Emirates has signed an agreement with Airbus for the implementation of its Skywise Fleet Performance+ advanced predictive maintenance and fleet health monitoring solution, along with its Core X3 analytics platform.
The technology is set to further enhance aircraft dispatch reliability while enabling strategic data-driven decision-making for the airline’s fleet of A380 and A350 aircraft.
It also features automated pre-departure monitoring of cabin temperatures, operations, and key systems, powered by advanced analytics.
With this system, Emirates Engineering teams will be able to monitor real-time aircraft performance and health data, identify potential issues inflight, and determine maintenance actions during turnarounds.
“Adopting Airbus’s Skywise Fleet Performance+ is a step forward to support our Airbus fleet, harnessing the latest advancements, and transforming traditional maintenance activities into streamlined, precision led processes that optimise our time in the skies,” said Ahmed Safa, head of emirates engineering
In addition to leveraging predictive maintenance technologies, Emirates Engineering is also looking to use virtual and augmented reality for maintenance tasks.
