Winner of the DoD's Manufacturing Achievement Award, Edare's Fastener Measurement Tool was developed in collaboration with Navy, Airforce, and industry partners to bring laboratory-grade aerospace fastener inspections at scale to high-volume production and MRO operations. 

Handheld, portable, and designed to be used with minimal training, the FMT3 integrates seamlessly into existing manufacturing and maintenance environments. 

It returns rapid, objective, pass/fail evaluations of OML countersinks and fasteners based on dense 3D scan data and advanced, full automated algorithms.

Gage R&R validated performance with RMS accuracy typically better than 0.0003" (7-8 micron), the FMT3 delivers quality improvements, reduces costs, and accelerates throughput.

With a 50% touch labor reduction, FMT's impact on aerospace manufacturing has led to over $13M+ in lifecycle cost savings (fastener inspection on F-35 platform).

The HGU-99/P helmet system protects the hearing of aircraft maintenance crews and shipboard flight deck personnel, enabling them to work safely in high-pressure environments where situational awareness and face-to-face communication are essential. The system, developed by Edare's research and development partner, Creare, employs a multi-layered passive protection architecture that significantly improves performance compared to earlier-generation solutions. 

In addition to high-attenuation earplugs and precision-engineered ear cups, the helmet features an acoustically isolating outer shell that also provides robust impact protection. 

Integrated electronic ambient-sound technology allows users to perceive their surroundings naturally while remaining within safe exposure limits. 

The system connects seamlessly with deck radios, ship communication lines, and aircraft intercom networks, keeping crews alert, aware, and protected at all times.
