Electromagnetic Dent Removal
Requirements
Supplementary Equipment Requirements
A forklift capable of lifting the EDR power supply and supporting it within 20ft (6 meters) of the area to be repaired and a man-lift or suitable scaffold for the operator to stand on may be required, especially when working on larger aircraft.
Environment
The EDR should be used only in dry locations and should be protected from weather at all times. To prevent overheating of internal components, it should be kept out of direct sunlight when in use. Damp or dusty environments should also be avoided.
Power Requirements
Existing EDR models require a three-wire 120VAC, 20A, 60Hz power source (grounded neutral). New equipment could be designed to meet customer specific power needs.
Training
Electroimpact will provide safety training to our EDR customers, either in our facility or theirs, with the purchase of any new EDR and as periodic refresher courses. This training is for the most part limited to basic safe operation and proper care of the EDR to ensure a long product lifetime. During training we will pass along tips and techniques for use, but ultimately it will be up to the customer to develop the necessary skills to effectively pull dents.
Availability
Due to government regulations the EDR is only available to US customers at this time. EDRs are custom built to-order on a contract basis. Time from acceptance to final shipment is typically 12 - 16 months.
