Summary

  • Customer Need / Challenge

    An aerospace company wants to test their aircraft engine hoist in order to safely lift, remove, or install engines efficiently and safety.

  • Interface Solution

    Interface’s solution is to install WTSSHK-B-HL Wireless Bow Shackles to the aircraft engine hoist. A heavy load will be added to the hooks where the aircraft engine would be. Results from the heavy load will be sent wirelessly to both the WTS-BS-4 USB Industrial Base Station attached to the customers computer or laptop, and the WTS-HK-S Next-Generation Wireless Handheld.

  • Results

    The customer was assured that the aircraft engine hoist was strong and secure enough to lift a heavy engine when installing or removing an engine inside of an aircraft.

Materials


  • Two WTSSHK-B-HL Wireless Bow Shackles
  • WTS-BS-4 USB Industrial Base Station
  • WTS-HK-S Next-Generation Wireless Handheld
  • Customer PC or Laptop

How it Works


  1. Two WTSSHK-B-HL Wireless Bow Shackles are installed onto the aircraft engine hoist.
  2. A heavy load is attached to the hooks of the hoist and slings.
  3. The WTSSHK-B-HL Wireless Bow Shackles measure the forces of the heavy load, and transmit the data wirelessly to the customers computer or laptop through the WTS-BS-4 USB Industrial Base Station. The customer can also view results wirelessly when the data is sent to the WTS-HK-S Next-Generation Wireless Handheld
