General Electric (GE) - Utilizing AI to predict maintenance and prevent problems

GE’s Bengaluru-based John F Welch Technology Centre has developed an AI-driven predictive maintenance system for jet engines. The system, utilizing a ‘Digital Twin’ and image analytics, aims to reduce unscheduled engine removals by one-third. The Centre, which has been instrumental in developing engines like the LEAP and GE9X, is also pioneering 3D printing and foam wash technologies for improved engine efficiency and longevity.
