generators
Generator shafts are at the heart of power generation.
Due to the high stress caused by centrifugal forces, they must be particularly tough and strong.
steam turbines
We manufacture forged steam turbines for the following areas of application:
Nuclear use (e.g. monobloc shafts, multi-piece shaft sets for welding)
Fossil use (e.g. 10% chrome shafts like CostE/F, FB2 for supercritical power plants)
Industrial use (e.g. 2% chrome steel for combination shafts)
Use in the field of renewable energies (e.g. geothermal, solar thermal)
gas turbines
Gas turbines consist of a compressor and a turbine part. Regardless of whether welded or screwed variations, Saarschmiede is a globally recognized supplier. Our portfolio includes the following forged parts:
compressor pulleys
gas turbine discs
Accessories such as hollow shafts, tie rods and shaft ends
cap rings
Cap rings are among the most stressed parts of a generator. They are each shrunk onto one end of the generator shaft and protect the windings against centrifugal forces.
