MTU Aero Engines has concluded a strategic agreement with U.S. engine manufacturer GE Aviation on the maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) of the GEnx turbine center frame (TCF). The contract makes MTU the provider of MRO services for GEnx TCFs within the GE Aviation network. The GEnx powers the Boeing 787 Dreamliner and is the sole engine for the Boeing 747-8. The agreement covers the engine’s entire life cycle and is expected to be worth more than €3bn in sales. MTU Aero Engines is thus adding yet another chapter to the success story of the turbine center frame for the GEnx. “For about five years now, we have been responsible for the development and production of this TCF, MTU being the only company in the world to build it for the GEnx,” says Michael Schreyögg, MTU Chief Program Officer, pointing to the importance this component has for MTU. “The GEnx is an extremely popular engine for Boeing’s twin aisle aircraft; for a long time to come, MTU will greatly benefit from its stakes in both the production of this engine and aftermarket services.”
