Testified: the importance of
rigorous engine assessment
Engine testing, whether during manufacturing or
maintenance, must cut no corners in order to prevent
potentially disastrous mid-flight failures. Joanne Perry
talks to engine manufacturers, MROs and test
equipment providers to find out the latest trends.

A
n aircraft engine exploding mid-flight is a
nightmare scenario perhaps second only
to a terrorist atrocity. No one would ever
dispute the importance of an aircrafts engines
to safe flight, but it takes a near-catastrophe to
really bring the message home. In March,
2011, the European Aviation Safety Agency
(EASA) declared that operators could cease the
engine part inspections which were mandated
after the uncontained failure of a Rolls-Royce
Trent 900 engine on a Qantas Airways A380
flight in November 2010.
The Australian Transport Safety Bureau
(ATSB) had found that the explosion was
caused by fatigue cracking in a feed pipe, which
led to an oil leak. The ATSB concluded that the
pipe had been thinned by misaligned counter-
boring. Rolls-Royce and Qantas released finan-
cial results in February this year showing costs
of 56m and 34m respectively. Qantas
expects the damage to its business ultimately
to total around 50m and may initiate legal
action against Rolls-Royce if a settlement is not
reached.
The November incident, which involved no
loss of life, illustrates the business impact of
engine failure: disruption costs for operators;
investigation, withdrawal-from-service and
replacement costs plus compensation claims
for the manufacturer; and potential loss of
future business to rivals for both operator and
manufacturer due to damaged reputations .
In light of the knock-on effects of engine
problems, it is vital that engine testing is thor-
ough during both the manufacturing process
and subsequent maintenance. Nor is engine
testing limited to safety concerns; manufactur-
ers and operators must adhere to increasingly
stringent rules on environmental and noise pol-
lution. These considerations factor into three
types of engine testing: OEM engine develop-
ment and production testing; MRO return-to-
service testing; and dedicated component test-
ing.
In the United States, the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) issues Federal Aviation
Regulations (FAR), which are mirrored in Europe
by the edicts of the Joint Aviation Authorities
(JAA) and, since 2002, EASA. An agreement
between the European Union and the US
announced on March 15, 2011, will see further
regulatory harmonisation from May 1 this year.
The main FARs relating to engine health are:
FAR 33.65 Surge and Stall Characteristics; FAR
33.68 Induction System Icing; FAR 33.77 Bird
Ingestion and Water Ingestion; FAR 33.83
Engine Vibration; FAR 33.87 Engine Endurance
Test; and FAR 33.88 Over Temperature Test.
The surge and stall characteristics of an engine
are tested by subjecting the engines to high
crosswinds. To assess stalling risk in snow or
ice, engines are sprayed with water at subzero
temperatures. For FAR 33.77, engines must
demonstrate the ability to survive a bird strike
or a four per cent intake of water in the airflow.
The performance of engine parts under vibra-
tion is measured over the full operational
range, including 105 per cent of OEM-specified
maximum speed. The engine endurance test
involves 150 hours of assessment, including
45 hours at continuous thrust and 18.75 hours
at rated take-off thrust. During the over tem-
perature test, exhaust gas temperature (EGT)
limits are exceeded by 75F (24C) for a mini-
mum of five minutes.
Engines are tested on indoor and outdoor
stands as well as when integrated into flying
test beds. For development engines, OEMs
conduct between four and six months of ground
testing on stands before testbed testing.
Ground testing involves operation of the
engines to full power and the running of

safety concerns; manufacturers
and operators must adhere to

pollution.

water/hail, bird ingestion, endurance, emis-
sions and blade out testing, the last of which
ensures that an engine can survive the loss of
a blade. Flying testbed testing consists of run-
ning the engine while it is attached to an air-
frame which has been modified to
accommodate experimental engines.
GE Aviation announced in March this year
the acquisition of a new flying testbed to
replace its existing facility. The $60m invest-
ment at Victorville, California, will help GE to
test the next generation of engines, initially
focusing on the LEAP-X. This will complement
ground testing at GEs Peebles facility in Ohio.
Deborah Case, media relations manager, says:
The newer aircraft will expand the flight per-
formance envelope, offering increased range
and payload, avionics that will allow the aircraft
to talk with the newer engines and a longer
flight test (15 hours versus the current eight to
nine hours). So many advantages will be had
with the newer aircraft.
Additional testing is conducted by aircraft
manufacturers during an aircrafts progress
towards first flight. For example, at the begin-
ning of March Boeing announced the comple-
tion of the first engine runs for the 747-8
Intercontinental. During these tests, which
lasted nearly three hours, the engines were run
at various power settings while basic systems
checks were conducted, along with vibration
monitoring. The shutdown logic was assessed
during power down at the end of the test, fol-
lowed by inspection and a technical review prior
to an eventual restart of the engines.
Beyond the OEMs
The OEMs set requirements for MRO engine
testing, issuing engine test manuals. This form
of testing is the most common, as it supports
the continued operation of the worldwide fleet.
During deep maintenance activities, engines
are removed from the aircraft and run in special
facilities. Power and fuel efficiency are
checked, along with auxiliary systems support-
ing anti-icing capability and cabin air-condition-
ing. Safety assessment also takes place to
validate system redundancy, including safe
modes. Test facility design thus needs to allow
the control and monitoring of a wide range of
parameters such as power, temperature, pres-
sure, vibration, speed, fuel flow and air flow
whilst enabling air supply and exhaust removal.
Business manager Nick Smith from test
facility provider IAC Global Aviation, which has
been in business for more than 60 years,
explains that a further challenge is the man-
agement of the immense noise of an engine
under testing, which he describes as the
Achilles heel of the process.
Smith agrees with SR Technics head of
engine testing Andreas Jost that there is also
pressure to reduce test times, with schedules
being set by the OEMs. IAC promotes opera-
tional efficiencies by using multiple engine cra-
dles to allow the dressing of engines prior to
loading onto test stands. Smith says that com-
puterised control and instrumentation also
help by allowing faster data acquisition and
analysis. Many MROs also offer quick engine
change (QEC) capability. Jost says that a con-
tinual focus on improving turnaround times
(TATs) has enabled SR Technics to reduce aver-
age heavy shop visits by 20 days to 55 days for
CFM engines, and by 28 days to 66 days for
Pratt & Whitney engines. To this end, the com-
pany has introduced T-005 core balancing,
which means that N2 vibrations on CFM56-7B
engines can be balanced without removal of
the core.
Companies such as Schenck and New York-
based MTI Instruments specialise in trim bal-
ancing and vibration analysis. They provide
equipment which can distinguish between
vibration problems and balance problems;
before embarking on a maintenance solution it
is important to discern whether or not the for-
mer is caused by the latter.
Joining IAC in providing OEMs and MROs
with engine testing equipment, facilities and
associated services are Cenco International,
MDS Aero Support, AneCom and Texas-based
Atec amongst others.
Cenco was founded in 1958 as Central
Engineering Company. The company was then
purchased by Techspace Aero in 2003 to cre-
ate the Safran Groups Center of Excellence for
Aero Engine Test Cells, Cenco International.
Cencos products and services cover all types
of propulsion, from turboshaft engines and aux-
iliary power units (APUs) through the largest
civil turbofans to military turbojets. The com-
pany has a customer list of more than 150 air-
lines, MROs, engine manufacturers and
governmental organisations.
Facilities provided by Cenco include com-
mercial fan and turboshaft test cells and mili-
tary hush houses (noise-suppressing facilities).
Test equipment encompasses thrust stands,
engine adapters which connect engines to test-
beds, engine variants and data acquisition and
control systems (DACS/DAS, the digital part of
the test cell interface).
Last year, the company won two contracts
from Rolls-Royce, one for a production test cell
for the Trent Engine family and a second for a
multi-engine test facility for military turbojets in

the Middle East. These projects follow the
award in 2008 of a component testing facility
in Germany, again for Rolls-Royce. Cenco
devotes a significant portion of its business to
OEMs but also caters for MROs. Marketing
director Sbastien David says that last year
Cenco won contracts worth over $100m,
despite the difficult economic circumstances
which have seen MROs delaying investments in
new equipment. The past two years have been
a transitional period during which the MRO
business has stalled but the OEMs have made
significant investments in new programmes.
David is positive about the current situation:
Ultimately, Cenco achieved a very good con-
tract booking in 2010 and we are very confi-
dent for 2011.
SR Technics also noticed a decline in
demand for engine testing: The market
dropped with a certain delay after the reces-
sion and is now recovering little by little, says
Jost.
Smith says that the contract postponement
effect was particularly sharp in the business jet
sector, but that with the upturn [operators] are
now pushing for accelerated construction and
delivery to realise the benefits of their invest-
ment. IAC designs and builds multi-engine test
cells, providing turnkey packages for turbofans,
turbojets, turboshafts and turboprops as
needed: hush houses; ground run-up pens;
mobile test cells; APU test facilities; and DACS.
Smith describes his company presently as
busy and successful and the best kept
secret of clients who prefer not to publicise
ongoing developments.
AneCom AeroTest, a one-stop-shop
provider of services to the gas turbine industry,
is similarly wary of revealing too much about
current projects, but managing director Edmund
Ahlers says he is looking to developing markets
such as India and China to supplement recent
contracts from more traditional sources. In
India we have a business relationship already
and we signed a project in December last year
to continue that. We are looking forward to
more projects to come. The main customer
base so far is in Europe but there are other
areas we are looking into.
AneCom benefits from having a client base
which spreads across a number of industries.
Says Ahlers: We had a recession in 2009 in
the aerospace industry but fortunately in the
powerplant and industrial gas turbine world
there was a lot more work, so that helped us to
survive. AneCom focuses on engine compo-
nent development through aerodynamic testing
and found that during the recession many aero-
space OEMs concentrated on protecting their
own employment figures by maximising use of
in-house resources: They had decided for
some of the projects that we were envisaging
to do the work internally, to employ their own
people, because there was less need for them
in other areas, and we suffered from that as a
supplier.
AneCom provides turnkey solutions, cover-
ing everything from consultancy through design
and project management to analysis and test-
ing. The company is a relatively young player in
the market, founded in Germany in 2002 as a
spin-off from Rolls-Royce, which is an original
shareholder along with MDS (24.9 per cent and
38.6 per cent respectively). AneCom uses test
facilities previously owned by the manufacturer,
especially those for compressors.
Established in 1985, MDS provides test
facilities for all types and sizes of aero
engines, whether turbofans, military thrust
engines, turbojets, turboprops or APUs. In
2002, the company upgraded the overhaul
facilities of SR Technics, replacing DACS and
engine control systems. Many of the test pro-
cedures are now automated, operating accord-
ing to programmable parameters.
Ahlers is keen to emphasise AneComs
independence: They are only in there to make
sure that this company doesnt come under the
control of any of their competitors, so they are
not involved in the daily business. They have
given us this in writing and we can deal with any
other customer including their competition.
The concept from day one was that the share-
holders customer networks could be used to
promote AneComs services to supplement
their own services. Asked about the outlook for

the future, Ahlers was notably enthusiastic:
Business is picking up quite a lot in 2010 and
we are very positively looking into the future
now; we have some very good developments as
a company.
Key trends
When envisioning the future, companies
involved in the engine testing business need to
bear in mind two key trends in the aviation
industry: firstly, increasing engine power and
complexity; and secondly, greater regulatory,
corporate and public pressure for reduced envi-
ronmental pollution both emissions and
noise.
Of the first issue, David says: Globally the
trend in turbofan engine design is for higher by-
pass ratio engines. Not only are those engines
far more complex and digitised than their pred-
ecessors, but their aerodynamic characteristics
are far beyond [what went before]. The direct
consequence is that test cells we supplied 20
years ago (up to 10 or 12m in section) cannot
accommodate such powerful engines. He says
that 14m test cells are becoming more com-
mon, as they can handle engines such as the
GE90, the Trent 900, the GP7200 and will
be likely to cope with their future variants.
On the topic of digital technology, Case says
that few revelations have occurred since full
authority digital electronic controls (FADEC)
were first used in GE engines in the late
1980s. However, she notes that Boeings forth-
coming 787 Dreamliner features electrical sys-
tems on the airframe which were previously
pneumatic or air-powered from the engines.
This has resulted in GE installing discharge
mechanisms for these systems during GEnx
testing. These adaptations have been made to
GEs test cells in Peebles as well as its current
flying testbed in Victorville.
Interestingly, Smith says that a notable
increase in the power demands on modern
engines originates from on-board systems,
especially those delivering in-flight entertain-
ment.
Mostly it seems to be the test procedures
themselves which have become loaded with
complex information technology. Says Smith:
The test facilities for engine development
[now] demand far more instrumentation to
analyse characteristics throughout the engine
and supporting systems. As an example he
points out that IAC has supplied cells with over
5000 channels. David agrees: Data acquisi-
tion and instrumentation is a very dynamic
business, where many manufacturers regularly
propose interesting new technologies.
According to Smith, control and monitoring sys-
tems have historically consisted of bespoke
hardware, single source software and various
specialist conditioning units. This meant that
customers were obliged to pay hefty bills for
modifications and upgrades. IAC has
EYB2012 Editorial 144p_144p version 02/11/2011 09:42 Page 10
11 The Engine Yearbook 2012
responded to this situation by developing an
off-the-shelf control and DACS offering.
Jost sees benefits to digital technology on
the MRO side: Digital technology has the
advantage that almost all required test parame-
ters are measured by the electronic control of
the engine; only a few additional probes need to
be installed. However, he warns that the elec-
trical trouble-shooting burden can increase.
For AneCom, the IT sophistication of mod-
ern engine testing lies in the computer aided
design (CAD) of engine components, modelling
and analysis. Ahlers believes this has gener-
ated mixed results: The complexity of engines
requires less need for testing on the one hand
because the modelling is getting better and the
need for validation has gone down, but on the
other hand the less need the OEM has for test-
ing the more attractive it is to outsource, so for
us it does mean a better perspective in the
future because the tendency for outsourcing
will increase.
The informational aspect of engine testing
today crosses over into another key issue of
our times: concern over environmental impact.
Ahlers sees business potential in this trend:
Green technology for future engines requires
some key developments which will need test-
ing. Also, in engine noise investigations there
is still a big need for validation tests where just
models dont help.
The engine testing business has some
catching up to do when it comes to innovations
lessening environmental impact, in compari-
son with the constant stream of new engines
from OEMs which claim ever lower fuel burn.
David comments: Unfortunately, there is not
much that can be done to reduce emissions
due to an engine run, but the shorter the
engine test, the fewer the emissions. This is
the kind of green that our customers appreci-
ate, because optimising the engine testing pro-
cedures means saving fuel as well as the
environment.
However, Cenco is exploring options such
as recovering energy expended during test-
ing, which is currently untapped. The com-
pany has also developed the first test cell in
the world to receive Leadership in Energy
and Environmental Design (LEED) recognition
from the US Green Building Council, for
Shanghai Pratt & Whitney in 2009. Yet much
work remains to be done; this project
focuses on the environmental footprint of the
building itself rather than the activities
within. David describes it as only a first
step.
As regards the noise pollution of increasingly
powerful engines, Ahlers is optimistic that inno-
vations designed to reduce noise will involve
new architectures that require significant test-

ing, because early modelling and analysis is dif-
ficult. Thus, long-term plans by national and
transnational authorities for noise reduction
over the coming years should favour AneComs
services. David agrees that the drive for a
lesser noise impact is one of two strong trends
he detects in the business today, alongside per-
petual demand for greater accuracy from OEMs
and operators. Indeed, Smith describes increas-
ingly stringent noise emission regulations as
the key influence on IAC.

o trace the roots of CFMs next-generation
LEAP engine, one needs to go back many
years. From a technology perspective, the
engines legacy reaches back some 20 years to
the development of the GE90, the powerplant
for the 777 widebody. Around six years ago
CFM began serious efforts to gather input from
perspective customers on what they wanted in
the next generation of powerplants for the sin-
gle-aisle workhorses of tomorrow.
The payoff of that long-term perspective is
an engine that will offer breakthroughs in emis-
sions and fuel efficiency, while maintaining reli-
ability and maintenance costs identical to the
CFM56 family, which has garnered more than
525 million flight hours in nearly 30 years of
airline service.
When CFM executives talk about the LEAP
programme, its with the air of confidence that
comes from treading on familiar ground. While
the combinations of technologies represented
in LEAP are new to the CFM product line, devel-
opment, testing and planning for entry into
service are all second nature, with CFM having
been through 21 entries into service and six
major engine certifications on the CFM56 fam-
ily over the last 30 years each of them on
time, and on specification.
Technology is about what you have been
doing for the last 15 years to bring yourself to this
The Engine Yearbook 2012
The newest engine from a 36-year partnership between GE and Snecma is on track for
certification in 2014, offering a 15 per cent improvement in fuel efficiency and lower noise and
emissions. It will also hold the line on maintenance cost and reliability. CFM provides an update
on the programme.

general manager for LEAP marketing. The suc-
cess of the LEAP engine wont only be determined
between now and entry into service in 2016. It
was also determined between 1995 and 2011. It
wasnt called LEAP in 1995, but thats when we
started building it. This is our legacy and track
record of performance. Every technology thats
going into LEAP is proven, he adds.
Customer Focus Key to
Development
Technology is only one part of CFMs
approach to developing LEAP. Another key com-
ponent is a years-long programme of working
with customers to understand their needs
and to keep those needs at the forefront as
engineers developed the LEAP engine.
No discussion with a customer starts with,
look at our great technology, Brown says.
We have to keep focus on what their needs
are so that technology delivers real benefits
without creating risks in other areas.
To gain that market insight, CFM conducted
four years of face-to-face meetings, soliciting
input from more than 50 customers, and com-
bined the results with comprehensive surveys
of more than 300 potential stakeholders,
including airlines, lessors, MRO organisations,
appraisers, banks and others. This supple-
mented the single-aisle engine experience
gained over the last 30 years.
The core message of those meetings was
clear: lower fuel burn has become a critical
requirement to operators due to the rise of fuel
costs, but the need for high engine reliability
and low maintenance cost has remained
equally important. For a workhorse fleet, they
clearly want a workhorse engine that will let
them keep their aircraft flying.
CFM also believes the regulatory regime will
only become more challenging in regards to
environmental performance, particularly for
emissions of oxides of nitrogen (NOX), a
byproduct of combustion. Since aviation is the
only industry releasing NOX at altitude, it is par-
ticularly vulnerable to regulation and penalty.
And improving NOX emissions will ultimately
reduce cost to operators if, as anticipated, reg-
ulatory schemes begin to tax total NOx emis-
sions.
As a consequence, LEAP has four guiding
principles with ambitious goals for each. The
programme is designed to provide: 15 percent
better fuel efficiency; reliability and mainte-
nance costs equivalent to the current CFM56
family; NOX emissions that are 50 per cent
lower than ICAO CAEP/6 protocols; and noise
levels that are 10-15dB lower than Stage 4
requirements, depending on the application.
To date, the approach has yielded three
important programme wins. Firstly, the LEAP-1C
was selected as the sole Western powerplant
to provide a complete integrated propulsion

needs so that technology

system for the Chinese COMAC C919 150-
seater, due to enter service in 2016. Then, in
December 2010, Airbus announced that LEAP
would be available on the A320neo. The com-
pany has received orders for more than 900
LEAP-1A engines to date and they will enter
service in 2016. Most recently, in August
2011, the LEAP-1B was chosen as the sole
powerplant for the Boeings re-engined narrow-
body, the 737MAX, set to enter service in
2017. There have already been nearly 1,000
engines orders for that aircraft.
Legacy of Technology
It takes multiple technologies to meet mul-
tiple objectives, Brown says. Examples
includes the composite fan blades that keep
LEAP light, 3D aerodynamics for efficiency,
advanced cooling for high-pressure turbine
durability, and asecond-generation lean burn
combustor to optimise emissions performance.
Those technologies will give the LEAP fan
efficiency, core efficiency, low emissions and
low maintenance cost. All of these benefits
with CFMs legendary reliability. No single tech-
nology or system can deliver all that, says
Brown.
The CFM 50/50 partnership between
Snecma General Electric dates back more than
36 years, and was recently extended to at least
2040. The partnership unites two business cul-
tures that allow CFM to leverage the inherent
strengths of both and, Brown maintains, results
in better decision making.
Likewise, the partners are dividing develop-
ment work on LEAP. One of the most aggressive
technologies going into the engine is an all-new
wide-chord composite fan, a first for the single-
aisle segment. For LEAP, the fan will have just
18 blades, half the number on the CFM56-5C,
and 25 per cent fewer than the CFM56-7B.
Building the fan required development of
new resin transfer molding production
processes, a development that has been under-
way at Snecma for more than 10 years. The fan
has been undergoing ground tests since early
2009, including a 5,000 cycle endurance test,
blade-out tests, bird strike testing, and
acoustics analysis, validating the design.
The composite fan and containment case
pay off in terms of weight savings. CFM proj-
ects LEAP will be 1,000lbs lighter per shipset
than the same size fan and case made using
metal. And because of the experience gained
with wide-chord composites on the GE90, they
are confident about durability as well: to date,
there have been no airworthiness directives on
GE90 fan blades and in the course of nearly 25
million flight hours over 15 years, only a few
blades have been taken out of service.
The engine core draws heavily on GEs
expertise developed for the GE90 and GEnx
programmes, with compressor, combustor and
coatings technology all being pulled forward
into LEAP to improve performance while main-
taining reliability.
CFM has completed testing on eCore
Demonstrator 1, and was scheduled to begin
testing of eCore Demonstrator 2 by mid-2011,
part of what Brown describes as a steady
drumbeat of core testing that includes six
core tests for the GE90, three more for the
GEnx, and three core tests for LEAP.
Some of the weight savings from the com-
posite fan are absorbed by a stiff, double-wall
compressor case, which is designed to prevent
the core from flexing due to torque induced at
rotation by the larger fan, thereby reducing risk
of blade rub and incumbent performance degra-
dation.
The turbine blades themselves are
designed using advanced three-dimensional (3-
D) aerodynamics to optimise performance. The
first five compressor stages are a blisk (bladed
disks) design, which minimises air leaks by
eliminating dovetail joints between blades and
disks. In total, the 10-stages of compression
create a 22:1 pressure ratio, which CFM claims
is the best in the industry.
The Twin Annular Pre-Mixing Swirler (TAPS)
fuel nozzles, developed first as part of CFMs
Project TECH56 and soon to enter service on
the GEnx, pre-mix air and fuel and enable the
engine to run at lower peak temperatures with
longer residence time, key factors in reducing
NOX emissions.
The two-stage high-pressure turbine (HPT)
incorporates 3-D aerodynamic design,
advanced coatings, and GE-developed casting

technology to improve cooling, the key to max-
imising life of the blades. The LEAP HPT has
undergone some 4,500 hours of component
tests, giving CFM assurance that the core can
run with higher thermal efficiency than the
CFM56-5B core, but at equal blade tempera-
tures a key driver in hitting the goal of having
LEAP maintenance costs equal those of the
CFM56.
Maintenance and reliability
Maintenance cost is a key component of the
LEAP programme for a variety of reasons. First
and foremost, customer exercises indicated
that maintenance and reliability were a major
concern of airlines and other stakeholders. And
with the increasing prevalence of fixed-cost-per-
hour operating agreements, CFMs economic
case for LEAP is dependent on creating a reli-
able, durable engine with predictable costs
right from the start.
An extensive test programme leading up to
entry into service in 2016 is key to validating
those costs. The LEAP programme calls for run-
ning a total of 18,000 endurance cycles prior
to entry-into-service, so that launch customers
receive a totally mature product.
In addition to the coatings and combustion
technology, CFM is employing other designs
and lessons learned from the GE90 and GEnx
programmes to meet its reliability targets, and
to enable the engine to retain performance
over its service life.
For example, the core is designed to be
FOD (foreign object damage) free, with several
techniques employed to keep particulate mat-
ter out of the core, reducing blade erosion so
that performance is maintained over the life of
the engine. The wide-chord fan blades cen-
trifuge a lot of particles out of the core flow,
expelling them with bypass air.
CFM executives believe they have a historic
advantage over their competitors in mainte-
nance cost over a range of aircraft applications
where competing engines are offered to air-
lines, and they are committed to keeping LEAP
maintenance costs similar to existing CFM
costs, which are considered the lowest in the
industry for single-aisle engines.
History doesnt prove the future, but its a
good indicator, Brown says. We have a strong
track record, and we have solid technology and
design going forward. Execution and innovation
are better proven than promised.

higher the temperatures reached by the engine,
and the higher the deterioration rate will be.
The average length of the flight also has a
big impact on the engine time on wing. An
engine deteriorates most during take-off, there-
fore the ratio of take-off time to time on wing is
crucial. For every engine model, there is a
severity curve, used to define the different
cost per hour or cycle if operational factors
change.
However, not all take-offs are performed at
maximum power, but rather at a lower thrust
setting. This is commonly referred to as de-
rate. De-rates are always applied by the opera-
tor, subject to an aircrafts maximum take-off
weight and environmental conditions. The
higher the percentage of de-rate used, the less
the engine deteriorates.
Delivery and redelivery conditions
Delivery and redelivery conditions are fre-
quently reasons for discussion between lessor
and lessee. Delivery conditions relate to the
actual condition of the engine, while a lessor
usually requests redelivery conditions to be
added to a contract in order to make sure that
the asset is going to be in an acceptable con-
dition for re-lease once the current lease is ter-
minated. If redelivery conditions are not met,
the lessee is usually forced to perform a shop
visit. The engine is not being repaired for a
technical reason and therefore its on-wing life
is not optimised and its cost per hour is higher.
This is obviously unwelcome for the operator
and should be avoided.
Lessor and lessee often define the redeliv-
ery conditions together by agreeing on the fore-
casted technical conditions of the engine, so
that the asset will be repaired only when tech-
nically needed (and not for commercial rea-
sons) thus maximising the use of the
maintenance reserves and minimising the
lessees costs and the engine cost per hour.

55 The Engine Yearbook 2012
Once the lease agreement is agreed and
signed, the engine has to be delivered to the
satisfaction of the operator, monitored and
returned to the owner for another lease or for
breakdown or sale.
Delivery and monitoring
During delivery to the lessee, the engine
and its documents have to be prepared in
proper order, the engine configuration has to be
aligned to the lessees wishes and the lessor
has to assist the airline with any issues it may
have.
Regular inspections should be performed
during the lease period to make sure that the
engine is kept in a good condition and the
value of the asset is maintained. Monitoring
of the engine during the lease is seldom con-
sidered as additional cost, though SGI
believes that continuous monitoring and pro-
active management will alleviate problems at
the end of a lease and maintain good rela-
tions with the lessee. In line with this, SGI
has noted an increased focus by leasing
companies on keeping assets monitored as
the interests of the lessees do not always
match the owners. Lease contracts should
provide for checks to be performed during
the lease.
Typically, issues during major repairs, where
the operator may try to reduce the cost, while
the owners interest is to ensure the proper
standard is maintained and the level of parts
installed are adequate to guarantee that the
next lessee will be satisfied with the conditions
and performance of the engine. Lessors are
increasingly involved in the active management
of engines through the MRO shop and SGI pro-
vides the expertise and knowledge to reach the
best decisions.
During the lease period, the lessor needs
to be continuously updated on technical
issues affecting the engine model as they may
have a detrimental impact on the re-mar-
ketability of the asset. Even more critical is for
lessors to be updated on upcoming regulatory
requirements and to make strategic decisions
accordingly.
Redelivery
Once the redelivery date is near, the lessor
should consider all possible options for the
engine, based on the market conditions, includ-
ing: to sell the asset; to re-lease it; to upgrade
it; to break it into parts; or to exchange it. In
order to make the most appropriate decision, it
is critical to know the condition of the engine.
In SGIs experience, redelivery is the most crit-
ical phase and has to be addressed at an early
stage by approaching the operator, discussing
requirements and making sure that critical
areas are covered.
Each investor needs to decide
in which section of the
life-cycle to invest in, for
instance in the
latest-generation of engines or
in older equipment.
Regular inspections should be performed during the lease period to make sure that the value of
the engine asset is maintained.

F
or A J Walter (AJW) Aviation, entering the air-
craft engine leasing business was the next
logical step in the evolution of the company,
bringing it closer to its goal of providing optimum
solutions for airline customers. AJW had already
established a wide customer base, with over
700 airline customers in more than 100 coun-
tries utilising its component leasing services, so
engine leasing was seen as a natural extension
to its existing business model and a clear growth
strategy for the company. Launched in early
2011, the new AJW Aircraft Engine Services divi-
sion encompasses four key areas: the supply of
engine parts; engine leasing; engine exchange;
and engine management services.
The aircraft engines sector is a challenging,
dynamic and competitive environment. As well as
AJW there are several other new entrants to the
engine leasing market. These new suppliers are
usually funded from two general sources: major
financial institutions with an existing aviation busi-
ness; and private equity and hedge funds looking
to purchase assets for a long-term investment.
It is also evident that there is growing con-
solidation in the marketplace with joint ven-
tures and ongoing mergers and acquisitions,
such as AeroTurbine being acquired by AerCap
and GEs acquisition of the Memphis group,
which provides end-of-life solutions for their cur-
rent leased fleets and customers alike. More
recently, ST Aerospace created a new leasing
company in conjunction with Marubeni
Corporation. Thus the market sector remains
dynamic and there is still room for new, niche

ence in the airframe business, so expanding
into the engines market allows it to provide
additional services to its current customer
base and attract new customers.
A new approach
The market trend in the engine sector has
normally been to grow very big, very quickly and
then leverage economies of scale. Being pri-
vately owned, AJWs strategy is different. It is
looking to grow organically and differentiate
itself with its already highly regarded customer
service and support. AJW provides a menu of
services and offers a complete one-stop solu-
tion for airframe components, rotables, con-
sumables and now engines.

Steve Williams, director of aircraft engine
services, comments: We believe this
approach and our ability to tailor a bespoke
package of services is unique in the market
and will provide an even better solution for our
customers.
AJW is a leader in component spares man-
agement and entering into the engines market
further complements the services available.
Customers can now have all their support
requirements managed by one central source,
whether they concern engines, components,
rotables or consumables. The new AJW Aircraft
Engine Services division offers an integrated
management solution providing engineering
services, aircraft engines for lease and over-
hauled engine parts to help operators minimise
engine maintenance costs. AJW has the tech-
nical experience to fully evaluate engine pur-
chases to ensure the most cost-effective
products are available for the customer.
Building an engine inventory
The companys inventory of engines will
grow naturally as it identifies availability and
purchases engines on the open market.
Alternatively, it will purchase assets from air-
lines as they divest their existing fleets and
move into other platforms. Fleet migration is a
key element in AJWs purchasing strategy for
engines and components. As airlines change
their fleet mix, very often this costly event
requires support from materials specialists.
This is going to be one area of particular focus
for AJW as it assists existing airline customers
to identify suitable engine assets to purchase.
Were bringing a wealth of aircraft engine
experience and proven delivery to the sector
and the infrastructure we are building will make
us a serious player in engine sales, leasing and
parts supply says Williams. AJW is now rap-
idly building its engine inventory and is cur-
rently able to offer a wide range of CFM56-3s
and 5A1s. This is scheduled to expand into
additional engine types as more acquisitions
come into our reach.
The next phase of AJWs development
strategy is to target the newer generation of
aircraft and engines for teardown. We are
currently evaluating the market to see if it
makes economical and operational sense to
tear down B737NGs and later-generation
A320s. The market economics for newer air-
craft means the lifecycle profile has changed
from over 25 years to nearer 15 years. This
makes the possibility of tearing down younger
aircraft a more attractive proposition, says
Williams.
This change has occurred because major
lessors are depreciating aircraft over shorter
periods to ensure their fleets can be replenished
The market trend in the engine sector has normally been to grow very big, very quickly and then
leverage economies of scale.

with more modern aircraft. In the current climate
there are several companies who have already
torn down B737NGs and are using the aircraft to
provide engines for leasing or tear-down.
Due to the sheer volume of newer genera-
tion aircraft delivered over the last 10 years,
the demand for leased engines in todays envi-
ronment is increasing. When this is combined
with the financial pressures on airlines to keep
their lease engine pool to an absolute mini-
mum, it creates a great operating environment
for lease companies. Traditionally airlines
would keep a lease pool of around 12 per cent
of their flying fleet, now this is approaching six
to eight per cent.
There are a couple of major players in the
leasing space and they serve the market in two
strategic ways. Firstly, through the provision of
long-term lease engines to airlines, which can be
positioned with the airline for anything up to 15
years and from the basis of a long-term financial
lease to keep the engine off the balance sheet.
The second possibility is for the lessors to pro-
vide short-term engine leases while an operators
own engine is grounded for maintenance. This is
where AJW plans to focus its activities and
become a significant short-term lease provider.
One of AJWs major strengths is the large
number of aircraft it currently manages under
component support packages. This provides a
natural outlet for materials following an aircraft
tear-down and leaves the engines available for
lease or subsequent part-out. The demand for
materials to feed client requirements makes
the acquisition of aircraft an attractive proposi-
tion, especially when combined with the ability
to gain significant value from the engines.
Having complementary services in several
areas has helped the company grow into a full-
service provider for aircraft and AJW can now
offer its customers complete aircraft support.
Exchange, lease or tear-down
values
AJW is rapidly developing its aircraft engine
leasing service, initially focusing on the CFM56
family, and going forward it plans to add the
V2500-A5, CF6-80C2 and PW4000 types to the
pool. The CFM56s are provided on short-term
leases, typically 60-90 days, using the existing
green-time. The short-term leases are primarily
aimed at airlines, offering a support solution for
when one of their existing aircraft engines is
undergoing maintenance and/or overhaul. Going
forward, AJW will focus on aircraft purchases and
use the remaining life on each engine as the
determining factor in aircraft value. Any engine
with a long life-cycle left on it qualifies as an
exchange candidate, while an engine with
medium life remaining will be leased to burn off
the residual green-time. Tired engines will be
allocated immediately to the AJW part-out pool
for tear-down and will later serve as a source of
supply material. The decision for each option
can be financial or operational and AJW remains
flexible in choosing and in utilising engines in a
variety of life-cycle stages.
The company aims to have around 20-25
per cent of engine assets available on a lease
basis. Being mindful of demand trends, AJW
will soon need a large supply of later-model nar-
rowbody engines, such as CFM56-5B/7Bs and
V2500-A5s. With the continued production of
these engine platforms, and the already largely
installed engine base, AJW will be investing in
this area to move the division further forward.
Outsourcing flexible financial and
operational solutions
During the past couple of years, the indus-
try has seen an increase in the number of air-
lines who prefer to keep some of their assets
off the balance sheet. This has increased the
requirement to provide specifically tailored
solutions for the sale and leaseback of aircraft
assets, whether they be engines or a whole
pool of components or other materials such as
wheels and brakes.
This trend is expected to continue in future
years as financial pressure continues to drive
vendors to provide financially balanced and
flexible solutions. In addition, airlines face con-
tinued pressure from OEM price increases,
which can force an engine to double in price
over a 10-year window. This, coupled with
increasing oil prices, means the airlines have
no alternative but to find other ways of sup-
porting their operations.
Lessors face a similar issue since they have
to satisfy the demands of their investors,
ensure their fleet mix meets the market profile
and also maintain an ever-younger fleet. Some
lessors have changed their fleet profile over
the last couple of years and now boast fleet
ages of around three to four years. However, as
these aircraft mature there is also an issue of
how to maximise the residual value of the air-
craft asset.
We are currently evaluating the
market to see if it makes
economical and operational
sense to tear down B737NGs
and later-generation A320s.
Steve Williams, director of
aircraft engine services, AJW
Fleet migration is a key element in AJWs purchasing strategy for engines and components.
EYB2012 Editorial 144p_144p version 03/11/2011 17:18 Page 60
61 The Engine Yearbook 2012
There are generally a couple of methods of
maximising the residual value. The first is to
extend the life of the aircraft by either releasing
or converting the passenger aircraft to cargo,
which has been looked at with varying degrees
of success by several companies on 737
Classics and A320s. The problem with passen-
ger-to-cargo conversions is that the aircraft
flies fewer hours /cycles and therefore requires
less maintenance and hence less engine work
for service providers such as AJW.
The second option is to part-out the aircraft
where the value is 80/20 in favour of the
engines. These engines can be leased or
parted out depending on their current life pro-
file.
When assessing aircraft available for part-
out, the impact of new technology available dur-
ing the overhaul of an engine which delivers
upgrades to the normal production fleet must
also be considered. These retrofits do two
things. Firstly, they control the flow of new mate-
rial into an engine, thus improving its on-wing
life and fuel burn. Secondly, they control the
available market size for the provision of used
material. The OEMs have continually looked for
ways to increase their market share of the MRO
market and these material solutions provide
them with an ideal opportunity to introduce
materials into engines even if they themselves
are not undertaking the maintenance.
When overhauling engines some airlines do
not pay enough attention to managing the stub
life of life-limited parts (LLPs). Very often on the
later generation of engines which have high on-
wing life, there could be LLP stub life of 7,000
cycles remaining, which in cash terms could
equate to over $400,000.
With interest rates staying fairly low over the
last three years, there has been a drive to push
lease factors lower. This is expected to change
over the next couple of years, as costs
increase in direct correlation with inflation.
So, AJW is now focusing its activities on
engine material supply combined with the
development of a pool of short-term lease
engines. The initial portfolio includes CFM56
and V2500 engines but this will grow to include
widebody engines such as the CF6-80C2 and
PW4000. AJW is naturally combining its well-
regarded service delivery with this new expert-
ise in engines and lease engine support as well
as suitable engine assets to lease and/or part-
out, bringing new opportunities to its current
customer base of over 700 airlines. So far
demand has outstripped supply and we are
continually looking to expand our pool to meet
the requirements we have. Currently, we enjoy a
utilisation rate for our lease engines of over 90
per cent and this figure is closely monitored to
ensure we have the right assets in place as the
demand profile changes.
The next phase in the development of the
new engine division is to increase its global
presence. To do this AJW is concentrating on
placing engines for lease in key areas such as
Turkey, India, Middle East, Far East and North
America. This will increase the service offering
to customers and avoid costly transportation of
engines.
AJW continues to expand its global geo-
graphical footprint with a new sales and cus-
tomer services office in Miami, a doubling of its
warehouse capacity in Singapore and new
warehousing in Miami and Los Angeles. The
company is also relocating its UK-based global
headquarters to a new development, providing
up to 200,000sq-ft of purpose-built office and
storage space, and state-of-the-art training
facilities. This new campus will be fully opera-
tional in autumn 2012.

Engine leasing over
the next decade
Spare engine leasing has come a long way since the 1980s and todays market, though much
smaller than that for aircraft leasing, has attracted plenty of interest from potential new players.
Nonetheless, barriers to entry are formidable and the engine leasing companies still around
today have evolved through several stages of development. Jon Sharp, CEO of Engine Lease
Finance, describes the journey.
The Engine Yearbook 2012
products. The true engine operating lease
hardly existed back in the late 1980s, despite
the growth in aircraft operating leasing.
Rise of the operating lease
The first drivers for change arrived in that
period. Operating leases for aircraft had
become popular, applying to some 20 per cent
of the in-service fleet by the late 1980s, and, as
JT8Ds were replaced by increasingly expensive
models, minds turned towards applying the
same financial product to engines. The rise in
unit value had two effects: firstly, lessors saw
an opportunity, as costlier engines began to jus-
tify the transaction complexity of operating
I
n the formative years of the engine leasing
market, in the early 1980s, the original play-
ers were companies that provided spare
engines on short-term leases to plug the gap
between spare powerplants owned by airlines
and excess demand for engines usually
caused by unscheduled engine failures. These
companies, such as AAR and AGES, typically
leased the ubiquitous JT8D series, for which
there was near market saturation in the nar-
rowbody market. Also supplying engines to
match this peak demand were the engine
OEMs, whose product support pools were
tapped into for this purpose. The OEMs also
supported the widebody fleets powered by their
62
ELFC CEO John Sharp.
EYB2012 Editorial 144p_144p version 02/11/2011 11:53 Page 62
The global provider of
64
leases; secondly, the OEMs started taking a
hard look at the costs of maintaining their prod-
uct support pools and realised that some of this
service should be charged on a true economic
basis. Those two factors together started the
early development of the present commercial
engine operating lease business. With Willis
Lease heading in a similar direction, Engine
Lease Finance (ELF) was founded in 1989
and wrote its first long-term leases in 1990.
At the same time, engine reliability and
maintenance predictability increased dramati-
cally, reducing the need for short-term leases
for new models. Increasingly, the short-term
leasing product became one that was typically
offered for older engine types more readily
available in the secondary market, which leant
themselves to a business model that burned
off green time and then committed a time-
expired engine to part-out. Parts were then
refurbished and sold back into the mainte-
nance, repair and overhaul (MRO) market.
The short-term leasing companies were
(and largely remain) traders who look to turn
over their capital on a regular basis, unlike
operating lessors who typically invest in a prod-
uct with a view to holding it for 10 years or so.
This market sector has since moved on with
the much bigger populations of engines, and
GA Telesis is a good example of a modern grow-
ing company in this area. ILFC have acquired
Aeroturbine apparently with the intention of
leveraging its competence in extracting value
from older engines. It will be interesting to see
how that develops.
After operating lease companies had grown,
they had to prove their business model by
remarketing engines that were five or six years
down the line, having been returned from their
first leases. Any operating lessor whose busi-
ness model is based around longer-term leas-
ing is anxious that as soon as an engine
finishes its lease, it should be placed immedi-
ately onto the next. Unfortunately, availability
for a second long-term lease may not be so
immediate; therefore, rather than having an
engine sitting in a warehouse incurring storage
and finance costs, a lessor looks to place it in
the short-term market until a long-term position
is found.
Accordingly, the new breed of operating
lessors also became short-term lessors. With
the growing sophistication within the engine
leasing community this line has become
blurred and the mature companies of today
offer a mixture of products, often combining
them to offer the airline a one-stop shop for
all their leasing requirements, which is where
ELF is now positioned. Now, the short-term
leasing product has become more common-
place for modern engines, which may or may
not be characterised as a pool.
The next development arose as operating
lessors became more financially sophisticated

The original players were
companies that provided spare
engines on short-term leases
to plug the gap between spare
powerplants owned by airlines
and excess demand for
engines usually caused by
unscheduled engine failures.

and saw opportunities to syndicate packages
of engines with revenue-earning leases
attached to them. Nowadays most engine
lessors have sold off such packages, taking
profit and raising cash as a minority share-
holder while earning lease management and
engine remarketing fees. These syndication
platforms also provide a vehicle for portfolio
management. ELF currently has 74 engines
part-owned or under management and holds
mandates for a further 17, all with a variety of
investors, though we continue to own outright
the great majority of our engines.
By 2010 a sophisticated and well-rounded
engine leasing market had developed and, of
course, I like to think that ELF has been instru-
mental in leading the charge. But a lot more
has been going on: the OEMs have greatly
expanded their aftermarket product offerings,
notably in providing all-inclusive maintenance
and overhaul services, some of which are com-
bined with spare engine support. GE Engine
Leasing and Rolls-Royce Partners Finance are
now the two largest engine lessors in the world
by dollar value and have rapidly grown their in-
house maintained portfolios. SES, a subsidiary
of CFMI, is also significant in this mix, offering
pooling services for the CFM family of engines,
as well as some operating leases and non-club
short-term leasing. The airlines have an
unprecedented choice of service providers.
It is the operating lease market that repre-
sents the core business for ELF. The company
acquires a large proportion of its assets
through relatively risk-free sale-and-leaseback
deals; these involve the acquisition of the
engine and its simultaneous placement on
lease and commencement of revenue earning
life. This part of our business has been
extremely strong in the years following the
financial meltdown of 2008: the financial crisis
had the dual effect of reducing airlines rev-
enues and cash at the same time as closing off
potential sources of funding as banks ran for
cover. It should be recalled that 2006 and
2007 were record years enjoyed by the air-
frame and engine manufacturers for orders.
And as has been repeated in economic cycle
after cycle, those record numbers of engines
and aircraft then rolled off production lines just
when the airlines didnt need them and cant
pay for them. It has always been important that
leasing companies, as asset investors, cor-
rectly anticipate the economic cycle.

Accordingly, another set of record orders at the
2011 Paris Air Show didnt escape our atten-
tion.
Riding the cycle
The demand for operating leasing is obvi-
ously driven by airlines desire to raise cash
and remove assets from their balance sheets,
a common feature during times of economic
hardship, and a growing business at a time
when the perceived funding gap in aviation
finance has risen. Also, the trend has been for
airlines to source specialist funding for aircraft
engines. The driver for this has been the
increase in engine prices over time. For exam-
ple, in 2000 a CF680-C2 B1 had a sticker
price of $6.5m, but this had increased to
$13m by 2010. Similarly, we have seen the
introduction of very large engines, notably the
various offerings for the 777. The GE90-115 B
today sports a stratospheric list price of
$32.5m including QEC. Whatever the eco-
nomic climate, airlines are keen to close out
residual value risk, the importance of which
has risen in line with engine values. The lessor
is better positioned to manage this risk as it
can lease the engine for consecutive terms,
then burn off green time with a short-term
lease and liquidate the asset options not
open to an airline.
Thin profits in the airline community are well
recognised. IATA keeps on revising its 2011
estimates for industry profit as oil prices
change, since fuel is the major spend and has
a dramatic effect on the bottom line. We have
recently seen two French banks announce their
exit from air finance, no doubt because they
see it as too cyclical and so risky. However,
banks are sticking around to fund the lessors,
as they take a longer-term view. Small wonder,
then, that some 35 per cent of all current air-
craft orders are with aircraft leasing compa-
nies. This trend of major order placements has
not been followed so much by the engine
lessors due to uncertainty both over engine
performance and over OEM market support
intentions, however.
The Engine Yearbook 2012

It appears the aviation industry is set for
significant long-term growth, even with the cur-
rent concerns about the eurozone and US debt.
Despite inevitable cyclical disturbances, the
backbone of this belief is that air travel is fun-
damental to global politics, its economy and
society. Major forecasts such as Boeings pre-
dict that from 2010 to 2029 there will be about
31,000 new aircraft delivered in order to sup-
port both growth in the world fleet and replace-
ment of obsolete aircraft. It would be make the
jobs easy for those of us involved in investment
decision-making if this was a steady flow, but
the ups and downs do present an opportunity
for the engine lessor who really understands
his market, engine type by engine type there
is little macro-thinking in engine leasing.
Nevertheless, looking at the big picture,
these aircraft delivery forecasts lead us to the
conclusion that some $2bn of spare engines
will be funded every year on average by operat-
ing leases. A large proportion of this, perhaps
up to half, will be provided through some form
of maintenance-related package provided by
the OEMs. That leaves a billion dollars a year
for the five or six specialist engine lessors in
the market. Compared to aircraft leasing that is
a small market, making engine lessors niche
players. However, the market does appear to be
robust in the long term and it is perhaps for
that reason, rather than any large-scale oppor-
tunities, that new players are constantly
expressing interest in joining the market.
It is, however, very tough for new entrants to
develop critical mass in a business which, dol-
lar for dollar, is more complex and overhead-
heavy than aircraft leasing. A company has to
go through all of the stages of development
referred to above before they get there. Add to
that the fact that competition is fierce and new
business placed on the books whether by
sale and leaseback or by order placement and
subsequent lease is now written at histori-
cally low lease rates (significantly lower than
aircraft), which results in a negative yield curve
for the early years. It is only by means of a
mature portfolio spread sensibly over new and
older engines that a lessor will run a success-
ful and profitable mixed economy. It also
means they need deep pockets.
ELFs Macquarie deal
ELFs efforts are greatly supported by our
parent company in the US and its ultimate par-
ent, The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, and it is
that financial strength which has allowed us to
pursue a successful strategy of growth to
achieve our current position of maturity. That
has recently culminated in our agreement with
Macquarie Aviation Capital Finance to purchase
its engine assets. This represents the acquisi-
tion of 47 engines with 18 different lessees
plus the servicing rights and obligations for an
additional seven engines owned by an investor
fund; this allows ELFC to continue to grow its
owned and managed portfolio of modern aero
engines towards nearly 300 engines and pro-
vides for the addition of seven new customers
to our portfolio. The acquisition of these
engines allows ELF to step up its growth plans
with immediate effect during 2011. We have
now consolidated our position as the third
biggest engine lessor on the planet, and, by a
significant distance, the largest not affiliated
with an OEM, although we continue to work
closely with them. We estimate that our share
of the true engine operating lease market is
somewhat in excess of 20 per cent. We will
continue to aggressively pursue revenue and
portfolio growth through sale-and-leaseback
transactions, engine order positions and other
portfolio opportunities in line with our strategic
business objectives. ELF looks forward to con-
tinuing to lead the charge in this compelling
market.

Financial imperatives, technological advances and emerging markets are all affecting the shape
and size of the engine MRO industry. Together, these influences are creating major changes in the
way the industry does business. Chris Kjelgaard reports.
Trends in the engine
MRO business
M
any factors impact how the turbine
engine maintenance, repair and over-
haul business is operating. New mate-
rials and design technologies are keeping
modern engines on-wing longer. Together with
on-condition maintenance programmes which
use the diagnostic capabilities offered by digi-
tal engine control systems, advanced tech-
niques which can repair parts inside the engine
without requiring it to be removed from the wing
are also improving on-wing times.
A continuing increase in the number of
leased aircraft is making the management of
engine return condition ever more important.
Lessors requirements for MRO contracts to be
tailored for specific engines rather than for par-
ticular operators are creating significant
changes. Meanwhile, the rapid growth of the
airline industries in China, India, Brazil and
Russia, the CIS nations, and Latin American
countries is changing the face of the engine
MRO business geographically.
No less important is the emergence of the
low-cost airline sector, as well as consolidation
among legacy carriers. The difficulty the airline
industry overall is finding in shaking off the
effects of the economic crisis as fuel prices
continue to fluctuate is forcing more airlines to
outsource their engine MRO business. Even
while this is going on, some big carriers are
bringing more business in-house, often through
joint ventures with OEMs. And, as new engines
become more complex and technologically
advanced, OEMs are increasingly controlling
the MRO aftermarkets for their products.
At the same time, airlines seek cost savings
wherever they can be found and are putting
pressure on engine MRO providers OEMs
and independents alike. Meanwhile, more air-

lines have access to new aircraft with new
engines, and many carriers operating older
engines are doing so for shorter periods so
MRO shops must adjust the services they offer
to meet a growing desire among operators of
older aircraft for short-term repairs rather than
full overhauls. Long-term total care contracts
are becoming more widespread and more
engines are being torn down or traded rather
than repaired.
The changes taking place
Its not like it is moving in one direction
a couple of different business models are
being applied by different players in the mar-
ket, says Frank Walschot, SVP of engine main-
tenance for SR Technics.
We see increasing demand for OEM MRO
support or long-term overhaul service agree-
ments, says Brian Ovington, senior marketing
manager, services for GE Aviation. Rolls-Royce
and IAE [already] have a large penetration in
long-term agreements on their current models,
but Pratt & Whitney is going to market with its
service offering alongside the geared turbofan.
CFM [International] is providing services
directly by offering customers long-term agree-
ments with its new LEAP engine.
According to MTU Maintenance, airlines
financial difficulties and a strong shift to
newer aircraft (with new engines) from older
aircraft are creating price pressures and com-
petition for MROs, creating lower demand for
engine-overhaul work. There is also stronger
demand for leased engines, as airlines buy
fewer spare engines of newer models.
Operators are also demanding financing or
sale/leasebacks of spare engines and rota-
bles; and to save cash they try to shift the
financial risk of engine operation as much as
they can to the MRO provider.
For older engine types, MRO payment
plans are changing from power-by-the-hour
contracts to fixed-price contracts or time-and-
material contracts, according to MTU
Maintenance. For newer engines, there is a
trend towards so-called payment per event
contracts, where the agreed fixed rate typi-
cally also on a flying-hour or cycle basis is
paid at the time of the shop visit, rather than
in advance or monthly. The company says
there is also growing demand for alternatives
to using new parts. These alternatives range
from buying single used parts (a relatively
high-cost option) to tearing more engines
down, in order to swap modules to create one
serviceable engine from several unservice-
able powerplants.
Another alternative is to trade out engines
which require repair or whose life-limited parts
(LLPs) require replacement, rather than over-
hauling them. Pedro Pedroso, general manager
of engine sales for TAP Maintenance &
Engineerings marketing & sales department, is
seeing more exchanges of older engine types
needing repair by serviceable engines removed
from parked aircraft, as these are still avail-
able. He says outsourcing of engine MRO work
by airlines will probably increase, because
new engine types have high shop investment
costs, high shop logistic cost, and increasing
technology input.
For engines in the second and third stages
of their life, operators are getting more savvy
on workscopes and parts, says Brian Neff,
owner and CEO of CTS Engine Services, a Fort
A continuing increase in the
number of leased aircraft is
making the management of
engine return condition ever
more important.

Lauderdale-based CF6-50 and CF6-80 repair
specialist. Neff, formerly CEO of cargo operator
Southern Air, says his airline often found when
sending engines out that MRO providers would
perform (and bill for) a full overhaul as a matter
of course rather than just performing the repair
that was actually needed. Now, airlines are
looking for someone more flexible regarding
having someone say that only a modular repair
is required rather than a full overhaul.
As fuel prices keep going up and OEM
prices increase each year [by] about six to eight
per cent, the MRO industry is unpredictable
and everyone is looking to maximise value for
every dollar spent, says Charlie Rey, SVP of
sales & logistics for Miami-based F.J. Turbine
Power. A lot of MROs in Miami have closed due
to the economy. For the next 10 years, as old
aircraft like the MD-80, the 737-200 or 737-
300 get retired, there will be a reduction in
engine inductions. New engines being pro-
duced will stay on-wing longer which means
fewer engines for the OEM and the third-party
MRO to work. For example, a CFM56-7B logged
40,000 hours without a single removal.
Longer on-wing times
Walschot says that not only do new engines
stay on wing longer, but after their first shop
visits the repaired engines stay longer on-wing
than older types did. Today, first-run engines
usually come off-wing as a result of LLP life lim-
itation, not because of a deteriorating exhaust-
gas temperature (EGT) margin or another hard-
ware condition. For leased aircraft, particularly,
this creates a situation for operators that
requires careful decision-making.
Should the operator replace the LLPs
which can cost as much as $2m and not
obtain all of the useful life from the new LLPs
before the engines next scheduled shop visit
or its lease return? Or should the operator
replace the run-out LLPs with others contain-
ing only enough life to see the engine through
to its next scheduled shop visit? The latter
choice means the operator attempting to
match the aircrafts scheduling to the remain-
ing life on the replacement LLPs often by
having the aircraft operate longer flights in
order to keep its utilisation high.
Management of these variables to ensure a
level of continuity in flight operations is a skill
that has been one of the key factors in the
success of some low-cost carriers, says
Walschot: They take the last half-degree of
EGT margin out of the engine before it goes
back to the lessor.
Most engines have now transitioned to on-
condition maintenance programmes, giving air-
lines (and lessors) the ability to develop
maintenance programmes which range from
being very proactive to extremely reactive, says
Jen McNeill, acting SVP, airlines and fleets for
StandardAero. McNeill says the increasing
capability of remote diagnostics and trend mon-
itoring allow powerplant engineers to monitor
engine performance, to schedule shop visits
which previously occurred on an unscheduled
basis, and to develop surgical workscopes
that fix deficiencies without having to tear down
the entire engine.
Interestingly, we see customers evaluating
the cost of preventive maintenance against the
benefits of increased time on-wing, says
McNeill. For those who decide the benefits of
preventive maintenance and upgrades are
worth the up-front cost, we are seeing
According to MTU Maintenance, airlines financial difficulties and a strong shift to newer aircraft are creating price pressures and competition for
MROs, creating lower demand for engine-overhaul work.

benefits of preventive
maintenance and upgrades are
worth the up-front cost, we are
seeing increased engine
reliability.

increased engine reliability. Additionally, as
an MRO facility, we have found that we have to
be able to quantify the costs and benefits of
proactive versus reactive engine maintenance
to our customers. We are also required to have
a workforce that is flexible and can adapt to the
variation in our customers maintenance pro-
grammes.
Outsourcing of engine MRO
MRO providers generally agree that the
outsourcing of engine MRO by airlines will
grow. MTU Maintenance says this is the nat-
ural result of engines becoming more com-
plex and their materials more advanced; as
OEMs increasingly aim to control their after-
markets; and as airlines focus more closely
on their core businesses. There are only a
limited number of providers that will be able
to access both the required technology and
licenses for newer engines, and obtain
economies of scale and capital to justify such
programme entries. Of course, some airlines
will continue to in-source, mostly in develop-
ing countries and especially when govern-
ment backing and financing is available, the
company says.
Indeed, In emerging areas like the Middle
East and China, where the fleets are growing
more rapidly, some airlines are transitioning
from an outsourcing model to one where they
are growing indigenous MRO capabilities, says
GE Aviations Ovington. Airlines are building
new facilities not only to help them maintain
their expanding engine fleets but also to build
a technology base to diversify industrial capa-
bilities in-country.
At present, older engines are facing strong
replacement by newer aircraft and engines,
says MTU Maintenance. This is leading to a
short-to-medium-term trough in demand for
some shops, as older engines no longer
require MRO and newer types enjoy a honey-
moon period of, typically, six to seven-plus
years. All in all, even though the engine MRO
market is growing together with steadily grow-
ing fleets in service, engines will see less shop
visits during their life cycles and their opera-
tions within a certain operator. A given engine
might not even see a shop visit at all with its
first operator.
Even as engines age, their on-wing time
will remain high, says Neff. As an engine gets
older, people understand it better. You get a
tribal knowledge of an engine that comes with
operating it for 20 years. For ageing engines
such as the CF6-50 and mature engines such
as the CF6-80, specialists like CTS Engines can
prove a valuable resource for operators. If
theres a problem, you can call us and we can
help you so the engine can stay on wing rather
than coming off for overhaul, says Neff. If the
OEM does a tech insertion [upgrade], that cer-
tainly extends time on wing, too.
Technological advance: a barrier
to entry?
Technological advance is a key factor in
determining the future shape of the engine
MRO business. GE and CFM, for example, tend
to design for longer time on wing, which
means fewer shop visits and less need for
MRO capacity, notes Ovington. Designing for
reliability and fuel-efficiency means using
advanced systems integration and component
geometry, as well as advanced materials and
coatings. New engine models will require
advanced repair processes; and as a result GE
and CFM are investing significantly to ensure
these will be available.
Because of the high reliability and per-
formance expectations on new engines, youll
see tighter control over the licensing of these
advanced repairs, to ensure engines operate
to the expectations of the OEM product com-
mitment, says Ovington. Airlines also recog-
nise that more advanced engine designs bring
a certain level of uncertainty in future mainte-
nance costs. Therefore, more airlines are sign-
ing long-term service agreements much earlier
than in the past. This allows them to lock in
their maintenance costs in order to ensure
engine performance improvements are
realised. GE now has a $60bn backlog of
engine-maintenance contracts, in large part
because of customers signing long-term agree-
ments. We need to ensure that our MRO net-
work can fulfil on our long-term service
commitments.
SR Technics thinks the technological
advances introduced in new engines will prove
a major barrier to entry for independent
MROs. Accordingly, the companys key busi-
ness strategy is to align itself with OEMs as a
licensed repair station, but to keep itself
apart enough from them to be able to offer
customers an independent MRO alternative to
the long-term total-care packages sold by
OEMs. Such packages are often comprehen-
sive, but they can be costly and not all opera-
tors like them.
Through technological advance and total-
care agreements, OEMs have gradually eroded
their affiliated shops and independent MROs
share of the total market over the past two
decades to the point where such shops now
control between only 15 to 20 per cent of the
market. However, Neff thinks that share is
pretty much going to stay the same in coming
years, as operators look to keep costs down
wherever possible.
Non-OEM shops still needed
One reason for this belief is that independ-
ent and airline-affiliated shops will be needed
TAP Maintenance & Engineering believe outsourcing of engine MRO work by airlines will probably
increase.

merely to offer an alternative to the OEMs, par-
ticularly for older engine types. As an airline
we have to lead the changes to improve our
own results, with an impact on the customer
base, says TAP Maintenance & Engineerings
Pedroso. We are always trying to find ways to
change, e.g. by increasing in-house repair capa-
bility, and process improvement lean, et
cetera applied to maintenance, logistics and
all areas of the company.
Another reason such shops will be needed
is that many operators will continue to pick up
older aircraft and engines on relatively short-
term leases from lessors, creating a large MRO
requirement from the operators and the
lessors themselves. By using proxies in the
form of licensed MROs, engine OEMs will be
able to participate profitably in this market.
GE has changed its network structure from
all-OEM-owned MRO facilities to having a nice
mix of OEM, airline and third-party providers in
our network, says Ovington. This allows our
customers greater flexibility on where they
receive OEM-quality workscope and material.
As OEMs, GE and CFM are responsible for
forecasting the spares and component-repair
needs of their engines when their powerplants
start requiring heavy maintenance. Ovington
says the companies have improved their MRO
forecasting and customer-engagement prac-
EYB2012 Editorial 144p_144p version 02/11/2011 12:00 Page 74
75 The Engine Yearbook 2012
tices to provide advance insights into future
demand for materials and repairs, and ensure
materials are available as MRO needs
emerge. GE introduces about 1,000 repair
offerings a year on its product lines and has
more than 100 specific repairs already devel-
oped for the GEnx as the engine enters service
in mid-September.
Customers needs are changing
Cost-reduction and other factors are changing
MRO customers needs. For one thing, McNeill
says that the increasing proportion of lease air-
craft in the marketplace has elevated the role of
lessors in the maintenance transaction, and
lease return conditions play an important role in
establishing engine MRO workscopes.
Additionally, customers have become
more cost-sensitive since the crisis, a demand
we try to fulfil by offering customised and
financially optimised contracts as well as
developing repairs for high-cost items rather
than replacing, notes MTU Maintenance. For
older engine types, the company is working on
increasing used-parts usage, which we partly
source in by actively tearing down engines. We
have also worked out fixed-price workscopes
as well as bag-and-tag solutions for cus-
tomers no longer wanting to overhaul, but sim-
ply to swap, serviceable engines.
Neff, meanwhile, says there is fairly con-
stant pressure by the customer to be involved
in the process. We believe customer involve-
ment at all stages is a very good thing. Were
very happy to have the customer come in and
source things and price things, to help keep
their MRO costs down. We want customers
to be aware of whats going on with their
engines and to put out the best product we
can.
GE is seeing that, for new engines, cus-
tomers are asking for more spare-engine sup-
port. As our engines have become more
reliable with longer time-on-wing, many cus-
tomers dont want to invest capital in large spare-
engine fleets. So customers are looking for an
OEM spare pool to help when they need a spare,
says Ovington. Customers who operate mature
engines also have evolving spare-engine options.
Spare-engine availability has increased as older
planes retire engines are available to run off
green time, lease rates are low, and more MROs
are offering free or low-rate-lease engines to win
shop visits.
As MROs capabilities have grown, cus-
tomers have passed more risk to the MROs by
demanding ever-more-stringent guarantees on
repaired engines, says Walschot. Ten years ago
you would see 1,500-to-5,000-hour warranties.
Now 15,000 hours is normal, depending on the
engine model. The customer also tries to pass
lease-return conditions on to the MRO, by a guar-
antee that the engine will meet the lease-return
criteria. Under these conditions, you have to
have a long-term agreement and a significant
number of engines under contract, but the oper-
ator requires a lower cost of ownership.
This has made engine condition monitoring
more important to MROs, which are requiring
operators to accept real-time monitoring of their
engines through monitoring centres run by the
MROs themselves. Contracts have become more
complicated theres no such thing as a stan-
dard contract anymore, says Walschot. Theres
price pressure on the MRO, but the operator has
to make a longer-term commitment, so the MRO
can put in an engine condition monitoring system
there. But, for the MRO, the risks are still there if
you make a mistake in your calculations and
assumptions. Fast-changing though it may be,
the engine MRO business is a risky one.
A key requirement for engine MROs is to have a workforce that is flexible and can adapt to the variation in customers maintenance programmes,
according to StandardAero.

I
t may seem a trite observation, but it speaks
volumes: the overhaul bill for an engine is
divided mainly between the labour needed
and the cost of the exchanged parts. While
human input and man hours are a constant fac-
tor, the volume of the various engine parts,
modules and systems to be replaced is subject
to a degree of fluctuation.
An MRO operator, working closely with man-
ufacturers, can implement initiatives designed
to minimise the quantity and cost involved. A
calculation known and understood by all is that
the more often one repairs an engine, the less
new parts are needed and the greater the profit
earned from the powerplant.
When it comes to cutting engine mainte-
nance costs, the emphasis is mainly placed on
the development of in-house repair capabili-
ties, says Rodolphe Parisot, AFI KLM E&M
head of engine part strategy.
Rather than sub-contracting out work on
certain parts and hence racking up costs for
the customer, we seek to develop and industri-
alise a repair process within our own company,
naturally allocating dedicated personnel and
engineering resources to it.
AFI KLM E&M included this insourcing phi-
losophy in its strategy several years ago, not
only as a means of integrating its services and
capabilities, but also in direct response to the
needs expressed by airlines and the engine
maintenance market. The group has now main-
streamed the idea throughout its engine main-
tenance network. Thus, its CRMA subsidiary in
The Engine Yearbook 2012
Overhauling an aircraft engine is a considerable expense for an airline, adding up to millions of
dollars per shop visit. The cost of overhauling a medium-range engine, for example, is anywhere
between two and three million dollars. Although advances in technology and engineering
resources benefit modern powerplants which have significantly longer lifespans, better reliability
and longer mean times between maintenance the maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) of
aircraft engines remains a major element of airline cost bases. In response, MRO companies are
constantly developing new solutions to minimise maintenance costs for their customers.
The secret to minimising
engine maintenance costs
Elancourt, France, which specialises in repair-
ing specific engine parts and modules, most
notably combustion chambers and turbine cen-
tre frames, offers its capabilities with the CF6,
CFM56, GE90 and GP7200 engine families. By
virtue of a co-operation agreement between AFI
KLM E&M and Engine Alliance, CRMA is now a
Primary Source repair shop for GP7200 com-
bustors and turbine centre frames.
Developing integrated on-site
MRO capabilities
The combustion chamber is a vital part of
the engine, essential to its performance and
reliability. It demands high levels of technical
expertise and state-of-the-art facilities for tear-
down and re-assembly. Because of the specific

emphasis is mainly placed on

E&M head of engine part
strategy.
nature and advanced technology of the parts,
repairs to the combustion chamber can rapidly
lead to a need to replace defective or damaged
parts.
Increasingly, however, more thought is turn-
ing towards the design and implementation of
new procedures and capabilities. CRMA began
working with very big engines at a very early
stage, and has pursued a pro-active policy of
developing new repair processes for many
years with the assistance of the dozen engi-
neers working in its development & design
office, says Parisot.
Leveraging this policy and focusing on a lim-
ited number of engine components, CRMA has
earned a reputation as a centre of excellence, and
its engine shop is currently able to offer cus-
tomers on-site, full-service treatment for combus-
tion chambers, notably those of the GE90-94.
For airlines, the repair industrialisation and
development programmes that are becoming
increasingly common at MROs are a solution to
reliability problems and minimising engine over-
haul costs. For the operators who deploy them,
although these programmes involve lengthy
tooling-up periods and large-scale investment,
this is rapidly recouped by the opportunities and
the additional workscopes they attract. Each
year, CRMA receives and overhauls 300 to 400
combustion chambers at its engine shop.
It took the Elancourt-based company three
years to develop the process for changing the
multi-hole outer liner on a GE90-94 combustion
chamber, with two engineers working full-time
on the project. The task involves drilling close
to 28,000 holes with a diameter under 1mm
(the dilution holes through which the flow of
new air is injected into the combustion cham-
ber) spaced just 2.5mm apart. The engine
shop accordingly invested $2m in a YAG laser
to drill holes a few dozen micrometres in diam-
eter at speeds of up to several hundred opera-
tions a second. Trained to use the laser by its
manufacturer, CRMA staff run the laser round
the clock and can now carry out the multi-hole
drilling operation in just three days. Following a
qualification period, completed in 2010, the
outer liner repair process is currently in the
middle of its industrialisation phase.
Thanks to the acquisition of cutting-edge
technical skills in-house and of suitable indus-
trial equipment, the process paved the way for
substantial cost savings for airlines, which
were no longer forced to buy a new spare part.
It also delivers some substantial gains in terms
of repair lead-times by leapfrogging the time
needed to obtain supplies of critical parts,
which can sometimes cause bottlenecks in the
engine re-assembly process.
Repair shops benefit from this approach,
too, putting them in a comfortable position to
carry out repair development under Design
Organisation Approval to create specific, safe
and reliable repair solutions. In the case of
Electron beam welding technology is used to create new, more effective repairs.

repairs to the outer liners, modifications were
made to make it possible to simultaneously
drill the base plate of the outer liner and its
thermal barrier coating.
CRMA is currently continuing this develop-
ment programme so that it can offer the same
product for the GE90-115 powerplant.
New players in the aircraft maintenance
market must also be prepared to gear up for
the emergence of new products and expand
their catalogue of services, while never losing
sight of the maintenance cost reduction imper-
ative. As a result, continually upgrading the
industrial base has to be a priority if an MRO is
to be able to reconcile these demands.
Thoroughly modern repairs
Another way of insourcing capabilities and
creating new ones is to leverage available tech-
nology. At the same time as the architecture of
engine parts has evolved considerably in
recent years, the resources and tools used to
keep parts serviceable are being transformed
and are riding the same technological wave.
AFI KLM E&M rapidly assessed the oppor-
tunities presented by electron beam welding
(EBW) and, undeterred by the considerable
investment required, the MROs Amsterdam
engine shop equipped the system in 2010. At
that point, there was no shortage of repair
capability development prospects and these
have now become a reality. With this method,
AFI KLM E&M can safe supports frames, shafts
and similar items. Until very recently, these
repairs were either unavailable or subcon-
tracted out, so that MROs had limited control
over costs and turnaround time (TAT).
Rene Scholten, in charge of engine repairs
development and industrialisation at AFI KLM
E&M, says: Electron beam welding technology
is used to create new, more effective repairs. It
means we can both re-condition expensive
parts rather than replacing them, and boost
their useful lifespan. For customers, the bene-
fit also shows up in a substantial reduction in
total cost of ownership.
The technology behind this solution involves
bombarding the part being worked on with a
dense beam of electrons on a precise spot
(less than 0.5mm
?
) to create the weld. This is
an automated process carried out in a vacuum
chamber to avoid any oxidation or dust con-
tamination. As a result, it delivers extremely
clean welds that can be repeated at any time
for a standard quality level, without distorting
the part and with a significantly reduced risk of
subsequent cracking.
The system comprises a mobile electron
beam gun used in a vacuum chamber, a
manipulator arm, and a high-voltage energy
source. The programmers and welders who oper-
ate the system at AFI KLM E&M have all been
trained to use it and operate the CNC control
panel by manufacturer Sciaky. Deployment was
preceded by unprecedented preparations in the
workshop, with the installation of an air extrac-
tion system and ducting, the deployment of a
150-metre, 300A power cable, and the layout of
an area nine metres square to house the weld-
ing chamber.
The initial investment is substantial,
says Rene Scholten. But the opportunities
opened up by the new technology are ample
justification for the decision. For an MRO like
AFI KLM E&M, it simultaneously represents
the possibility of generating synergies at
repair flow level, adding to our stock of know-
how and skills for the benefit of our staff, and
creating additional workscopes in-house.
Thanks to EBW we are continually developing
new capabilities and can now offer high-tech
work that we wouldnt be able to offer using
conventional welding techniques. For cus-
tomers, the acquisition of this technology is a
guarantee of lower repair bills and improved
service quality.
Although engine manufacture has advanced
considerably, meaning extended operational
lifespans, aircraft powerplants are nevertheless
subject to a number of inevitable limitations in
Electron beam welding technology allows expensive parts to be reconditioned rather than replaced.

flight situations. In addition to the ability to
adjust their industrial resources (tooling and
repair systems and procedures) MROs are also
able to develop remedial methods that limit part
wear and tear and the need for replacement.
Trim balance, reliable engines,
and lower costs: the magic
formula
Used for the past year and more by AFI KLM
E&M staff on CF6 and CFMI engines, core trim
balancing involves placing OEM-supplied bal-
ance weights inside the engine to reduce vibra-
tion, without the need to completely tear down
the engine. To add the weight, mechanics need
to be able to access the engine by removing an
engine component either the low pressure
turbine (LPT) or the high pressure compressor
top case to balance the high pressure shaft.
Its this second option that is used for CFM56-
7B engines.
The procedure, which did not feature in the
engine manual, was developed in conjunction
with General Electric and has already been
used on 13 engines. Core trim balance is now
an integral part of the AFI KLM E&M capability
portfolio and is also used on the spares in the
groups engine pool.
Initially a vibration signature is recorded in
a test cell using an optical light probe and an
electronic signal conditioner which processes
the signal, says Rob Duivis, AFI KLM E&M sen-
ior powerplant engineer. A computer program
then identifies the level of vibrations and the
required balance weight location and mass.
The engine then goes on the hospital line at
the Schiphol Engine shop (which carries out
only a limited range of light repairs) for instal-
lation of the calculated balance weights. Finally
the engine will return to the engine test cell for
retesting.
The same procedure is also applied to
engines that fail vibration testing after a shop
visit. In fact, we designed the process to
reduce the number of test cell rejects due to
vibration after a shop visit, explains Duivis.
Increasingly, we are focusing our efforts on
optimising engine build-up processes in order
to minimise imbalance levels and in so doing
reduce vibration that calls for time-consuming
and costly teardowns and retesting.
For engine operators the process reduces
the need for complete teardown, unless the
engine is near its high time and close to a
scheduled shop visit. Secondly, there is less
need to replace engine parts, TAT is shorter
and costs for airlines are reduced. The average
TAT for an engine that needs balancing follow-
ing a test-cell run-up is two to three weeks
longer. But with core trim balancing, TAT is
reduced to a few days. The savings are mainly
in man hours but above all, the parts are less
exposed to vibration, reducing wear and tear
and keeping the engines flying!
Thanks to electron beam
welding we are continually
developing new capabilities
and can now offer high-tech
work that we wouldnt be able
to offer using conventional
welding techniques.

T
he life of an engine is far from over once
it makes its final journey on an airframe.
Just as there are opportunities to extend
human life through organ donorship, there are
also parts on aircraft engines that can be
reused to bring new life to otherwise unser-
viceable powerplants. This requires complete
teardown of an engine; evaluation of the
installed units; and inspection or rework of an
engines LLPs (life limited parts).
The process should also incorporate identi-
fication of components for use in supporting
other engine overhauls or available to be mar-
keted and sold to operators in supporting the
requirements of their line maintenance. Engine
teardown is a coordinated effort that offers
maintenance organisations opportunities for
both internal and external customers.
Once an owner of an aircraft engine makes
the decision to tear down an engine with little
life left, or an engine that requires teardown
because of time/cycle run-out, it must be deter-
mined who is to do the work. There are several
places globally that offer this service but few, if
any, offer teardown of all engine types. It is not
feasible for a company to have such a wide
capability because of the high cost of training,
tooling and acquiring required manuals.
Major carriers generally support their own
fleets and while some outsource what they con-

Engine teardown, while not as intense as buildup, is a challenging industry that helps companies
realise millions of dollars in cost savings by making available those parts that still have
serviceable life. It supports both engine buildup and line operations and plays a role in engine
leasing, aircraft leasing and air carrier operations. Joe Mras, general manager of Turbine Support
International, describes the teardown process and the pitfalls awaiting inexperienced operators.

sider overflow, others also market teardowns if
the engine type corresponds to one on which
that already have capability. Most teardown
facilities specialise in a few models. Some are
teardown facilities only and have no FAA rating,
but there are a few that also are Part 145 cer-
tified and qualified to determine serviceability
and tag parts with 8130s making them readily
available for use. Other than the major carriers,
teardown in the United States is performed by
companies in various locations such as
Arkansas, Florida, Michigan, and Texas.
While business plans and processes differ
between teardown facilities, the general con-
cept of what has to be done is the same. Prior
to the receipt of an engine, a complete review
of the workscope must be accomplished with
the owner of the engine contracting the tear-
down. Some owners wish only for major mod-
ules be torn down and processed, locally
scrapping those parts not readily marketable.
Others may require that all parts be returned. A
teardown facility must remain flexible and
adapt to the needs and requirements of the
customer as not only are requirements differ-
ent from customer to customer, each customer
will probably have different requirements from
engine to engine.
Receiving an engine for teardown
Once an engine arrives at a teardown facil-
ity, it is usually met by staff who take pictures
of it. The complete array of pictures identifies
the condition of the engine, care given to
engine in transport (tarped, air-ride, shrink
wrapped, etc.), and verification of engine serial
number. Once photos are completed, it is then
offloaded, awaiting induction.
Prior to the induction of an engine into a
facility, the workscope already defined by the
customer must be conveyed to the produc-
tion line. A review of the paperwork is per-
formed as confirmation that all items needed
to complete the teardown are readily accessi-
ble and functional. Items such as specific tear-
down instructions, special handling, special
routing, special packaging and parts for the
customer are a must to ensure proper flow of
the teardown.
Once inducted into the facility, an engine
again goes through a series of inspections prior
to having any tools start the disassembly. The
engines serial number is again verified, and pic-
tures again taken of the engine while hanging
off the stand. Inventories are taken of the com-
ponents that are easily accessible without dis-
assembly serial numbers verified against
records received with the engine. Any discrep-
ancies must be cleared to ensure traceability of
the components prior to being used on any
other engine. Once this is done, the engine can
then enter into the teardown process.
Teardown is a systematic process that
requires vigilance, patience, mechanical apti-

tude, proper tooling, and knowledge of not only
the manuals, but how to properly read them.
Failure to do things properly, improper tooling,
lack of professionalism from mechanics, lack
of training, are only a few of the things that, if
present during engine teardown, will result in
delays, damage and increased liability. An
established quality programme will aid in iden-
tification of improvements needed in teardown
induction or other areas such as shipping.
Depending on the needs of customers,
items such as brackets and tubes can be
scrapped locally, while others are identified and
tagged. During the teardown process, the
engine is broken down into modules and each
module is then individually broken down into its
subcomponents for further disassembly.
Proper planning and equipment is key to proper
teardown. Tooling specific to the individual
steps must not be substituted with unapproved
techniques as it will lead to damaged parts,
which may or may not be recoverable.
Once removed, each part is identified,
inventoried, and tagged. Priority parts requiring
special handling are inventoried and processed
at this point or any point beyond this and prior
to general packing and crating of the remainder
of the engine. Parts removed must be segre-
gated by engine serial number and at no time
should parts be allowed to intermingle with
parts from two different engines, regardless of
room constraints. This should be included in a
daily audit by the quality personnel. Facilities
with cleaning lines and NDT (non-destructive
testing) capabilities may elect to start that
process at any point after part removal that
meets shop production flow or customer
requirements.
In a perfect world, everything would be easy
but that is not necessarily the case in engine
disassembly. Some parts need heating while
others require dry ice to cool and contract to
allow removal. If an engine has had an internal
failure, documented procedures are not avail-
able to guide mechanics through disassembly.
Only the knowledge of engines and experience
in teardown will enable mechanics through
completion of the process. At times, especially
with internal failures, approval needs to be
sought from engine owners prior to attempting
undocumented processes to avoid liability
should things go awry. It is during these times
that contact with the customer is essential and
joint thinking might be best for positive results.
Packaging and shipping
As the engine modules are torn down fur-
ther and the teardown nears completion, the
process enters a critical stage: packaging and
crating. Parts handled lovingly through the tear-
down process could easily be damaged if not
properly handled through this final process.
One should not scrimp to save a few bucks
here it could result in potential damage. The

Teardown facilities that are licensed Part
145 facilities have gone a step further than
uncertified facilities: as parts are removed and
cleaned, NDT is performed where required,
allowing the facility to deem the part servicea-
ble if it passes testing. Of course, those shops
also come under continued scrutiny from the
FAA and EASA (if certified). These visits and
audits add another add another guarantee that
the facility has both adequate quality and train-
ing programmes in place a plus for any cus-
tomer.
The teardown market
Keeping abreast of market needs is a key to
the survival and growth of a teardown facility.
Teardown facilities make major investments to
support their business plans and the business
plans of their customers. Tooling specific to
each engine type coupled with the cost of cur-
rent publications costs hundreds of thousands
of dollars for each engine type. To tool up for
engines on dying fleets or to choose an engine
type that already has fierce competition for
teardown and fail to gather enough customers
to support tooling costs, could lead to the
demise of a company. While competitive, there
is plenty of room in the teardown industry for
teardown facilities to help each other with
loaned tooling and even referrals if one party is
not able to meet immediate requirements of
customers.
Those companies that do choose the right
model can expect long-term gains as teardown
facilities will continue to serve a vital role as
long as there is a need for used, serviceable
and reworked parts.
key word here is potential. If there is potential
for a part to be damaged, it is probably not
being packaged correctly. This is the final step
in the quality process as prior to packing and
preparation for shipment, shipping personnel
must ensure that everything is properly tagged,
that tags are complete, and all parts are prop-
erly recorded in the box or crate. Again, this is
handled according to the individual needs of
the customer, who might require drop shipping
or packing by module. All larger parts must be
secured in place to prevent movement during
shipping. It is crazy not to put an extra $5-worth
of shipping material around a part that will cost
$100,000 upwards if damaged.
The final step is shipping. Once the truck
arrives to ship parts out, care must again be
taken to get all parts inventoried and secured.
Pictures again are a good idea to make sure
items left the facility in a favourable condition.
Training is a necessity. There are no
mechanic licenses required to do engine tear-
down. There is no requirement to be a Part 145
facility. That does not lessen the need for
proper training to adequately do engine tear-
down. A customer has a right to, and should
require documentation to indicate that the per-
sonnel that are accomplishing teardown for
them are properly trained. Training in use of part
identification and manual use will result in fewer
errors on documentation (which could affect
traceability), reduced delays, and increased pro-
ductivity. The savings from that are best for all.
Damaged parts due to improper tool training
has been proven to be costly. Also, well-trained
staff have higher morale, resulting in higher
quality and increased productivity.

ith a global fleet of more than 4,000
in-service engines, the type is obvi-
ously of significant interest to engine
repair shops. Moreover, there is still an impres-
sive order backlog and the IAE manufacturing
consortium of Pratt & Whitney and Rolls-Royce
has decided to bring out an even more fuel-effi-
cient variant, the V2500 SelectTwo. For that rea-
son, Lufthansa Technik puts a lot of effort into
devising ways of steadily improving the on-wing
time of the engine through intelligent proce-
dures. Components that are critical to the life
cycle of the engine are identified using the lat-
est methods, such as CFD analysis, so that the
reasons for any excessive wear and tear can be
ascertained. On the basis of a wealth of knowl-
edge about the complex interactions inside the
engine, it is possible to develop repair methods
that reduce wear and tear in the long run, bring-
ing cost advantages to the operator.
The maintenance of an engine is determined
by three main factors: life-limited parts (LLPs),
wear-induced engine removals and unscheduled
engine removals. The LLP limitation means that
a component is only certified for a maximum
number of cycles (takeoffs and landings), and
when that limit is reached it has to be replaced.
The main indicator of the second factor, wear-
induced engine removal, is a decline in exhaust
gas temperature (EGT) margin. The art lies in
designing an optimal maintenance schedule for
the customer that utilises the full life of LLPs
while at the same time scheduling any part
replacements to coincide with wear-induced
The Engine Yearbook 2012
Lufthansa Techniks involvement with the V2500-A5 goes back many years. The first engine in
the series, serial number V10001, flew for a short time on a Lufthansa aircraft back in 1989.
The first engine to be used on a long-term basis at Lufthansa bore the serial number V10018

maintenance
engine removals. For example, it may be sensi-
ble to actually replace an LLP before its certified
life has expired if the engine has to be taken
apart anyway for wear-induced reasons a little
earlier. An optimal maintenance plan also takes
into account the circumstances under which an
engine is operated. The climatic zone in which
the engine spends most of its time flying has a
significant impact on its condition. The manner
of use, for example the average running time, is
a major factor in determining wear and tear.
Maintaining lessor and lessee

Lufthansa Techniks engineers have done a
great deal workscoping on the V2500. The
company has been maintaining the engines of

its sister company, Lufthansa Passage, over
their entire life cycles for decades. Based on
positive experience and synergy effects arising
from this all-round service, experts have drawn
up a requirements profile for the typical lease
engine. They were interested in whether a
maintenance plan would produce lower overall
costs over the full life cycle of a lease engine
compared with the situation where mainte-
nance is performed on a piecemeal basis by
individual lessees.
Normally an engine has to meet a previously
agreed condition at the end of the lease period.
It is logical that the lessee wants the mainte-
nance provider to perform the minimum work
necessary to meet that condition, though every
engine user optimises things for himself. But
as we know, the sum of the individual optima is
not the same as the global optimum. Lufthansa
Techniks engineers demonstrated this by
examining the life cycle more closely.
In the investigation the engineers made the
realistic assumption that in the course of its
life the typical engine would pass through the
hands of five lessees, who would fly it in differ-
ent climate zones with different flight profiles.
Such an engine would normally visit the shop
five times in the course of its life: one visit at
the end of each leasing period plus one addi-
tional visit during a lease period. Each mainte-
nance event costs a considerable amount of
money.
If one now draws up an optimal mainte-
nance plan to cover the entire service life of a
lease engine, one discovers that only four shop
visits are actually necessary. It even pays the
lessee not to take the engine into the shop at
all during the term of his lease.
In short, experts established that consider-
able amounts of money and time could be
saved if maintenance follows a plan designed
to cover the full service life of the engine. In the
case of the V2500 this cuts the costs by 20
per cent. A further 10 per cent is saved on
LLPs. The lessor can pass the cost savings
directly on to its customer, enabling it to offer
more competitive prices an advantage that
Lufthansa Technik tries to convince leasing
companies of.
Lufthansa Technik offers an advanced
workscoping service where it assures the cus-
tomer that only the work that produces the
maximum benefit to that customer will actually
be performed. One element of this is the surgi-
cal strike, a minimal intervention in case of
unforeseen minor damage. With the surgical
strike, instead of a major shop visit only the
work that is essential is carried out. In the case
of the V2500, for example, this procedure is
used to replace bearing three, which in the past
has had to be replaced due to production prob-
lems. Another very important element of
advanced workscoping is predictive planning.
Here, the aim is to delay the next scheduled
shop visit as much as possible by performing
certain workscopes in advance.
Combustors and fuel nozzles
It is not just clever workscoping that makes
the difference; equally important is the engi-
neering capability to develop innovative, new
methods of work and repair procedures. One
example here is the V2500 combustor.
This has proved to be a limiting factor in the
past, especially on aircraft that operate in
desert regions. On the basis of a full inspection
of the combustor, operators are regularly forced
to send engines to the shop ahead of sched-
ule. Lufthansa Technik quickly established that
engines that are operated in desert regions are
much more heavily affected by wear in the com-
bustor than engines flown in more climatically
moderate zones. But no one could explain the
reason for the more extensive wear. Specialists
therefore decided to perform a simulation
analysis to investigate the flow behavior. In a
lengthy and complex procedure engineers were
able to find out what is actually going on in the
combustor.
It turned out that in the forward area of the
combustor the engine burns the fuel too rich,
as they say in the trade. If kerosene burns too
rich, the remaining fuel burns elsewhere in the
engine. This might be because the air distribu-
tion has been designed in an unfavorable way
or because the fuel is not sufficiently atom-

and unscheduled engine
removals.
ised. As a result certain areas get too hot so
that damage is more likely. In the case of
engines that are operated in the desert, one
further difficulty is that the external tempera-
ture is higher but the air density is lower. This
means that for the same thrust demand
engines are thermodynamically less efficient.
More fuel is required, which only accentuates
the problem of inhomogeneous combustion.
That is to say, the damage sustained by
engines operated in the desert is much greater
than in engines operated in other regions.
The outcome of the simulation was identical
to the situation found on the actual component:
temperatures significantly above the sustainable
material limit caused massive damage to the
combustor. As a result the engine has to go into
the shop more often than is actually necessary.
The analysis of the combustor is a good
example of Lufthansa Techniks approach. We
arent just satisfied with following the OEM
requirements in an expert manner, we want to
understand the engine. For only if we know the
reasons for particular findings can we look for
solutions, explains Christian Werner-Spatz,
systems engineer and specialist in engine per-
formance at Lufthansa Technik. This means
that we occasionally put in extra effort.
Moreover, additional material analysis of the
damaged parts has shown that calcium mag-
nesium aluminum silicon (CMAS) also plays an
important role. This mixture occurs to a greater
extent in desert sand. At the extreme tempera-
tures experienced in the combustor in those
parts, CMAS forms deposits, melts and solidi-
fies. But the actual work of the engine special-
ists of Lufthansa Technik the development
of new coatings has only just begun at this
point. For it is not enough simply to know why
certain places are particularly susceptible to
damage. As a maintainer is powerless to
change the fact that the fuel burns unevenly,
solutions have to be found to make the com-
bustor more robust and hence more durable.
Moreover, the new coating must reliably with-
stand CMAS. A special coating (patent pend-
ing) developed at Lufthansa Technik now
prevents damage caused by CMAS.
Another vulnerability identified in the V2500
over the years has been fuel nozzle guides.
Problems are regularly discovered here during
inspections. In particular, the ring on fuel noz-
zles is susceptible to damage due to high tem-
peratures in the engine interior. To repair this
component, engineers have developed a coat-
ing that protects the component and also a
repair procedure under which the damaged ring
can be removed and replaced by a part devel-
oped in-house a Spare Part Alternative Detail
(SPAD). Because it is certified as a develop-
ment organisation, Lufthansa Technik is able to
manufacture this SPAD in-house and weld it on.
Lufthansa Technik also draws on its wealth
of accumulated knowledge when drawing up

chemical baths need to be held in stock so that
costs can be avoided.
The V2500 is maintained in the pulse line
at Lufthansa Techniks headquarters in
Hamburg, Germany. This hangar, which started
production in 2009 applying lean principles, is
designed as a multi-functional production facil-
ity to overhaul engines of the CFM56 and
V2500 families. Starting off with the CFM56-
5A, -5B, -5C and -7B, at the beginning of 2010
the IAE engine was introduced. The Lufthansa
Technik Groups second competence centre for

same time reducing costs. Recently bmi

maintenance plans for its customers, espe-
cially for customers with desert operations. For
example, this customer group is advised to
send engines to the shop as soon as the first
sign of damage appears. As long as the
defects are still only minor, individual parts are
repairable. And a repair is always cheaper than
installing a new part. In addition, this proce-
dure prevents damage in the combustor from
causing secondary damage in the turbine, the
most expensive component of the engine.
Parts of the high-pressure turbine are non-
repairable or at best can only be repaired to a
limited extent and therefore often have to be
replaced by highly expensive new parts.
Cutting turnaround time
Lufthansa Technik has demonstrated its
know-how over the last few years with another
offering. All V2500 engines had to comply with
an AD by July 2011 to eliminate damage from
oil in the turbine. Normally the manufacturer
requires a shop visit to implement this exten-
sive modification. The work entailed comprises
one internal and one external work package,
together covering 19 service bulletins. Working
with the manufacturer, Lufthansa Technik
offered to perform the external part of the mod-
ification at affected customers sites. This
meant that the modification was carried out on-
site and also on-wing, dispensing with the need
for time-consuming removal of the engine. It
took the Airline Support Team (AST) who spe-
cialise in this kind of work just 48 hours or less
to complete the work on each of approximately
40 engines. As a result, customers were able
to save eight days time in which they did not
have to use a replacement engine as their own
engine was already back on the wing and
hence a lot of money. For it takes eight days
longer to dismantle the engine, transport it to
the workshop, have it repaired there, then
transport it back and reinstall it.
In the repair of V2500 engines Lufthansa
Technik also draws on experience gained from
the overhaul of other engine types. For exam-
ple, many standard processes can be trans-
ferred from one type to another to their mutual
benefit. On the PW4000 the manufacturer
requires water jet stripping to remove the
abradable coat on the shrouds from the high-
pressure turbine. On the V2500, on the other
hand, a chemical procedure is specified.
However, experience gained from this example
has shown that water is a better way of remov-
ing the coating than chemicals as cleaning is
quicker and more thorough. As a development
organisation, Lufthansa Technik uses this
knowledge and is now able to treat the shrouds
more effectively with water. This results not
only in better throughput times, but fewer

O
ver the past 12 years, Kelly Aviation
Center in San Antonio, Texas, has devel-
oped jet engine maintenance capabili-
ties for five different engine lines. For 2011,
Kelly has set its sights on distinguishing itself
in the CF6-80 market. Next year it plans to do
the same in the CFM56 market.
The CF6 was GE Aviations first commercial
widebody engine, and is now 40 years old.
There is an installed base of 4,500, including
about 3,000 of the -80C2 series. The overall
market for the type includes five versions pow-
ering a dozen basic aircraft and several sub-
types, ranging from the McDonnell Douglas
DC-10-10 that introduced the CF6-6 to the
world, to the latest versions on Airbus A330-
200/300.
GE has said it sees another 10 years of pro-
duction for the -80C2 and 15 years for the -
80E, reflecting new aircraft sales and spare
engine requirements.
Entry into the CF6-80 market by Kelly was a
deliberate move, based on a carefully devel-
oped business plan. We capitalised on our
five years of success with the CF6-50 engine,
explains Chuck Artymovich, president of Kelly
Aviation Center. The next logical engine line to
tackle was the CF6-80. Our major challenge
was to change Kelly from a military model to a
blended military-commercial business model.

Since the beginning in 1999, Kelly has
established a strong reputation with the US mil-
itary for service, on-time performance, and sig-
nificantly increased time-on-wing for the TF39,
another engine from which the CF6-80 is
derived. Adding the CF6-80 line meant trans-
forming the shop floor and military-oriented
processes so that both commercial and mili-
tary customers would be efficiently served.
Weve even exceeded their expectations,
says Frank Cowan, commercial aviation serv-
ices director. It is an unusual accomplishment
to be able to perform MRO on six soon
seven commercial and military engine lines
all in one location. But we are doing it and our
customers are happy with the added value of a
longer average time on wing.
For the transformation to be successful,
we had to change a lot of what we do in pro-
duction, but also in marketing, contracting, sup-
ply chain, just about everything, adds Frank
McCall, production operations manager. What
helped us in production is that Kelly mechanics
are very experienced. The CF6-80 engine is a
derivative of the engines they have been work-
ing for years. The tooling and the equipment
are much the same.
The same logic was applied when the deci-
sion was made to enter the CFM56 market by
early 2012. Kelly has been building essen-
tially the same core for F110 engines for the
past seven years, and performing MRO on that
engine, as well, says Artymovich. Once the
decision was made, we acted quickly to acquire
CFM56 tooling and equipment.
Keys to a successful
transformation
Besides building upon years of expertise in
engine lines well-established at Kelly, the com-
pany kept customer service in mind, while plan-
ning a new shop floor layout and developing the
Kelly Performance System, a new management
approach that dramatically speeds up material
flow and significantly increases engine output.
The basic principals of the Kelly
Performance System are understanding
demand, establishing control and managing
pace. A highly disciplined method of maintain-
ing material flow at a consistent pace largely
based on the Theory of Constraints: the idiom
a chain is only as strong as its weakest link
controls flow and, through efficiencies,
greater speed is obtained through the shop.
This is especially important to manage well
when you are dealing with multiple product
lines using shared resources. Couple
enhanced material flow with a new master
scheduling system that integrates all product
lines and the results are impressive.
Even in the face of one customers demand
surge of up to 50 per cent or an additional 33
shop visits at the beginning of last year, Kelly
was positioned to meet that demand with no
changes to schedule and cost and no impact
on other customers.
In addition to fast and reliable turn times,
customers have also expressed satisfaction
with Kellys flexibility. Judging from customer
reaction, Kelly has added another dimension to
the term customised solutions, explains Ron
Moure, customer service manager at Kelly
Aviation Center. We are very open to working
with our customers on whatever they want done
from a complete teardown and overhaul to a
very limited workscope.
The Engine Yearbook 2012
The shop floor at Kelly.

93
That philosophy has proven to be cost
effective and has improved affordability for all
of Kellys customers. Although Kelly has stan-
dard workscopes customers can choose
from, We also provide flexible, highly cus-
tomised workscopes that target specific
maintenance issues which can reduce main-
tenance costs and return value to cus-
tomers, says Moure. Plus, our workforce is
cross-trained on several engine lines, so we
can move crews around, as needed, to keep
engines on schedule.
Moure also believes that the working envi-
ronment and the open relationship between
management and employees have helped him
provide quicker responses to customer needs,
increased efficiencies, and fostered innova-
tions because managers work closely with
direct, hands-on employees to develop innova-
tive solutions to problem solving and imple-
ment many of their ideas.
Field service to the rescue
Another key offering of Kelly Aviation Center
is its experienced field service teams. Field
teams routinely return engines to service at
customer locations, avoiding shop visits that
can drive additional work requirements and
costs, not to mention the safety of spare
engines that result from a quicker return to
service time. Customers save money by avoid-
ing a shop visit for tasks like boroblending, trim
balancing, fan and compressor case replace-
ment, and other repairs. Kellys field service
teams have been of particular value to interna-
tional customers who also benefit from the
avoidance of costly overseas shipping costs
that alone can equate to as much as the field
service call itself.
Kellys got the talent, the flexibility, and the
business stability to deliver what the customer
is looking for, states Artymovich. We do excel-
lent, high-quality work, quickly, and affordably
basically what all engine MRO customers
are looking for. Our CF6-50 customers eagerly
awaited our entry into the CF6-80 market and
those with CFM56 engines are anxiously look-
ing forward to having an alternative repair
source.
Kelly Aviation Center is an affiliate of Lockheed
Martin Corporation and is considered a centre
of excellence for aircraft engine maintenance,
repair and overhaul, currently providing serv-
ices for engines that power the DC-10, 747-
400, 767, A300, A310, A330, C-5, C-130
Hercules, P-3 Orion, F-16 Fighting Falcon, and

OGMAs dedicated engine business pro-
vides a broad spectrum of MRO services for a
range of commercial and military aircraft
engines, though regardless of the task its team
of engineers and technicians always targets a
balance of quality, operational performance,
overall repair cost and time on-wing, while still
offering its customers a one-stop shop solu-
tion.
The company is an authorised maintenance
centre for Embraer and Rolls-Royce and holds

approval and quality certificates including
AS9100, ISO 9001-2008 Quality Management
and AQAP 2110.
OGMAs initial contact with Rolls-Royce
came in the 1980s, overhauling T-56 engines
on C130 Hercules and P-3 Orion aircraft. It
also developed repair and overhaul capabilities
for the Rolls-Royce quick engine change assem-
blies, plus their accessories and components.
As one of the leading independent service cen-
tres for T-56 engines, developing its repair
activity strictly under the International
Airworthiness Regulations umbrella, OGMA can
offer original manufacturer (OEM) parts as well
as parts from other authorised and certified
suppliers, according to client preference and
request. Whatever the customer s choice, all
repair work is carried out according to manu-
facturer and operator procedures, using up-to-
date OEM manuals and other related technical
publications.
Since the 1980s the company has devel-
oped the capability to carry out a set of Rolls-
Royce-approved engine part repairs as well as
to propose different technological repair solu-
tions to the Rolls-Royce engineering technical
committee (including approval waiving), in order
to minimise parts replacement, thus minimis-
ing engine overhaul repair costs for its cus-

The Portuguese companys civil engine
breakthrough arrived in 1993 when it was cer-
tified as a Rolls-Royce authorised maintenance
centre (AMC) for the Rolls-Royce AE 2100
series of turboprop engines used on the SAAB
2000 regional turboprop (as well as military
transports). It also became, at the time, the
only independent European AMC for all com-
mercial and military variants of the Rolls-Royce
AE 3007 turbofan engines, which power
Embraer ERJ135 and ERJ145 regional jets. It
was one of five AMCs which were established
around the world for these engines.
Although 50-seat jets are regarded as old
and relatively inefficient nowadays, a huge num-
ber still remain in service, with Embraer
ERJ135/145 types forming the backbone of
many US regional operators fleets. Being an
Embraer AMC for the ERJ145, OGMA has
repaired a large number of AE 3007A engines
for both civil and military operators, throughout
Europe, North America and Asia. Its capability
to fully overhaul AE 3007 engines, to service
the ERJ135/145s airframe and components,
and to perform landing gear overhauls, makes
OGMA one of the few MROs in the world to

Since 2009 traditional engine repair and
overhaul processes developed at OGMA since
the 1970s have been deeply and thoroughly
revised according to a lean philosophy and pro-
duction preparation processes associated with
Japans Kaizen system, which emphasises
teamwork, personal discipline, improved
morale, quality circles and employee-based
suggestions for improvement. The changes
comprised a detailed analysis of all the factors
that supported OGMAs final value proposal for
the customer. In 2009 the company introduced
Continuing Improvement Teams (CITs) to look
for ways to maintain and build on quality
improvement processes whilst simultaneously
reducing operational costs.
The work led to a complete transformation
of material and information processes via new
focuses on human interaction and efficiency, in
order to simultaneously obtain the maximum
quality at the minimum turn-around time (TAT)
and cost for the customer.
Having improved the engine process quality
standards, the direct results perceived until
now have been a reduction in engine TAT of
roughly 35 per cent and an expected gain of an
extra 15 per cent in the second half of 2011.
Notably OGMA s engine customers are report-
ing increased satisfaction with OGMA Engine
Services.
In 2011, OGMAs shift from a company
established to support state military aviation to
one operating in the commercial sphere is evi-
dent on the shop floor, where a line concept
philosophy has taken hold, with the aid of very
strong visual signing controls. Interaction of
information and parts with the warehouse has
changed significantly, based on a totally
renewed and managed kitting area, where
parts shortages are avoided through part pro-
curement plans that aim to acquire missing
part just in time. Additionally, support staff in
engineering, programming and control are ever-
present on the shop floor to provide direct and
pro-active support to production workers.
Finally, engine process documentation, its pro-
cedures and OGMA s ERP system have also
been transformed accordingly.
OGMAs initial contact with
Rolls-Royce came in the
1980s, overhauling T-56
engines on C130 Hercules and
P-3 Orion aircraft.

A
s the commercial airline industry
rebounds from the economic downturn,
passenger traffic is projected to rise six
per cent for the year, with similar annual growth
rates for 2012 through 2014. Profitability, how-
ever, is arguably more challenging than ever,
despite projected revenue growth.
Thus reliability and maintainability
becomes crucial issues for operators seeking
to keep a lid on costs. In 2007 Aero Gear
developed new repairs for aerospace power
drive system gear teeth that resulted in a 50-
65 per cent recovery rate, depending on
engine application, of gears that would previ-
ously have been replaced. Its trademarked
The Engine Yearbook 2012
Rising fuel prices and the cost of maintaining ageing fleets are driving new initiatives to cut
operating costs and increase aircraft availability. At the forefront of these efforts are repair and
overhaul activities, which are full of opportunities for time and money savings. Aero Gear
describes how to maximise the life of engine gearboxes.
Tough Tooth technology is now being used to
extend the useful life of gears.
Gearbox maintenance and repair
Before the development of the gear tooth
repairs, engine manuals had very few provisions
for reworking or repairing gear tooth surfaces.
Unlike bearing journals and other surfaces where
blending, machining, plating and grinding repairs
were permitted to be done by qualified overhaul
facilities, gear teeth were limited to visual inspec-
tions and, more often than not, a when in doubt
throw it out criteria was applied by the inspector.
Why the dramatic difference between a gear
tooth and a journal? Unlike journals, a gear
Staying in gear

101 The Engine Yearbook 2012
tooth has a shape, or profile, that can only be
generated and measured by specialised gear
manufacturing equipment operated by highly
experienced personnel. The profile allows the
maximum transfer of power with the least
amount of damaging sliding and abrasion of
contacting surfaces. Imperfections to these
profiles from its original design specification
can dramatically reduce the life of the gear and
jeopardise the length of time between overhaul.
Of course, where there is challenge there is
opportunity. Aero Gear, a supplier to the aero-
space aftermarket industry, observed the gears
that had been sent in for overhaul and repair
per the engine manuals, and made several
assessments for recovery using tooth repairs.
Firstly, depending on engine model, salvage
rates range from 50-65 per cent when tooth
damage is identified. Salvage results save cus-
tomers on the lead-time required to purchase
replacement gears, as well as on the cost of
purchasing replacement gears, which can
extend into the tens of thousands of dollars. In
2009 Aero Gear found that roughly a fifth of
gears received demonstrated some form of
tooth damage and in 2010 that number rose to
30 per cent.
By applying its Tough Tooth technology, Aero
Gear successfully certified the tooth repair
process and received FAA certification and
OEM approval for specific engines applications
in 2007.
Tough Tooth Technology
Tough Tooth technology is a process devel-
oped by Aero Gear that leverages commercially
available technologies to provide customised
solutions for the design and manufacture of
gears and geared systems. Rather than apply-
ing a one-size-fits-all approach to design using
a standard like AGMA, it considers the cus-
tomers end requirements. For example, it
takes into account the development cost, unit
production cost, desired life, application, noise,
materials, environmental considerations, preci-
sion and weight.
The process prioritises the above require-
ments according to customer specifications.
So, a land-based power generation application
might have a high reliability requirement, but
not be so concerned about weight. An aviation
application will have both a high reliability
requirement and a challenging weight target.
Often the solution requires a custom modifica-
Before the development of the
gear tooth repairs, engine
manuals had very few
provisions for reworking or
repairing gear tooth surfaces.
EYB2012 Editorial 144p_144p version 09/11/2011 11:15 Page 101
102 The Engine Yearbook 2012
tion of the standard profile to achieve the per-
formance target. Whatever the case, Tough
Tooth technology will yield a design that meets
the technical requirements in a cost-effective
manner.
On the manufacturing side, Tough Tooth
produces designs that flow in production.
Every gear design is subjected to a pro-
ducibility review to ensure that it can be
processed through lean flow lines in a pre-
dictable and cost-effective manner. Tough
Tooth also takes advantage of life-enhancing
technologies like Isotropic Superfinishing
(ISF) in combination with complex machining
processes to produce gears with superior per-
formance. Gear tooth geometries are not uni-
formly abraded during ISF processing, and
depending on the OEM tolerance require-
ments for the profile, a part that is within
specification before ISF may be out of specifi-
cation after. Tough Tooth methods assess the
variation in material removal during ISF and
Aero Gear can change the final machining
methods to compensate for the non-uniform
material removal during ISF. This is one exam-
ple of the flexibility of Tough Toothtechnol-
ogy to produce gears that meet the most
demanding requirements.
The repair process
When Aero Gear considered the opportunity
to repair gear teeth it was logical to apply Tough
Tooth technology to the task. The challenge
was to make the gear profile conform to OEM
tolerance limits after restoring the surface to
specification requirements. In many cases the
gears that arrived at Aero Gear for overhaul dis-
played surface wear and damage ranging from
scuffing and discoloration to pits and dings
from corrosion or mishandling. Under the exist-
ing repair manual requirements the disparities
that could be addressed were limited to those
that could be remedied with cleaning or spe-
cific localised blending. Many of the gears did
not meet this requirement and were deemed as
non-serviceable units, resulting in the cost of a
replacement gear. Our engineers examined
some of the gears that were being identified as
non-repairable under the existing repair manual
requirements and concluded that by using our
knowledge of manufacturing processes, many
of these gears could be recovered.
The first step in the gear tooth repair
process is an assessment of the condition of
the teeth and measurement of the profile. High-
precision profilometers are used to measure
the average surface roughness and the heights
and depths of the asperities on the surface.
Profile measurements are made using special-
ized CMMs, showing not only the conformance
of the profile to the standard, but also the vari-
ation in relative spacing and the tooth thick-
ness. These measures are critically important
to determining whether or not sufficient mate-
rial exists on the gear teeth to properly repair
within OEM specifications. It is a complex prob-
lem to try to assess the best repair scheme
setup that can remove the asperities within the
physical limits of the gear geometry, but one
that can be overcome with our technology and
historical knowledge. The repair may require
modifications to the profile (still within OEM
specification limits) that can only be accom-
plished using customisable tooling and equip-
ment.
Once the damage to the gear teeth has
been assessed and a plan developed for recov-
ery of the gear, the actual repair process
begins. Gear teeth are processed through com-
plex machining operations and measured for
dimensional accuracy after each step. The sur-
face is also assessed visually, and if necessary
inspected with specialised measuring equip-
ment to determine whether surface damage
has been removed. If the surface is success-
fully restored through the repair process,
achieving both the dimensional and surface fin-

ish of the OEM specification requirements, the
repair is considered complete. If damage
remains once the OEM engine manual toler-
ances have been reached, then the gear would
be identified as non-repairable.
The ISF process has substantial benefits
other than selective, precision removal of small
quantities of material. Data has shown that the
surface finish achieved by ISF, which can reach
as low as 2 , can improve the fatigue life for
contact surfaces and significantly reduce the
noise level of the gearbox. These benefits have
been established in research for other geared
systems in both fixed-wing accessory and
rotary wing power gear applications.
Quantifying the benefits of ISF for extending the
life of repaired gears remains to be deter-
mined, but even without the data the OEMs and
operators are looking to take advantage of the
benefits of ISF in new designs, existing produc-
tion, and repairs.
Certified repairs and future
developments
To date Aero Gear has successfully certified
repairs on spur gears, bevel and spiral bevel
gear teeth in engine main, angle and accessory
gearboxes for the fixed and rotor wing aircraft
industry. Several of the Aero Gear FAA approved
repairs are certified through the OEM repair
engine manuals as well as DER for specific air-
lines and engine applications. In addition to
these repairs there are also FAA certified
repairs using ISF. Aero Gear also works with its
customers who previously relied on replace-
ment to develop repairs that allow for gear
recovery of material that demonstrates non-
serviceable wear or damage.
In conclusion, we are dedicated to develop-
ing processes and technology to assist with
customer-specific requirements. Current devel-
opments have offered customers reduced cost,
reduced lead time and extended part life.
Aero Gear continues to work on new meth-
ods of repairing gears. In the near future
these may include alternatives methods to
plating. The process has the potential to
replace material that is at the same hardness
as the base material, and a hardness that
equals a carburised surface without heat
treatment of the part. Efforts to characterise
the materials will begin in mid-2011, and if
successful development work on the part
level will begin in 2012.
In many cases the gears that
arrived at Aero Gear for
overhaul displayed surface
wear and damage ranging from
scuffing and discoloration to
pits and dings from corrosion
or mishandling.
A gear tooth has a shape, or profile, that can only be generated and measured by specialised gear manufacturing equipment.

O
perating an international airline at the
bottom of the world brings its own set
of challenges for Air New Zealand. Its
home country is remote: even the closest
large neighbour, Australia, is over 2000 kilo-
metres away. The distance between the two
capital cities Canberra and Wellington
is almost the same as from London to
Moscow.
That isolation restricts mobility of people
and skills within the industry. As a result, many
of the people within Air New Zealand have
spent several decades working for the same
company but any suggestion that they must
be stuck in a rut couldnt be further from the
truth. Air New Zealand is earning a reputation
as a dynamic and innovative organisation. It
regularly cleans up in international industry
competitions and that level of energy and
engagement is even more evident on the
inside.
Air New Zealands powerplant business
manager Mick Burdon says: The airline thrives
on the unique Kiwi can do personality, which
has been deliberately fostered and encouraged
from the top down.
To see just how pervasive this fresh
approach is, take a look at our in-flight safety
videos on YouTube. Air New Zealand has turned
what is normally the most boring bit of a flight
The Engine Yearbook 2012
In 2006 Air New Zealand took the decision to outsource core engine maintenance. Here, the
airline explains how that strategy has proceeded since then and what it has done to retain and
develop skills within its powerplant engineering department.
Retaining engine
expertise after outsourcing
into videos so entertaining that when I checked
today more than 16 million people have chosen
to watch ours just for fun.
Air New Zealands engineering capability
has been through a similar revolution. Being
so remote from the usual support networks
means Air New Zealand has traditionally car-
ried out more than its fair share of airframe
heavy and light maintenance and component
overhaul and repair. However, its relatively
small fleet sizes have meant its engineering
division has also had the opportunity to fill
white space at both its Auckland (widebody)
and Christchurch (narrowbody) bases with
work for external customers.
EYB2012 Editorial 144p_144p version 02/11/2011 12:50 Page 104

It has been a successful strategy, winning
contracts from both domestic competitors and
overseas carriers, says Burdon.
It has also ensured we can remain confi-
dent that our in-house capability remains inter-
nationally competitive. And despite the recent
global recession we have continued to grow
and invest in our maintenance facilities at both
bases.
While this overall strategy of maintaining
and growing its engineering capability was
endorsed by a 2006 strategic review, the deci-
sion was taken then to outsource core engine
maintenance. Air New Zealand recognised that
continual advances in engine technology and
the growing prominence of the OEMs in the
aftermarket and maintenance business were
steering it away from in-house maintenance, so
the decision was made to outsource the over-
haul of its widebody jet engines.
While the airline has also retained full in-
house capability for nacelle/thrust reverser
repair and refurbishment and QEC and engine
changes, the outsourced core engine mainte-
nance is managed through a variety of MRO
providers and contract types. These include tra-
ditional time and materials arrangements
through to comprehensive power by the hour
deals with various bespoke contracts in
between.
As the aero engine shop workforce was
scaled back, the capability was re-launched as
Air New Zealand Gas Turbines, now ANZGT, and
focused on building a marine and industrial
business. Applying their aero engine know-how
and expertise in this market soon led to some
eye-catching reliability performance figures,
and quickly established the group as a strong
player in this market.
In 2001 what had previously been Air New
Zealands successful JT8/Dart MRO in
Christchurch was established as a joint venture
partnership with Pratt & Whitney to form the
Christchurch Engine Centre. In 2005 the
CHCEC added V2500 engine capability to the
existing JT8 and Dart offerings. The CHCEC
recently won a five-year contract with Air New
Zealand for MRO of Air New Zealands existing
V2500 fleet.
Despite several major earthquakes hitting
Christchurch in the past year, the CHCEC shop
has continued to deliver Air New Zealands
engines impeccably, says Burdon.
The CHCEC also provides the airline with
the Pratt & Whitney EcoPower engine core
washing service at our Auckland airport hub.
This closed loop wash system delivers a highly
controlled core and fan wash that is proving
effective at recovering engine TGT margin,
reducing an airlines fuel costs and carbon
emissions dramatically.
Air New Zealand is also growing its APU
business at its Christchurch bases component
workshops, adding the A320s APS3200 capa-

ANZ decided in 2006 to outsource core engine maintenance.
If we go much below 20
engines in a given fleet we
start to see reductions in
cost-effective operation.
Accordingly, we have to be
quite inventive in securing
competitive engine
maintenance deals and
optimising engine spares,
tooling and capability.

business manager, ANZ

bility to its line. The APU business aims to dra-
matically increase its engine throughput in the
coming year.
In addition to its domestic activities Air New
Zealand also has a successful military engine
business in Australia, TAE. After start-up in
2000, TAE has now completed successful
through life management of the TF30 engines
in the RAAF F-111 fleet. This fast-growing busi-
ness has also secured a long-term contract
with GE supporting the 404 and 410 engines of
the RAAFs Hornets. Through these and other
activities TAE has gained a strong reputation as
a leading military engine MRO business. More
recently TAE has acquired a civil engine busi-
ness to extend diversity and expand its opera-
tions.
Moving to an outsourced engine mainte-
nance model required significant changes to
the way Air New Zealand managed its engines
both on and off-wing. Building a strong power-
plant engineering team was seen as an
absolute necessity. As for most airlines, engine
maintenance is one of Air New Zealands
largest single costs. As passenger earnings
are so marginal, managing these engine costs
effectively is recognised as a major contributor
to the airlines profitability. As a result Air New
Zealand has been prepared to invest in a
strong engineering capability to ensure value
for money is achieved from our engine mainte-
nance contracts.
Competition for engine maintenance con-
tracts is very keen, especially in the mid-ground
bespoke contract area, so this is where even a
comparatively small player like Air New Zealand
has looked to strike a good deal, says Burdon.
The powerplant engineering team at Air
New Zealand works closely with Procurements
contract management team to ensure con-
tracts are negotiated to our best advantage.
Besides ensuring clear forward planning
and management of all airworthiness and tech-
nical issues the Air New Zealand powerplant
engineering team aggressively and actively
manages the engine fleet to dig out savings
and improvements that will pay back year-on-
year. Its far too easy, once the plannings done,
to let things take their course and not adjust or
even re-plan.
We take a lifecycle approach and the loom-
ing fleet changeover, exiting both 747s and
737s over the next four years, has sharpened
the focus on ensuring maximum utilisation of
engine hours before end-of-lease or sale, says
Burdon. Detailed planning for the 747 exits
began two years earlier and resulted in a num-
ber of strategically planned engine changes on
these eight aircraft.
The most recent additions to the Air New
Zealand fleet have been all new GE90-115B
powered 777-300s.
With aircraft and spare engine delivery
starting in late 2010 we have a very new fleet

of engines to consider. These ultra high-value,
ultra high-tech assets are currently flying on our
Auckland/Los Angeles/London routes and they
are expected to stay on wing for many years
before removal for any shop maintenance,
says Burdon. But we havent given ourselves a
vacation. Instead weve spent many months in
intense negotiations with MTU in Hanover to
hammer out a highly tailored engine mainte-
nance contract.
MTU were open to innovation in this con-
tract particularly around availability of lease
engines if operational issues caused low or
zero spares or even AOG situations. The result
is an innovative deal, with some similarities to
power by the hour, in which MTU will carry out
performance restoration of on-condition
engines based on a flight-hour charge. If and
when Air New Zealand engines require repair
shop visits between performance restorations,
MTU will deliver this on a time-and-material
basis. However, any betterment put into the
engine during such repair visits will reduce the
hourly cost of the next performance restora-
tion.
Air New Zealand needs a relatively diverse
fleet to cover its domestic, regional and inter-
national routes with relatively small numbers of
each aircraft type.
That diversity produces an inherent risk of
operating below the optimum fleet sizes for
each engine type.
If we go much below 20 engines in a given
fleet we start to see reductions in cost-effec-
tive operation, says Burdon.
Accordingly, we have to be quite inventive in
securing competitive engine maintenance
deals and optimising engine spares, tooling
and capability. One solution is to look for part-
nerships, which is exactly the route we are tak-
ing with our latest MRO contracts for the
GE90-115B.
Air New Zealands future Boeing 787-9 fleet,
on the other hand, will be powered by Rolls-
Royce Trent 1000 engines.
We plan to operate this fleet within a Total
Care package. This power by the hour concept
offloads operational and commercial risk from
us as the operator onto the OEM. But theres
no free lunch, which makes this option appear
relatively expensive compared with the time
and materials or bespoke MRO contracts,
says Burdon.
It is a different solution, but it is this ana-
lytical approach building bespoke solutions
for each situation and then managing them
dynamically that defines Air New Zealands
current approach to engine management.
In 2005 the Christchurch Engine Centre added V2500 engine capability to the existing JT8 and Dart offerings.
Competition for engine
maintenance contracts is very
keen, especially in the
mid-ground bespoke contract
area, so this is where even a
comparitively small player like
Air New Zealand has looked to
strike a good deal.

N
on-destructive testing (NDT) can be
defined as the assessment of material
integrity without compromising future
use, for example by taking samples for analy-
sis. It is a collection of processes used
across a number of different industries, such
as power generation and construction as well
as transportation. The simplest form is a
visual inspection, aided by remote visual
inspection (RVI) equipment such as
borescopes for areas that would be inacces-
sible without disassembly. However, this
method is only useful for superficial problems
and is heavily dependent upon the skill and
dedication of the technician.
In aviation, NDT is used not only during
maintenance or post-incident or accident
investigations, but also during component
manufacture, to preclude flaws, and in the
maintenance and repair of both airframes and
engines to detect not only cracks but disbond-
ing, corrosion, scratches and other problems
or damage.
There are numerous NDT methods including
mechanical and optical inspection, penetrating
radiation, and chemical and analytical testing.
This article concerns fluorescent penetrant
inspection (FPI), a type of inspection in which
fluorescent dye is used to detect defects on
the surfaces of non-porous materials.
The Engine Yearbook 2012
Cleaning prior to fluorescent penetrant inspection (FPI) is a critical process for high-reliability
components in the repair and overhaul of aircraft engines. Cleaning via vapour degreasing with
trichloroethylene (TCE) is a common method which is both simple and effective. However, there is
a safer alternative, as US chemical manufacturer Petroferm reports.

Components requiring this type of inspection
include turbine blades, casings, disks and spin-
ners. During inspection of these components,
surfaces must be free of any contamination
that could potentially mask defects. Ultimately,
cleaning processes safeguard an aircraft from
defective parts, which inflate maintenance
costs and threaten safety.
Fluorescent penetration
In penetrant inspection, an NDT method
based on the capillary action of liquids, a solu-
tion of visible or fluorescent dye is applied to
the test object, before the excess solution is
removed to highlight any breaks in the surface.
A developer is used to draw the penetrant out
of the defects. Visible dyes rely on colour con-
trast between the penetrant and the developer,
while fluorescent dyes are activated by ultravio-
let light.
The Zyglo fluorescent penetrant process,
supplied by Magnaflux, a division of ITW, pro-
vides a series of process chemicals (including
penetrant and developer powders) which are
used on metal parts to detect cracks or other
imperfections that could cause product failure.
This FPI process is sometimes referred to as
non-destructive testing (NDT) as it allows the
inspection of parts using non-invasive meth-
ods.
The purpose of cleaning prior to FPI is to
remove all metalworking fluids coolants,
sludge and oils and debris embedded in the
pores and cracks of a component that would
prevent the penetrant from entering the defect.
A number of cleaning processes have been
used to prepare components for inspection
including: manual cleaning using petroleum-
based solvents such as acetone, methyl ethyl
ketone (MEK), toluene and mineral spirits;
vapour degreasing with hydrochlorofluorocar-
bons (HCFCs), chlorinated solvents such as
trichloroethylene (TCE), perchloroethylene
(PERC) and methylene chloride (MC); and aque-
ous cleaning processes.
Vapour degreasing with TCE has been a sim-
ple and effective cleaning method used for
decades. However, TCE is categorized as a haz-
ardous air pollutant by the US Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) and is also a sus-
pected carcinogen.
Therefore a US manufacturer of precision
castings wished to change to a safer alterna-
tive. Working with Petroferm, an alternative to
TCE was investigated. The purpose of this
investigation was to identify a suitable alterna-
tive to TCE prior to the Zyglo process.
Firstly, it was important to find a solvent
that could perform as good, or better than TCE.

Secondly an alternative would have to be com-
patible with existing vapour degreasing equip-
ment. The third criterion was better
environmental, health, and safety properties
than TCE.
The solvent selected for testing was Lenium
ES, a non-flammable vapour degreasing solvent
with a boiling point of 154F (68C). This prod-
uct is considered a drop-in replacement for
TCE since it can be used in the same equip-
ment requiring only minimal setting changes.
Test component preparation
The cleaning procedure for metal compo-
nents at the castings manufacturer was a typi-
cal two sump, three-stage vapour degreasing
process using TCE. The cleaned components
were inspected immediately after degreasing
using the Zyglo process. Upon passing inspec-
tion, the components were further processed
into the final product.
For this study, a series of four cleaning tests
were completed over a six-month period at an
off-site location. For each test run, the ability to
clean a sample size of at least 200 compo-
nents was evaluated. Each test component
was produced in-house to best emulate the
customers conditions and requirements,
including saturation in cutting oils and metal
fines as a result of the normal manufacturing
process. Each test component was then
stacked and racked in baskets used in the cur-
rent degreasing process. The test components,
once cleaned, were then inspected by the cus-
tomer using the Zyglo process. All of the test
components were subjected to the same
pass/fail rating as TCE-cleaned parts.
Cleaning product and process
Lenium ES, a non-flammable, binary
azeotrope solvent cleaner that is comprised of
Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP)
approved materials, was utilised in this study.
This product has proven to be highly effective in
removing oils, greases and particulates. It has
broad compatibility with metallic alloys and
many common plastics.
In all cases, the test components cleaned in
Lenium ES were subjected to the same three-
step vapour degreasing procedure as TCE. This
involves washing by immersion in the boil
sump; rinsing through immersion in the rinse
sump; and drying by suspension in the vapour
zone. The description of the cleaning parame-
ters for each test can be found in Table 2.
Vapour degreasing testing was conducted at
an equipment vendor site under the supervi-
sion of a Petroferm representative and the cus-
tomer.
Once cleaned, all test components were
subjected to the Zyglo fluorescent penetrant
process in accordance to AMS 2644 using the
following type, method, sensitivity level, and
form: Type I Fluorescent Dye (MAGNAFLUX
ZL -27A), Method D Post Emusifiable
Hydrophilic (MAGNAFLUX ZR-10B), Sensitivity
Level 3 High, Form a- Dry powder (MAG-
NAFLUX ZP-4B). The flow chart above outlines
the steps taken.
Results
Since the customers internal rejection cri-
teria is proprietary, no actual test data is avail-
able for this article. The customer did, however,
verify that the test results from the Lenium ES
cleaning trials demonstrated that Lenium ES
was able to indicate component flaws, as deter-
mined by the Zyglo fluorescent penetrant
process and ASTM standards, as good as and
in some cases better than TCE.
The primary goal of the evaluation was to
determine if an alternative vapour degreasing
solvent with preferred environmental, health
and safety properties could replace TCE for
cleaning prior to the Zyglo fluorescent pene-
trant process. The precision casting manufac-
turer found the detection results conclusively
demonstrated that Lenium ES could clean
metal castings as well as, and in some cases
better than, TCE prior to the Zyglo fluorescent
inspection process.
In addition, Lenium ES is considered a drop-
in replacement for TCE as it is used in the
same equipment requiring only a temperature
setting change. Finally, the use of Lenium ES
will significantly improve environmental, health
and safety conditions within the plant.
