Due to the erosion and corrosion wear of the old blades, the customer decided to replace them. For this purpose, we made a number of 3D laser measurements and scans to redesign the casting as well as the finished machining. The individual stages are presented in the diagram: In the same way, the steering vanes were recreated.

We processed over 200 flanges on cooling system pipelines with diameters Dn270 – Dn610 near Frankfurt am Man, at the construction site of the new Google server station. The aim was to obtain the correct roughness and flatness parameters of the sealing surface.
The unusual task of reaming the existing, twisted central hole in the shaft of the generator rotor was carried out in accordance with the customer’s requirements. The task was to ream the holes Ø81 to Ø90, with the maintenance of a new hole in the shaft axis. Also a challenge was the required roughness Ra = 0.8 µm. And above all, the depth: more than 2000 mm! The task was carried out using a modified BB6000 machine tool, equipped with an appropriate mounting system and a spindle bearing system in the hole according to our concept. Metrological supervision – the reliable Laser Tracker – ensured ongoing alignment corrections and continuous […]
A small power plant with two Kaplan turbines with a total capacity of 18MW. The current modernization will allow for an additional 1 MW/ unit. In our scope a.o. the machining of the runner chamber.
