Stand and position
February 1st 2008 Benco engine stands and
positioners suitable for
newbuild, repair and
refurbishment operations,
can be supplied by
Brixworth Engineering Co.
With stand capacities to 20t,
units are suitable for work on
engines and gearboxes from
public transport equipment,
as well as drive units from
heavy construction plant,
gen sets and static engines.
The range allows simple,
safe rotational handling of
heavy, out-of-balance loads
and has the added benefit
of backlash-free movement.
Smaller stands are
available, covering weight
capacities from 750kg.
Models can be supplied
floor-mounted or as mobile
units, the latter allowing
easy relocation of work-inprogress.
Some models have
an adjustable column, giving
a spindle height that can be
set from 760 to 1110mm.
Heavy items can be
manipulated through 360° in
one plane and 90° in the
other. Depending on the
application, the rotational
movements of the stands can
be controlled electrically,
pneumatically or hydraulically. More articles from The Brixworth Engineering Co Ltd: |
