Providing a towable scissor lift for Aircraft Engine Maintenance
Challenges
- We were approached by an organization for helping them to improve aircraft engine testing
- They needed a solution which could help them in reaching engines & work at height
- It had to be capable of allowing two personnel to work at any given time & sturdy enough for being safe & not damage the very expensive aircraft engines
- They also needed the solution to be movable for ease of use
Solution
- Nandan provided a towable scissor lift with a load capacity of 350kg
- A working height of 7m was given for their height access requirements
- The scissor lift was towable in nature to make the movement of personnel much easier
- Use of high tensile steel for the equipment to be extremely sturdy for safety
Results
- Ease of access to reach the engines
- Increase in safety due to the sturdiness of the scissor lift
- Capability of two people to work together on the aircraft engine at the same time
- Faster maintenance schedules due to ease of use
