Arkwin Actuators

VBR – Distributor of Arkwin hydraulic actuators

VBR  distributes Arkwin actuators for usage on aero-derivative gas turbines such as the GE LM2500 and GE LM6000. VBR Turbine Partners is offering new actuators from stock. Besides new Arkwin products, VBR Turbine Partners also offers Rotable Exchange options at very favourable pricing for used and unserviceable actuators.

Why is this interesting to operators?

By selecting VBR Turbine Partners as supplier. OEM depots, overhaul facilities, operators and service providers have an extra option to ensure access to Arkwin products. Besides the supply of new Arkwin products from stock and a Rotable Exchange program, we are working to offer customers in-house repair and overhaul options soon too. We expect to be able to repair your actuator as of end 2024.

Industrial Gas Turbine Actuator Exchange Program

Arkwin’s industrial gas turbine engine actuator exchange program developed exclusively for the LM2500 and LM6000 engines provides operators the reliability of OEM new products at a competitive price. The premise of the program is simple – ship us your removed actuator and if it qualifies for a major overhaul, VBR Turbine Partners will exchange it for a factory new OEM production actuator from stock.
