JAL Engineering and Ascalabo began operating a maintenance information platform that utilizes three-dimensional models of aircraft on March 19.
The new system recreates the maintenance environment in virtual space by combining three-dimensional models of aircraft with 360-degree camera images, enabling maintenance engineers to intuitively identify target areas from tablet devices or computers while quickly accessing the quality information, technical documents, and safety information required for their work. By combining Ascalabo’s strength in three-dimensional architecture design with the accumulated maintenance expertise of JAL Engineering, the platform serves as Japan’s first maintenance information infrastructure in the aviation industry.
By centralizing access to information that had previously been scattered, the system allows maintenance engineers to easily check the information they need before starting work, reducing the time spent searching and enabling them to focus more on understanding the content and preparing for tasks. During pre-maintenance briefings, 360-degree camera images can be used to visually share the situation at the worksite, helping to enhance safety checks and hazard prediction activities.
The companies state that they will continue to advance the development of new mechanisms that combine the knowledge gained from aircraft maintenance in Japan with digital technologies, contributing to safer flight operations and improved maintenance quality.
