P&W to ramp up aftermarket repair for GTF components
Pratt & Whitney (P&W) is ramping up the industrialisation of repairs for certain components of its GTF engines across its Singapore-based MRO facilities; such as Component Aerospace Singapore, Turbine Overhaul Services, and Pratt & Whitney Component Solutions. ""The investment and collaboration on repair development and capacity growth within our facilities, not just in Singapore but across our global MRO network, demonstrates our commitment to customers and the GTF fleet,"" said Pratt & Whitney vice president, aftermarket operations - Asia Pacific and Turkiye Shangari Meleschi. Meleschi added: ""In addition to enhancing engine MRO efficiency, we are increasing the capabilities and productivity of our technicians and providing new opportunities for them to expand their skillset."" Repair industrialisation at these three facilities has been achieved for 33 components, including seal assemblies, high pressure compressor stator segments and vanes, and combustion chambers. An additional 25 will be completed in 2024 with another 177 parts by 2025.
