LUFTHANSA TECHNIK:
OVERHAULING LANDING GEAR AS INDEPENDENT MRO –
CHALLENGING MARKETS & NEW TECHNOLOGIES
CHRISTIAN WICKER,
DIRECTOR OF SALES & MARKETING, LUFTHANSA TECHNIK LANDING GEAR SERVICES UK
PROGRAMME INTRO
The landing gear is the only aircraft system without built-in redundancy - you need to rely 100 percent on its proper function.
A landing gear combines a multitude of parts (e.g. 2,100 parts have to be cleaned, repaired and overhauled for the landing gear overhaul of an A320). Its maintenance therefore requires a process chain with an outstanding degree of coordination.
With designed flow-principled workshops and vast in-house capabilities with state-of-the-art equipment, Lufthansa Technik provides these services since decades at its landing gear overhaul facilities in the Americas, Europe and Asia. In this lecture, Christian Wicker will highlight and discuss how Lufthansa Technik successfully is overhauling landing gears as independent provider to an MRO aftermarket.
The presentation will cover technical aspects, in particular new technologies required, but also focusses on the market views and demands from airline customers.
