ABSTRACT:
A method for the maintenance of gas turbines is provided. According to the method, a gas turbine is dismantled and modules, structural components, or component parts of the aeroplane mechanism are subsequently inspected and/or repaired. Then, an aeroplane mechanism consisting of inspected and/or repaired or new modules, structural components or component parts is mounted. Dismantling and/or mounting is divided into at least two work steps. A work station is provided for each work step and the aeroplane mechanism, modules, structural components or component parts of the aeroplane mechanism are displaced by the work station provided for carrying out one work step.
