If surfaces could speak, they would report it.

Smart varnish detects damage – in real-time.

The AIVAM Smart Varnish turns passive surfaces into active sources of information. As soon as a painted surface is scratched, cut, or dented, the integrated sensor system immediately registers the change.

The damage is automatically:

  • detected
  • located
  • digitally documented transmitted to the AIVAM Damage Management Portal or the app

The owner or operator is immediately informed.

How it works

Sensory Detection

Micro-sensor structures in the varnish react to physical changes on the surface.

Signal Processing

The impulse is converted into a digital signal.

Automatic Reporting

The damage is transferred to the AIVAM Portal – including timestamp and position data.

Transparent Documentation

Every incident is stored and can be accessed anytime via app or web.

Why this is crucial

Undetected damage leads to:

  • Corrosion
  • Material fatigue
  • Safety risks
  • Unnecessary repair costs
  • Unplanned downtimes

AIVAM detects the damage before it becomes a problem.

Example: Wind Turbines

A wind turbine is constantly exposed to extreme stresses: Weather, erosion, bird strikes, transport or maintenance damage.

A small, undetected crack can:

  • Affect aerodynamics
  • Increase material damage
  • Cause high repair costs
  • Extend downtimes

With AIVAM:

  • Every surface damage is reported immediately
  • The operator receives a digital damage file
  • Maintenance can be condition-based instead of interval-based
  • Inspection costs are reduced

This means: More safety. More efficiency. More availability.

Suitable for which industries?

  • Renewable Energy
  • Aviation
  • Automotive
  • Infrastructure
  • Marine
  • Mechanical Engineering

Everywhere surfaces are safety or value-relevant.

Damage Management Portal

All detected damages converge in a central system:

  • Overview of all assets
  • Damage history
  • Analysis functions
  • Exportable reports
  • Mobile app access
  • Integration into existing maintenance platforms

AIVAM turns reactive maintenance into a data-driven system.
