Simone Marangon will be presenting at VGB Conference 2021

In two-year intervals gas turbine experts from operators, manufacturers, planning offices, associations, insurance companies, R&D centres, authorities and corresponding business areas of VGB PowerTech e.V. are invited for intensifying the exchange of experience, findings and ideas by lectures and comprehensive discussions in the area of gas turbines and the gas turbine operation.

Join our presentation Friday 15th where we will share some examples of our innovative solutions in supporting our customers achieve increased efficiency in a range of areas including:
1. Dimensional restoration of a new compressor diaphragm: the repair process involves laser cladding and turning activities maintaining coating and surfaces integrity and without impacting the geometry of the part.
2. Transition pieces with integral panels: drawing of metal sheet panels instead of stamping and reduction of the welding areas. It involves a quality improvement of the base material, that is less affected by the thermal alteration introduced by the welding process, and an important cost reduction that allows the component to be more attractive on the market.
3. Multiple discs groove machining techniques: We identified the requirement to differentiate the blade grooves manufacturing process of both compressor and turbine discs. Heavy duty Broaching and milling techniques have been developed.
