By embedding RVmagnetics MicroWire technology to the composite - precise measurements of e.g. temperature in of each layer can be obtained during the composite decking process. Allows one to distinguish whether the delamination or cracks occur during or after the decking process of layers inside composites. For the manufacturers RVmagnetics technology allows the production of the same quality composite with less material costs (layers and epoxides).
Smart composite also enables its user to real-time monitor the condition and performance of equipment during the operation (structural health monitoring) and helps to reduce the likelihood of material failure. It attempts to keep low costs by reducing the frequency of maintenance tasks, reducing preventive and reactive maintenance with the predictive one.
A smart composite also enables its user to monitor the condition and performance of equipment in real-time during operation and helps reduce the likelihood of material failure. It aims to keep costs low by decreasing the frequency of maintenance tasks and replacing preventive and reactive maintenance with predictive maintenance.

Continuous monitoring, which delivers precise data, not only aids in identifying real-time material properties but also supports maintenance planning, optimizes reverse logistics, and reduces the risk of future disasters.
MicroWire technology offers SHM for a wide range of materials, including various composites, reinforced concrete and others. It delivers accurate, real-time data from otherwise inaccessible areas, such as within the different layers of a composite. Whether a material flaw arises from vibration, pressure, or temperature, MicroWire technology helps prevent further damage and, in the event of failure, pinpoints the root cause with precision.
