3D inspection of steam turbine

2021-11-19 A+ A A-

Steam turbines are the main equipment of modern thermal power plants. Rotating steam power plants are used in metallurgical industry, chemical industry, and ship power plants. Rotors equipped with blade rows rotate. The customer needs to scan the rotating blade row of the steam turbine to obtain data for comparison and analysis. Use our new scanning equipment to scan the samples comprehensively to obtain the required data and apply them to the work of the steam turbine to produce better equipment.

Practical problems

The steam turbine has a large volume and a small blade row gap, which is easy to form an angle. The customer requires high scanning data accuracy and good scanning technology, which can complete the work in a short time, which is very challenging.

The traditional scanning method has limitations in use. The sample size is too large, it is not easy to splice, consumes too much time, cannot meet the demand, and solves the problem quickly.

Holon solutions

Regardless of the size of the sample, we have equipment suitable for scanning. For this customer to scan the steam turbine, our engineers use the three-dimensional photogrammetric system HL-3DP to perform a comprehensive scan. At the beginning, the code points are pasted, and then the image is taken from different angles. , Import the image into the HOLON3DP software for processing, and the software will automatically combine the images to obtain the 3D coordinates of the code point.

Then import the obtained 3D data into the 3D software and compare and analyze the original data, and generate a test data analysis report. The detailed scan is very good, the data is complete, and the problem can be directly seen. The customer is very satisfied with the data we scanned and can actually solve it. The problem, the design of the steam turbine can be improved based on the test data, and products with more market competitiveness can be produced.
