Opposed Piston Engine Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : EL-AET-11579
Lab Instruments Manufacturers manufactures the Opposed Piston Engine trainer in-house at our own India facility, supplying it to aeronautical and mechanical engineering labs, and as an OEM/private-label item to distributors and exporters across India and internationally.
What This Trainer Does
This trainer is a horizontally-opposed 6-cylinder aircraft-engine demonstration unit, representing the general architecture used in engines of the Lycoming/Piaggio/Continental type, fitted with a single-body carburettor, air cooling with gear-driven camshaft distribution in the crankcase, and magneto ignition. For classroom use it is electrically operated (230V motor) rather than run on fuel, and is mounted on a wheeled stand for easy positioning. This is an independently manufactured teaching unit; it is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or a genuine product of Lycoming, Piaggio, or Continental.

Typical Lab Use
Engineering colleges use this trainer in aeronautical and mechanical engineering coursework to teach opposed-cylinder aircraft-engine architecture — carburation, air cooling, camshaft drive, and magneto ignition — without needing to run the unit on actual fuel, complementing the running small-scale engine covered by our Radial Engine trainer.
Manufactured In-House
This trainer is assembled and finished at our own India production facility. Manufacturing in-house means our team controls build quality at every stage, and can configure the stand or accompanying courseware for a specific curriculum or export order without waiting on an outside supplier.
