Ameco develops Trent 700 engine thrust reverser capability

Ameco has completed its first thrust reverser repair work for Rolls Royce Trent 700 powerplant in February. The component is part of an engine belonging to an Air China aircraft. Ameco becomes the first MRO shop to own this capability in China. It is a significant milestone in the development of the companys capability, adds Andreas Meisel, Ameco Chief Operating Officer (MRO). Ameco is rapidly growing its aircraft-related component capability in recent years. Ameco now enables the repair work on the thrust reversers for International Aero Engines V2500-V5, CFM International CFM56-5B and CFM56-7B, as well as Trent 700 engines. Amecos annual revenue on the aircraft-related components in 2016 saw double growth compared to the year before. Apart from the thrust reverser, Ameco is capable of the repair work on the other aircraft-related components such as inlet duct and radome for most of Boeing and Airbus series.
