Practical engine access
Designed for the safe and effective powered manipulation of large engines or other heavy workpieces weighing up to 25t, the latest engine stand supplied to Clarke Energy is a Benco 25 unit, manufactured by the Brixworth Engineering Company.
Developed from a unit with 20,000kg load capacity, the engine stand can accommodate a maximum torsional load of 80KNm, covering the extra stresses induced where the heavier load is rotated though a full 360° around the long axis.
Used for modifications, repairs and personnel training associated with the large service exchange engines, the stand ensures practical access to all sides of the engine block and speeds the overhaul time.
