Solution Proposal

MTB team attended vessel at Nosco dock yard.  Upon inspection, our enginee found that Starting Air Motor did not turn at speed enough, Air Motor needed to be overhauled.

After discussion, the shipowner agreed with our proposed solutions. Then the air starter set was diassembled and taken to our workshop.

Overhauling

At MTB workshop, engineers dismantled motor parts. All were carefully cleaned and inspected. Turbine part/ transmission gears/ ball earings/ piston were in normal condition. Some O-rings were damaged.

We carried out the renewal of ball bearing and spare parts. Then Air motor was reinstalled on engine.

Running test

Running test of Air Motor was made at MTB workshop. It started in good condition.

Reassembling

The air motor was returned to the shipyard and reassembled on engine on time in customer satisfaction.
