Acellent’s integrated Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) system is comprised of three major components: SMART Layer® sensors, diagnostic hardware, and analytics software. A variety of SHM system configurations are available that work in "passive" listening mode, "active" interrogation mode, and even a combined "passive-active" mode. We provide an end-to-end solution for monitoring the integrity and condition of metal and composite structures across diverse industries.
SMART Layer® Sensors
The SMART Layer® is our proprietary sensor appliqué, designed to be permanently mounted to any structure. It consists of a network of distributed sensors of various types, embedded in a thin carrier film, with integrated wiring and connectors. Standard and custom designs are available. Whether you're retrofitting an existing structure or integrating it into a new one, installation couldn't be simpler.
Hardware
Purpose-built data-acquisition (DAQ) hardware interfaces with our SMART Layer® sensors to generate and capture diagnostic signals with maximum fidelity. We offer a variety of standard models with different capabilities, channel counts, and deployment methods (on-board and off-board). We can also work with you to develop fully custom designs with novel capabilities.
Software
Our exclusive suite of software is tightly integrated with our hardware, simplifying the process of data acquisition, diagnostics, and monitoring. The software incorporates advanced proprietary algorithms for event localization, quantification, and prognostics, all in a user-friendly and easy-to-use package. Different editions and licenses are available to fit your specific use-case and budget.
Training
Get hands-on training in the theory and practice of Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) from the industry leader. Learn how to install, configure, operate, calibrate, and even optimize the performance of the system directly from the experts. Multiple levels of training (ranging from introductory to advanced) are offered in order to meet your individual needs.
