	Maintenance on Their Minds (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		EPI Europrop International, which is the technical program manager of the TP400-D6 that will power the Airbus A400M military transport, used CATIA for a digital mock-up, although Karsten Muehlenfeld, EPI technical director, said EPI is preparing a TeamCenter-based IT environment that eventually will manage the engine's configuration, task monitoring and test coordination.
		EPI's Karsten Muehlenfeld said although the first engine designs are frozen for the purpose of showing the concept engine's performance, it's not the final design because EPI will undertake modifications and further optimizations as development progresses.
		EPI and its partners have a modular engine concept for this engine "that isn't on many turboprops yet, which allows the displacement of different modules of the engines," he said.

		EPI will have a full technical and commercial responsability for the TP400-D6 it is developing with its four partners (Snecma Moteurs, Rolls Royce, MTU and ITP).
		Now that the contract is finalized and the industrial scheme well understood by everybody, EPI has entered the important phase of readjusting the specifications, especially in terms of fuel consumption and weight.
		EPI will be around to support the engines for the next decades but not only : the European company will be the melting point of the four partners for any future project.

		EPI will test TP400-D6 components to verify their ability to function in the increased-thrust environment, but the engine maker will not test a full-up engine during the certification process to confirm this capability.
		EPI WAS FOUNDED by four companies--France's Snecma Moteurs, the U.K.'s Rolls-Royce, Germany's MTU and Spain's IPT (in which Rolls holds a large stake).
		The chairman of EPI's board is also chairman of the shareholder committee, and this position currently is held by a representative from Snecma.

	A400M Future Large Aircraft - FLA
		In May 2003 Airbus Military announced that the engine selected to power the A400M will be the TP400-D6, to be developed and manufactured by EPI (EuroProp International), a European consortium.
		The choice of the TP400-D6 was the result of an exhaustive evaluation of two separate engine proposals submitted by Pratt & Whitney Canada and EPI.
		The TP400-D6 will be the most powerful turbo-prop engine ever produced in the western world and, combined with the aircraft's aerodynamic qualities, will make the A400M the world's fastest new-generation turbo-prop aircraft.
