Challenge Group has announced the launch of its latest innovation at its hub in Liège - an exclusive engine dolly designed for the safe transport of aircraft engines directly from the offloading point to the aircraft door.

This specialized dolly sets a new industry benchmark with advanced shock-absorbing cushions that protect sensitive engines from tarmac vibrations. With a maximum capacity of 13,800 kg and flexible loading options for 16FT X-load, 20FT, and 10FT configurations, it provides a seamless and secure transportation solution. The dolly is compatible with Trent engines, ranging from the 500 to 1000 versions used in Boeing and Airbus models. Additionally, it is versatile enough to handle RZX containers (ASML).

David Canavan, Challenge Group COO, stated “This innovative engine dolly significantly enhances our operational capabilities, giving us a distinct edge over the competition. By ensuring the safe and efficient transport of aircraft engines directly from the offloading point to the aircraft door, we not only streamline our processes but also minimize risks associated with warehouse and tarmac vibrations”.

"The introduction of our new specialized dolly represents a significant advancement in our logistics operations, reinforcing our commitment to operational excellence. This equipment is designed to ensure the safe and secure handling of aircraft engines. We are dedicated to providing our business partners with a seamless experience, prioritizing both the efficiency and integrity of their valuable cargo every step of the way.", Or Zak, Challenge Group CCO, added.
