Semmco to Showcase British Design and Engineering Excellence at MRO Americas 2018
Semmco, a British engineering company that designs, manufacturers, installs and services ground support equipment, aviation access platforms and refuelling systems globally, will exhibit its latest product innovations at the largest exhibition in the world dedicated to aviation maintenance, MRO Americas 2018, at booth 2551.
The global aviation industry continues to fly strong with positive growth momentum in maintenance, repair and overhaul. Exhibiting at MRO Americas for the second time, Semmco will present its latest solutions, including the SMART Nitrogen Trolley and UCAS XS Variable Height Access Steps.
The SMART Charge and SMART Check digital inflators will also be available at the booth - the latest offering for tire inflation and pressure checking with the only digital inflator and checker on the market that incorporates a back light.
UCAS XS Variable Height Access Steps
A lightweight aluminium, towable variable height access steps complete with safety hand rails, the UCAS XS provides a height adjustment of the top working platform from 1.75m – 2.5m. The XS is part of the Semmco variable height modular UCAS range which also includes UCAS XL (2.25m-3.2m) and XXL (3.25m-5m). Designed for use when carrying out maintenance on the line on a range of aircraft, they are easily maneuverable and adjusted by one person, while being fully compliant with international standards and legislation.
SMART Nitrogen Trolley
The Semmco Nitrogen SMART Trolley has a lightweight, compact design that can carry up to three nitrogen cylinders, allowing them to sit at a 90 degree angle. The safe, quick and easy loading and unloading cylinder cradle system reduces manual handling risks associated with movement of cylinders from a vertical to horizontal transportation position. The ergonomically positioned control panel incorporates an easy to operate control panel with clear color code markings for low pressure inflation of aircraft tires and high pressure for strut or accumulator inflation. An Oxygen SMART trolley is also available. Both trollies can be supplied on a transport pack/pallet, for easy shipping and quick assembly.
SMART Charge and SMART Check digital inflators
Traditionally, inflating the tire requires a head light as this process is often done in the dark. Head lights burn battery power fast, which can be costly and cause frequent interruptions to the worker. The SMART Charge and SMART Check are Semmco’s latest digital innovation in tire inflation and pressure checking, eliminating the need to wear a head light, with instant results for the engineer. The easy to use, robust units give electronic readings, with a calibrated accuracy of +/-2psi and feature a battery powered back light for use at night; making the process quicker, easier and more accurate.
Semmco designs, manufactures and installs a wide range of ground support equipment and aviation access platforms for a global network of aviation clients, including Delta, Air Canada, British Airways and jetBlue.
Stuart McOnie, Managing Director at Semmco says: “We are very excited to exhibit at MRO Americas again this year. Being on the ground talking directly with maintenance technicians will help us to identify new trends and emerging needs for North America - discovering how we can better cater to end users and enhance our services.
“With ambitious plans for continued growth in 2018, our 25th year in business, we are looking to open our first US office this year. We look forward to expanding our customer base across North America and supporting new customers across the globe with quality service and product.”
