Professional jet engine cooling system. We minimize maintenance downtime by up to 8 hours for airlines and MROs.

About us

Established in 2018, FCS Finland designs innovative jet engine cooling solutions for aircraft maintenance. Our clients, top airlines and MROs, can cut maintenance downtime by up to 8 hours. We believe airplanes should fly, not sit on the ground. In maintenance, time is crucial, so we strive to shorten maintenance slots for better fleet use. Our patented product, AFC-22, a professional cooling system for aircraft engines solves this challenge. Using a vacuum-based system, AFC-22 rapidly cools down engines, reducing downtime significantly. AFC-23 Hybrid offers standalone operation. Unlike AFC-22, it doesn't rely on external power, featuring an integrated generator fueled by diesel. Developed from customer feedback, AFC-23 has a sturdier undercarriage, improved tow capabilities, and a slimline profile. Jet engine cooling can be easily performed either at apron or in a hangar. Our solutions are successfully implemented by Qantas Airways, Air New Zealand, Helvetic Airways, Etihad airways, Lufthansa, Air France, Delta Airlines, Vueling, Finnair. Currently we have adapters available for following jet engine models: • Rolls-Royce Trent XWB -84 • Rolls-Royce Trent 7000 • Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 • Rolls-Royce Trent 900 • Rolls-Royce Trent 800 • CFM International CFM56-5B • CFM International CFM56-7B • CFM International Leap 1A • CFM International Leap 1B • General Electric CF6-80E1 • General Electric GE-90 115B • General Electric GE-90 94B • General Electric GEnx-1B • General Electric GE9X • International Aero Engines V2500 • Pratt & Whitney 1100G • Pratt & Whitney 1500G • Pratt & Whitney 1900G •Trent 700 • Trent 500 • GEnx2B • GP7200

    How many jet engine cooling devices do airlines need? The answer varies for each client. Here are three important factors that determine how many cooling devices an airline might need: 1. Type of aircraft ✈️ Widebody jets get more value from improved fleet utilization, so airlines usually need more cooling devices for these aircraft. 2. Location 🌍 Where the airline operates matters a lot. For instance, airlines in the Middle East, with their hotter climates, often need more cooling devices. 3. Airline business model 📊 Different airlines have different priorities. Network operators, with larger budgets, are more likely to invest in cooling devices compared to low-cost carriers. Plus, how an airline handles maintenance also makes a difference. Those that do maintenance in hangars need fewer cooling devices than those doing it outdoors. Understanding these factors helps us provide the best solutions tailored to each client's unique needs. Contact us for more information: https://lnkd.in/dwhjn3zZ #Aviation #Airlines #JetEngines #FleetManagement #CoolingSystems #AviationMaintenance

    The aviation industry is embracing greener practices, and FCS FINLAND solutions are playing a pivotal role in this transition. Here's why: 🔹Reduced environmental impact: our technology minimizes unnecessary burning after engine shutdown, significantly lowering post-flight emissions. This is crucial as we strive to meet stringent sustainability targets. 🔹 Enhanced engine efficiency: even small improvements in engine cooling translate to notable fuel efficiency. This not only cuts operational costs but also supports airlines in meeting their environmental goals. In the recent demonstration with SAS - Scandinavian Airlines for the LEAP-1A engine, dry motoring consumed over 30 kg of fuel, resulting in a notable increase in maintenance costs, which are avoided with AFC cooling units. Read the story: https://lnkd.in/djWBYxP4 🔹Support for regulatory compliance: with mandates like the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive in the EU, airlines must report CO2 emissions. FCS helps by improving fuel flow efficiency, thereby reducing emissions and potentially lowering costs associated with emission trading. 🔹Extended engine longevity: by addressing specific engine challenges, FCS contributes to prolonging engine life. This is a win-win for both sustainability and operational efficiency. 🔹Airport noise and emission reduction: implementing FCS at airports reduces post-flight emissions and promotes the use of quieter ground equipment, such as the AFC-22e, supporting cleaner and quieter local environments. As the pressure mounts on the aviation sector to enhance sustainability, FCS emerges as a key enabler. It not only boosts operational efficiency but also aligns with diverse environmental targets across different operators.

    Real-world demo of AFC-22 jet engine cooling unit by SAS - Scandinavian Airlines at OSL Gardermoen 🛫 On May 22, 2024, SAS - Scandinavian Airlines conducted a practical demonstration of the AFC-22 jet engine cooling unit at Oslo Gardermoen Airport (OSL). The trial compared the AFC-22 with traditional dry motoring to cool down jet engines post-flight. Demo details: ✈️ The aircraft landed at 20:57 and reached the gate at 21:01. Both engines were shut down at 21:02, each with an EGT (Exhaust Gas Temperature) of 367°C.  👨✈️ Staff entered the cockpit at 21:14 to begin recording EGT. Cooling methods tested: 🔧 Left Engine: Cooled using the AFC-22 device 🔧 Right Engine: Cooled through dry motoring Key insights: ⏱️ The test started 15 minutes after engine shutdown, a necessity for dry motoring due to noise and safety. In contrast, the AFC-22 can begin cooling immediately, operating at just 78 dB. 🌡️ By 22:28, the left engine (AFC-22 cooled) reached 48°C, while the right engine (dry motoring) was at 88°C. 🌡️ The starter’s surface temperature during dry motoring hit 157°C, highlighting significant heat build-up. 🌡️ The AFC-22 maintained an airflow of 1.7-1.8 cubic meters/sec throughout the test. Advantages of AFC-22: 🔧 Requires no qualified technician, unlike dry motoring. 🔧 Efficient, quieter operation. 🔧 Immediate cooling capability. This demonstration underscores the AFC-22's potential to enhance operational efficiency and safety in aircraft engine cooling. 🔎 Discover more in Einar Jenssen's blog: https://lnkd.in/djWBYxP4 📞 Contact our team for more information: sales@fcsfinland.fi & tel. +358 40 7230555 #aviation #innovation #aircraftmaintenance #SAS #AFCCooling #jetengine #OSLGardermoen #aerospace
