FLARE is a project utilising continuum robot capability developed by the University of Nottingham, and incorporating miniaturised flame spray equipment from Metallisation. There is significant market desire to create a device that can perform in-situ / on-wing patch repair of flame sprayed coatings without dismantling high value infrastructure e.g. aircraft jet engines. It is costly and time consuming for maintenance and overhaul activities to be completed whilst the engine is removed, it is more attractive to Rolls-Royce, airline customers and the technology supply chain to be able to perform more services with the engine still intact and attached to the aircraft.

FLARE是一个利用诺丁汉大学开发的连续机器人能力的项目，并结合了Metallisation的小型化火焰喷涂设备。市场迫切希望创造一种设备，可以在不拆卸高价值基础设施（如飞机喷气发动机）的情况下，对火焰喷涂涂层进行原位/机翼修补。当发动机被移除时，维护和大修活动是昂贵和耗时的，对于劳斯莱斯、航空公司客户和技术供应链来说，能够在发动机完好无损的情况下执行更多服务更具吸引力。
