Collins Aerospace Systems, a unit of United Technologies , and Lufthansa Technik
announced a licensing agreement for nacelle Maintenance Repair & Overhaul (MRO) services on A320neo aircraft.
Collins Aerospace, the original equipment manufacturer for the A320neo PW1100G nacelle, has more than 1,100 nacelles in service on this aircraft platform.
The agreement, which continues the collaboration between Collins Aerospace and Lufthansa Technik, calls for Collins Aerospace to provide Lufthansa Technik with technical and repair process information, access to OEM tooling, and rotable asset pools to support a full suite of A320neo nacelle MRO services.
The deal builds on Collins Aerospace’s eight strategically located nacelle MRO
facilities, and the agreement now opens A320neo operators to Lufthansa Technik’s global MRO.
“As a result of this agreement, A320neo operators now have access to multiple high-quality repair centre locations for nacelle MRO services,” said Marc Duvall, president of Aerostructures at Collins Aerospace. “The collaborative relationship between Lufthansa Technik and Collins Aerospace, which also includes the 787 and A350XWB nacelles, ensures a high standard of quality while meeting the demands of airlines with full confidence.”
