SAESL Compressor Blade Repair Automation Case Study

This document describes how Singapore Aero Engine Services Private Limited (SAESL) used ABB robotics to automate compressor blade repair, reducing engine overhaul turn-times to under 60 days. The implementation of various ABB robot models (IRB 2400L, IRB 140, IRB 2400, IRB 1400) for machine tending, cutting, plasma coating, and picking led to a 10% reduction in man-hours and a four-day reduction in blade repair cycle time.
