FAQs

Getting to Know Engine StandThe AGSE Engine Stand CFM56-7B represents the pinnacle of aviation ground support equipment, specifically engineered for the safe handling and transportation of CFM56-7B aircraft engines. This low-profile shipping stand combines robust construction with innovative design features to ensure secure engine handling across various transportation modes. Its precision-engineered framework demonstrates AGSE’s commitment to quality and reliability in the aerospace industry.

Features and Applications Engine StandThis versatile engine stand excels in both functionality and practical application. Its bootstrap capability facilitates seamless on-wing engine removal and installation, while the removable palletized base enhances operational flexibility. The stand’s dual-sided forklift accessibility streamlines handling procedures, and external shock mounts effectively minimize vibration during transport. The integration of four shock-absorbing retractable casters, each rated at 5,000 lbs capacity, ensures stable movement during ground operations.

Technical Design and ConstructionBuilt with a steel welded frame and tubular support arms, this engine stand exemplifies durability and structural integrity. The corrosion-resistant pins and hardware, protected by Skydrol enamel coating, guarantee longevity even in demanding environments. The rotatable forward cradle arms optimize engine installation procedures, while the comprehensive tie-down system ensures secure transport. The stand’s thoughtful design maintains a low profile while accommodating the full dimensions of the CFM56-7B engine, making it an ideal solution for both storage and transportation needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the typical lead time for gas turbine overhaul services?

The lead time for gas turbine overhaul services ranges from 6 to 14 weeks, depending on the damage assessment, parts availability, and whether hot-section repairs are required. Expedited options may reduce this by 30%.
Do you provide customizations for legacy turbine control systems?

Yes, we retrofit legacy systems (e.g., GE Frame 5, Siemens V94.2) with modern digital controllers, typically completing hardware integration within 4-8 weeks. Software migration requires additional validation time.
How often should industrial gas turbines undergo performance testing?

We recommend annual performance testing under ISO 3977-2 standards. Critical applications (e.g., offshore platforms) may require semi-annual tests with emissions compliance checks.
Are your radiation-hardened (rad-hard) semiconductors compliant with MIL-PRF-38535?

All rad-hard devices (e.g., FPGA, ADC) are QML Class V certified under MIL-PRF-38535 and tested to MIL-STD-883 Method 1019 for SEU tolerance. Full qualification reports are available upon request.
What temperature ranges do your military-grade ICs support?

Our ASICs and power management ICs operate across -55°C to +175°C ambient temperatures, with derating curves provided in military temperature range (MTR) datasheets.
Are PMA parts interchangeable with OEM components?

Our PMA parts (e.g., actuators, sensors) hold FAA/EASA Form 1 certification and match OEM form/fit/function. Installation requires SB/MB documentation per FAA AC 23.1529.
What traceability standards do you follow for aircraft fasteners?

All NAS/MS fasteners include full DNA traceability: melt source (AMS 2301), heat/lot numbers, and AS9100-compliant MTRs with ultrasonic test reports.
How do you handle urgent AOG (Aircraft on Ground) requests?

AOG orders ship within 4 hours for stocked items (FAA-PMA, EASA Part 21G). Non-stock critical parts trigger priority manufacturing with 72-hour max turnaround.
