New LEAP-1A test cell

TAP Maintenance & Engineering will soon reach another important milestone, as we have completed construction on our renewed and certified engine test cell at our main base in Lisbon.

The new test cell is fully equipped and presently inducting engines and will support TAP ME’s full engine overhaul capability.

We have been a long-time service provider of MRO capabilities for CFMI’s engine models, and this new service line addition will enable the testing of the new engine type: LEAP-1A as well as maintaining the CFM56-5B, -7B and -5A.

The renewed test cell has been upgraded to make it compatible with the new generation of engines and will have a testing capacity of about 100 engines per year.

TAP ME has over 55 years of vast experience and remains committed to helping its customers obtain the most effective maintenance solutions for their engines. We are evolving and defining services for future powerplant with an excellent standard of service, extensive in-house repair capability and highly competitive commercial offers.
