How is automation transforming global engine maintenance?
As global air travel accelerates toward an expected 7 billion passengers by 2035, the demand for faster, smarter and more efficient aircraft engine maintenance is rising across the aviation industry. At Pratt & Whitney, automation, robotics and Industry 4.0 technologies are reshaping how we operate – allowing technicians to focus on high-value work while modern systems take on repetitive tasks. In this video, Gilbert Sim, director of Pratt & Whitney Aftermarket Operations, shares how his team is modernizing maintenance, repair and overhaul, reducing manual hours and scaling innovation across the RTX network to meet the needs of the future.
“I strongly believe that people, together with the latest kind of technologies that we're seeing across the world, will really form the whole ecosystem to bring the company to the next level.”
