Visit the Smart Maintenance Demo Zone \u2013 discover the future of maintenance<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In the Smart Maintenance Demo Zone, you can experience how smart technology makes maintenance smarter, safer and more efficient. With solutions from <\/span>XiniX AI<\/span><\/b>,\u00a0<\/span>Sorama<\/span><\/b>\u00a0and\u00a0 <\/span>Lay3rs<\/span><\/b>, you will discover how inspection, detection and repair come together in one practical maintenance story.<\/span><\/p>\n

From AI-driven inspections in complex and hard-to-reach installations to the early detection of leaks using acoustic technology and the rapid production of replacement parts using 3D scanning and 3D printing. The demos show how downtime is prevented, energy loss is limited and maintenance becomes more predictable. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Do not miss this demo zone and experience live what smart maintenance looks like in practice.<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Every maintenance manager recognises the moment when something is not right. A system sounds different, energy consumption increases, but the cause remains invisible. With acoustic inspection, Sorama makes that moment earlier and more concrete.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Our acoustic cameras make audible and ultrasonic sound visible. This gives maintenance teams immediate insight into leaks and mechanical abnormalities, without downtime and without physical risk. During Maintenance Antwerp, we will demonstrate how to locate even very small compressed air and gas leaks, even in potentially explosive environments.<\/p>\n

In combination with Boston Dynamics’ SPOT inspection robot, inspections are moving to places that are difficult to reach or unsafe for humans. Our demo wall shows how an invisible leak becomes visible within seconds and how inspection shifts from searching to targeted intervention.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Sorama supports maintenance managers in limiting energy loss, preventing unexpected downtime and ensuring reliable operation of installations, even under harsh conditions.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Sprout is a soft robot that grows like a plant and is designed for inspections in confined, complex and hard-to-reach environments. With a base diameter of 8 cm, it can squeeze through openings as small as 5 cm and offers full 3D mobility, including vertical climbing and working against gravity.<\/p>\n

Sprout is completely flexible, can bend in any direction and navigate 90-degree turns, winding paths and irregular geometries. It can be extended hundreds of metres, enabling in-depth inspections without dismantling or shutdown. The load capacity is proportional to the diameter: the 8 cm version supports up to 500 grams, while variants with a larger diameter can carry heavier tools.<\/p>\n

All inspection data is processed via XiniX Forge, a platform that seamlessly integrates advanced AI capabilities into existing workflows and databases. Using pre-trained and customisable AI models, XiniX Forge automatically detects defects such as cracks, corrosion and weld anomalies, generates statistics and produces automated inspection reports. An LLM-powered interface enables users to query results and retrieve insights in a conversational manner, supporting rapid, data-driven assessment of asset condition.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
