Jet Engine Carrier and Monorails

Jet aircraft engine handling systems from TC/American Crane Company move and place the engine within easy reach of technicians and assemblers. These systems keep the engine off floor carts and enable engine access above, below and all sides during manufacturing assembly or disassembly for overhaul and maintenance. The systems are specially designed to allow unlimited access to every part of the engine without transferring it to rolling carts or other devices. This allows each step to be performed smoothly and safely from one operation to the next minimizing the possibility of damage while saving transfer time and the need for additional personnel. They consist of a combination of interlocking transfer cranes, workstation monorails, curves, switches and engine carriers. They include specialized equipment such as lift stations, track openers and turntables to meet facility layout and production requirements. Technicians operate these carriers via pushbutton pendant, radio or infrared controls for precise control with maximum safety. Specialized controls are available to restrict movement of the engine carrier where required. For more information visit www.tcamerican.com.
