ENGINE STAND REFURBISHMENT, REPAIR AND MODIFICATION
The aerospace industry is booming. A total of 46,460 aircraft worth $ 3.1 trillion are forecast to be delivered between 2018 and 2037. 65% of these will be single-aisle aircraft. Especially the medium-haul aircrafts will be in high demand. This implies that the amount of sold engines will also increase rapidly. The engine of an airplane is one of the most expensive parts. That’s why it is so important to guarantee a safe and protected delivery from A to B. The delivery of an engine goes hand in hand with 100% functional engine transportation stands. This is where the services of HYDRO comes in to play.
Imagine: An engine needs to be delivered to the customer. It is loaded on a dirty, old looking and damaged engine transportation stand. In addition to being unprofessional to deliver such an expensive good as an engine on a destroyed and dirty engine transportation stand, it is also absolutely unsafe. The engine could sustain damage. We take care of each engine transportation stand before delivery of an engine. At two branches, in Great Britain and Singapore, specialists are especially trained and educated for the engine stand refurbishment, repair and modification. Only meticulous inspections carried out before delivery can guarantee a safe transport.
This service is not only offered at our branches. Our specialists work on site directly with the customer. Damages will be repaired. The engine stands are carefully inspected. Any inconsistencies will be discovered and eradicated.

Process in detail

The added value of this process is easy. A refurbished, repaired or modified engine stand can be delivered very fast. The challenge? The ability to respond quickly on short notice. An urgent request in case of a breakdown call needs fast reactions.
The first step in the process is the inspection. Our experts check the engine stand carefully. Any damages, rust spots, missing screws or even dents will be noted. A full assessment of the current state will be done. Then the engine stand will be proofed on our proof load. Either at the HYDRO site or on site at the customers spot with our mobile proof-load equipment.
