Fort Lauderdale, FL — April 8, 2024
CTS Engines, a leading independent MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul) provider specializing in the overhaul and repair of mature turbofan jet engines, proudly announces the successful completion and approval of the test cell correlation for the CF6-80E1 engine.
This milestone achievement underscores CTS Engines’ long-term commitment to the CF6 engine line and offers operators another option to fulfill their engine requirements.
The CF6-80E1 test cell correlation was approved by the OEM using our state-of-the-art Turbine Control Structure (TCS). The TCS is a large, open-air structure designed to alter the flow of air into engines being tested to reduce the effects caused by variations in wind speed and direction. The TCS will enhance the utilization of the outdoor test cell by enabling the test cell to operate in nearly all wind conditions.
“We are thrilled to announce the successful completion and approval of the test cell correlation for the CF6-80E1 engine,” said Vesa Paukkeri, Chief Executive Officer of CTS Engines. “This achievement highlights our team’s expertise and dedication to delivering superior service and performance to our customers. With this approval, CTS Engines will stand as the exclusive MRO in North America providing full-scale CF6-80E1 overhaul and testing services for operators.”
The approval of the test cell correlation for the CF6-80E1 engine reinforces CTS Engines’ position as a trusted partner in the aerospace industry for mature turbofan engines. By adhering to the highest standards of quality and reliability, CTS Engines remains committed to providing innovative solutions and exceptional service to its customers worldwide.
“We are immensely grateful to GE for their support and collaboration throughout the test cell correlation process” said Randy Mengel, Chief Operating Officer at CTS Engines. “Their expertise and dedication has been instrumental to ensuring the accuracy and reliability of our testing procedures. We believe maintaining a strong two-way relationship with OEMs is paramount for us to support our customers.”
