RA Power Solutions has been undertaking the repair & maintenance of heavy equipment in industries, power plants and diesel engines installed on the vessel for the last more than 4 decades.
We have experienced that in spite of following the rigid maintenance schedule mentioned in the maintenance manual of the manufacturer, serious accidents do take place breaking the casing of the engine, compressor, and Heavy engineering equipment into pieces or developing multiple cracks.
RA Power Solutions recommended repair of damaged cast iron casting, Aluminium bronze components by metal lock and metal stitching process having the following advantages:
- The main advantage of repairing of damaged or cracked engine block by metal lock and metal stitching process is that it is a cold method of repair and no heat is generated.
- No distortion in the profile or the shape of the engine block or casing takes place, which is common in case the crack repair in the engine block is undertaken by welding.
- Metal lock and metal stitching process of crack repair can be performed on site, avoiding the high cost associated with the disassembly of the equipment and transporting it to the designated workshop for repair. Metal stitching can be done in a limited space available.
- It is proven that the crack repair of the engine blocks, cast iron casting, and Aluminium and bronze components restores their original strength and is even successful for water-tight and gas-tight repairs.
- We have experienced that engine blocks repaired by metal lock and metal stitching process do not lose their profile or shape, In most cases, engine blocks do not require any machining.
RA Power Solutions has successfully executed the repair of more than three thousand cracks, damaged and rejected engine blocks, compressor casing, heavy equipment etc all over the world and has saved millions of dollars for the shipping & general industries.
