IAC AVIATION
WINS £1.8M CONTRACT FROM ROLLS-ROYCE
IAC
Aviation Division has won a £1.8m contract from Rolls-Royce for
the refurbishment of Number 4 Turbine Test Rig at their Derby location.
This significant order was won in competition against four of Rolls-Royce's
long-standing subcontractors.
This facility tests
development turbine modules in isolation from a jet engine to confirm
their performance prior to proceeding in the jet engine development process.
This major contract for the upgrade of the test rig includes the full
gamut of services: design, manufacture, civil works, installation, commissioning
and setting to work of the test facility.
Gordon Edwards, General
Manager said: “This project is a significant step forward and we
look forward to building a long-standing relationship with Rolls-Royce
in the years to come. We see ourselves as the Rolls-Royce of aero-engine
testing.”
