A motorcycle frame rack enables a motorcycle frame to be repaired without removing many components from the motorcycle. A motorcycle is positioned on the motorcycle frame rack, secured in place and then the frame is adjusted using chains coupled to towers. A self-centering laser measuring system is able to be used to analyze and measure damage to the motorcycle frame. A dolly device is able to be used to support and transport a motorcycle, including a motorcycle without wheels.

The invention relates to a method for repairing an aircraft or gas turbine component, wherein the method comprises the following automated steps: a) checking the component for cracks by means of an optical measurement method, wherein determined geometry and/or damage data are stored with reference to the component, b) generating an adaptive processing strategy on the basis of the determined geometry and/or damage data in a data processing unit, c) machining the component, d) determining the changed geometry data of the component, e) performing repair welding, f) checking the component for cracks by means of an optical measurement method.

A process for producing an anti-erosion coating on an inner or outer metal wall of a chamber of a fluid catalytic cracking unit, comprising: (i) the shaping of a honeycomb metal anchoring structure, said anchoring structure being formed from a plurality of strips connected in pairs by joining assembly portions of these strips so as to form a plurality of cells between two adjacent strips, (ii) the fastening of said anchoring structure by welding to said metal wall, so that each cell of the anchoring structure is welded to the wall of the chamber at least at the junctions between the contiguous assembly portions of two adjacent strips, and (iii) the insertion of a composite material into the cells from the metal wall and at least up to the upper longitudinal edge of each strip.

A method of removing a metal sleeve from a bore formed in one or more elements is disclosed. The sleeve may be a cold-expanded sleeve secured within the bore by an interference fit. The method includes removing material from the internal surface of the sleeve by a cutter along a line to a depth less than the thickness of the sleeve, and subsequently urging the sleeve from the bore.
