring of critical parameters. Their adaptability ensures reliable performance even in extreme environments where conventional sensors fail.
