Engine mount bearings require precision tools to meet the strict requirements of the CMM or manufacture process specification. Carter Manufacturing Ltd. has developed “ready-to-go” kits for the most common engine mount applications such as CFM56-5B, CFM56-7B, V2500, LEAP 1A, LEAP 1B, and PW1500. These are common on the A320 family, A320neo family, A220 family, A319, A321, 737NG, 747, 767, 737 MAX, KC-390, and MD-90.
The bearings required in these applications are made of superalloys, such as Inconel 718, due to the high temperature requirements. These materials are notoriously difficult to cut so we developed a range of specialist cutting tools. These are the best cutters in the market for engine mount bearings.
Our engine mount bearing tool solutions are not restricted to the engines previously listed. We can custom design and manufacture for any application. Our aerospace bearing tools have proven to be the most ergonomic and effective in the market. You will save production time and eliminate quality rejections using these tools.
