Refurbishment of turbine rotors at E.ON's Power Engineering Services arm in Birmingham is running at full steam thanks to the installation of a CopriSystems canopy. E.ON Power Engineering Services repairs and refurbishs steam turbines for UK power stations and industrial clients. This specialist repair work has to be timed throughout the year. Critical shop floor space was being taken up with storing the turbine rotors. To help free up space and resolve the issue, E.ON Power Engineering Services called CopriSystems.

A freestanding canopy system was delivered and installed within six weeks.Measuring 15m long, 18m wide and 5m high, the canopy has a fixed curtain at the rear and full width curtain doors at the front. The canopy can store rotors from up to four turbines on trailers at one time, massively increasing shop floor capacity.
