MHE-Demag Singapore Successful Installation in Singapore Aero Engine Services

MHE-Demag Singapore recently has successfully installed inline suspension crane system for the test cell facility in SAESL (Singapore Aero Engine Services Pte Ltd). SAESL, which is a joint venture between Rolls-Royce, Hong Kong Aero Engine Services Limited and SIA Engineering Company, is a Trent Center of Excellence that specializes in the repair and overhaul of Rolls Royce Trent aero engine family.

SAESL needed a handling solution to transfer the aircraft engines from incoming trailer to specific work stations for further diagnosis, examination, maintenance, repair and overhaul. Understanding that, we supply one unit of 35 tonnes, span 15m in-line gantry, twin hoists with capacity of 17.5 tonnes each and one unit of 4.3 tonnes lift table, deck size 8 x 14m, where the crane was specially designed to carry aircraft engines with load up to 18 tonnes with almost 2 times safety factor. The in-line suspension system has a unique feature, where it could allow aircraft engines to be transferred from one work stations to other work stations across the facility without touching the floor. This provision is made possible by installing an item called latching device, where both in-line suspension cranes will be parked in one straight line and in between these two cranes there is this latching device, which facilitates the hoisting trolley to move over from one crane girder to another.

We are glad to be able to provide the solution for SAESL and MHE-Demag will continue to do our upmost best to support SAESL in all aspects of their lifting needs!
