B.E. Adaptor
In July 2006, we were approached to design a mechanism to adapt a switch/encoder assembly onto a B.E. Swing Pedal. The company who approached us had already spoken to several engineering firms in an
effort to resolve the problem.
One of these engineering companies had seen a sample of our work and suggested the client give us a call. They explained basically what was required, and left us to come up with a solution.
We had to overcome two design challenges, differences in cabin floor thicknesses and possible alignment problems when the units were fitted.
Within a few days we had our design worked out and once the parts were sourced we built five units which are now in full service.
The unit also has a dust proof cover.
The B.E. Adaptor is a suitable replacement for G.E. Switchgear. If the B.E. Box is mounted on a hinged up trap door, it then makes in cabin servicing possible with no cherry pickers required!
