The process of AGL seating ring installation involves core drilling holes in aircraft manoeuvring areas. The core has to be broken out to allow the seating ring to be securely fitted using specialist High early strength mortars and grouts. Before final curing the seat ring has to be accurately levelled and optically aligned. |

 |
Prior to the AGL seating ring bedding and alignment, breaking out of this core is carried out by Heavy Duty Pneumatic hammers. As a resuult HAVS (Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome) damage could be caused to the operator.

With input from our staff, operatives and clients, our senior fitter and designer Andy Fry produced drawings and budgets to build a horizontal cutting machine. |
 |
|
Our
machine would be a mobile unit with a self contained power
source driving a hydraulic pump. This pump would drive a hydraulic
motor which can traverse vertically along a rack and pinion
shaft. An extension rod with a diamond blade attached would
be fitted to the motor and run at a variable rpm dependant
on the host concrete strength. |
