8tree has announced that its dentCHECK solution has helped Swiss International Air Lines (SWISS) streamline dent-mapping workflow efficiency. The solution has already aided Austrian Airlines, Endeavor Air, and Boeing, and is now an integral part of SWISS’ maintenance processes. Not only does dentCHECK help with damage mapping workflows, but it also reduces aircraft Turn-Around-Times (TaT).

“dentCHECK from 8tree has proven to be a highly useful tool for SWISS, significantly streamlining our daily operations,” said Claus Bauer, Head of Technical Fleet Management at SWISS. “Its ability to automatically generate detailed, professional reports ensures we have all the critical information at hand. In the aviation industry, where time is crucial for maintaining both punctuality and safety, this specialised solution offers us a distinct advantage. We are highly impressed with its performance and the efficiency it brings to our workflow.”

Key features of the dentCHECK solution:

  • A hand-held, portable, wireless 3D scanner tool.
  • Integrated with AR, the solution provides instant, actionable measurements for critical airframe damage.
  • Purpose-built for aviation maintenance applications and is recognised by all major aerospace OEMs.
  • Enables drone and robotic automation cell integration.
  • Works by mapping aircraft damage and then creating detailed, SRM-compliant digital damage reports.
  • Boosts consistency (18x), accuracy (20x), and efficiency (90% time-savings) while reducing human subjectivity compared to traditional methods.

Leonard Buck, Marketing & Business Development Manager, 8tree, added, “We are delighted to welcome SWISS as yet another Lufthansa Group member to the growing base of dentCHECK users. Swiss International Air Lines joins a growing community of more than three dozen airlines, MROs, and OEMs who rely on dentCHECK for end-to-end digitalised 1-click 3D dent-mapping. We’re looking forward to empowering the mechanics and engineers at SWISS maintenance operations.”
