• Single Piece Flow Shot Peening Systems
  Many manufacturing systems utilize single piece flow techniques to minimize inventory and product float. This article describes how one turbine engine manufacturer has integrated a number of small peening cells to help achieve this goal. This article first appeared in Metal Finishing News. Single...
• Standardization in Coating Evaluation: A Universal System for Repair Coatings (.pdf)
  With the many Original Equipment Manufacturer's (OEM's) criteria for evaluation of thermal spray materials, laboratories are forced to have multiple criteria/systems to test and analyze coatings. As airlines/repair shops are moving towards overhaul of more variable engine types/models...
• ARMEX Blast Media and the Accustrip System ...Just the Ticket for Locomotive Depainting
  injection system. These parts are already high wear items and the impact of a harsh abrasive could alter the flow of fuel through the injector. Moreover, concern was expressed toward the possibility of remaining media migrating throughout the engine. Hard media, such as glass beads are known to form...
• Plasma Systems Save Time and Money in Pipeline Construction
  . "Before plasma, I had to use a grinder to access the repair area. That generally took 45 minutes or more of hand grinding. But now that I'm using a Powermax45 plasma system, I can gouge down to the repair area in a third of the time.". Hypertherm plasma systems, like the Powermax unit Glaze used, can...
• Cutting Tool Manufacturer Penetrates New Markets
  a number of specialty markets," Ameduri explains. "These include blades for eye surgery, film cutting, and newer aerospace niches. Right now, we are supplying engine parts for military aircraft and are helping to produce wheels for NASA space shuttles.". With Mitsubishi's support and performance...
• Southwest Turbine: Innovative Customer Service Through Integrated Manufacturing Technology
  for this accreditation, termed "Federal Aviation Regulation (FAR) Part 21", and only when this occurred could Southwest Turbine begin design and manufacture of new gas turbine engine parts. Prior to the FAR Part 21 certification, Southwest Turbine could only repair and overhaul existing parts...
• Dealing With Landfill Fuel: Evaluating Fuel Treatment Options (.pdf)
  -. Generator set manufacturers will provide fuel-quality speci-. posits on valve faces lead to grinding action and increased. fications that include recommended maximum levels of. valve seat wear. contaminants allowable in an engine to maintain optimum. operating conditions. Fuel exceeding specified...
• Aircraft MRO at KLM Royal Dutch Airlines
  into the repair route depending on the condition of the part and costs of the repair (the part will be repaired if the repair costs are less than 60% of the cost of a new part). A total engine overhaul (depending on how many modules must be repaired) takes 65 days with a repairwindow of 17 days. As part of his...
• Gulliver's Engines
  -to-weight ratio of anything flying at the time. The nine-cylinder engine produced 160 hp and gave the Nieuport 28 fighter a top speed of 122 mph. Gyroscopic forces induced by the rotating cylinder heads made flying the plane “interesting.” Castor oil was used in a total-loss oiling system, which bathed...
