Reverse engineering of Kaplan turbine blades

Reverse engineering of Kaplan turbine blades

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.
