<p>Method and apparatus for removing an aerofoil structure (64) from an arcuate casing section (2) of a rotary machine, the apparatus comprising:
a frame (18) which supports or is supported on the casing section (2);
a reaction arm (46) which is rotatably mounted in the frame (18) about an axis parallel to a rotational axis of the arcuate casing section (2), a free end of the reaction arm (46) being adapted to apply a force to the aerofoil structure (64); and a torque multiplier (42) acting between the reaction arm (46) and the frame (18), the torque multiplier (42) being operable to apply the force to the aerofoil structure (64) in a substantially tangential direction of the arcuate casing section (2).</p> |
