Dressing Tools

Diamond Dressing Roller – Turbine Blades

Electroplated negative dressing rollers for profile grinding of turbine blades made from nickel-based alloys.

Diamantabrichtrolle – Turbinenschaufel

A turbine is a machine that converts the energy of a flowing fluid into rotational motion. The turbine blade plays a decisive role in this process.

Due to the high mechanical and thermal loads, turbine blades have long been made from special nickel-based alloys and additionally coated for higher erosion resistance. Profile contour and surface quality are manufactured and checked against the component’s aerodynamic and thermal requirements. An accurate profile alone does not determine the flow regime in operation.

EHWA has supplied renowned turbine blade manufacturers for years.
