Challenge Group is using an exclusive aircraft engine dolly at its Liège airport hub.
It features shock-absorbing cushions that protect sensitive engines from tarmac vibrations with a maximum capacity of 13,800kg and flexible loading options for 16FT X-load, 20FT, and 10FT configurations.
The dolly is compatible with Trent engines, ranging from the 500 to 1000 versions used in Boeing and Airbus models and it can also handle RZX containers.
Challenge Group chief operating officer, David Canavan, said: “This innovative engine dolly significantly enhances our operational capabilities, giving us a distinct edge over the competition. By ensuring the safe and efficient transport of aircraft engines directly from the offloading point to the aircraft door, we not only streamline our processes but also minimize risks associated with warehouse and tarmac vibrations.”
