RA Power solutions have been undertaking 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, Heavy engineering equipment into pieces or developing multiple cracks.
i) The main advantage of repair of damaged or cracked engine block by metal lock / metal stitching process is that it is cold method of repair and no heat is generated.
ii) 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.
iii) Metal lock/metal stitching process of crack repair can be performed on-site avoiding the high cost associated with disassembly of the equipment and transporting it to the designated workshop for repair. Metal stitching can be done in a limited space available.
iv) It is proven that the crack repair of engine block, cast iron casting, Aluminium and bronze components restore its original strength and is even successful for watertight and gas-tight repairs.
v) We have experienced that engine block repaired by metal lock/metal stitching process do not lose their profile or shape, In most of the cases engine blocks do not require any machining.
