Rolls-Royce Power Systems Division today announces it has opened a new Remanufacturing and Overhaul Center on its mtu Aiken campus in South Carolina (USA). The new facility is connected to the existing manufacturing operations and represents a low double-digit million dollar investment. It supports the company’s service initiative and sustainability approach.
The new 69,000-sq.ft. (6,400 sqm) facility, which was announced in 2021, brings formerly outsourced workshop and warehouse operations in-house and expands them to provide remanufacturing and overhaul of mtu Series 2000, Series 4000 and Detroit Diesel 2-Cycle engines and components, plus internal and external rework services. Initially focused on parts remanufacturing for after sales support, the facility targets to remanufacture 20,000 parts per year once fully operational, thus greatly improving spare part availability and customer support in the region
