Steam turbine spare parts

Posteor ® supplies a wide range of spare parts for steam turbines made by various OEM, e.g. PBS, Skoda, Siemens, Alstom, Lang, Zamech, AEG, KKK, ABB, BBC, Yugoturbina.

Production is carried out based on the entrusted documentation or documentation made by our team according to the principles of reverse-engineering.
As a result of the project co-financed by European Funds, entitled “Implementation of the technology of manufacturing spare parts for steam turbines using the reverse-engineering method”, posteor ® has implemented a new manufacturing process of spare parts for steam turbines.
The previously using process has been improved and modernized. Introduced changes allow for a shorter manufacturing time, bigger precision of workmanship and greater durability of the elements by increasing the hardness in the nitriding process.
Changes concern key steps of the manufacturing process of spare parts i.e. measurements, stellite surfacing and surface preparation for gas nitriding.

Our offer includes the production of spare parts for steam turbines and auxiliary devices:

  • steering diaphragms (discs)
  • nozzle segments
  • complete stop valves,
  • complete control valves,

Renovations of steam turbines

Posteor ®  offers a comprehensive renovation service taking into account maintaining the operational availability, reduction of number and time of downtime and optimalization of operating costs.

The scope of our services is tailored individually to the client’s needs and mainly concerns repairs:

  • complete turbine sets
  • torque converter
  • condensate pumps
  • backflow preventer
  • heat exchangers,
  • fittings,
  • bearing stands,
  • steering disk clamps,
  • gland bodies,
  • valve chambers,
  • turbine bearings,

Diagnostics services

Information about the turbine status and turbine related devices is collected as part of the diagnostic study.

The collected information allows to assess the changes taking place in the turbine operation and plan activities related to the improvement on the operation of the devices.

If required we offer our  assistance in configuring the optimal scope of diagnostics.

The scope of diagnostic service is tailored individually to the client’s needs and applies to:

  • diagnostics of control systems,
  • diagnostics of lubricating oil systems,
  • diagnostics of the dynamic state on the machine,
  • modernization of special measurement systems.

The main elements of the turbine regulation systems are renovated in our workshop and tested at our hydraulic testing station.

We perform diagnostics of both modern electro-hydraulic solutions based on medium and high pressure systems and actuators from Vickers, Rexroth, Moog, Voith, as well as conventional low and medium pressure mechanical-hydraulic systems. Our equipment allows for the diagnosis and setting of the following assemblies.

Diagnostics is provided for the following units:

  • control valve servomotors,
  • stop valve servomotors,
  • mechanical safety regulators,
  • mechanical rotation regulators,
  • pressure regulators,

Modernization

Modernization of turbine sets is aimed at increasing their efficiency, preventing excessive wear   of devices and improving overall efficiency, availability and ease of use.

By using of modern control and measurement devices, modernization reduces the costs on operation and repairs and enable early detection of possible faults.

The scope of modernization is tailored individually to the client’s needs and applies to:

  • comprehensive modernization of turbine sets,
  • comprehensive modernization of torque converters,
  • lubricating systems,
  • accelerated cooling systems,
  • control systems,
  • bypass systems,
