Handling equipment
We have DEMAG overhead cranes for equipment lifting and handling:
- 2 cranes of 50 tons
- 1 crane of 16 tons
- 3 cranes of 5 tons
- 5 cranes of 3.2 tons
And three Lifting beams :
- 2 of 30 tons
- 1 of 50 tons
As well as a tilting device.
This equipment can safely handle a rotor up to 50 tons.
Equipped with a platform lift and adaptable floor to allow for rotor diameters up to a Frame 9FA rotor type
This equipment covers a vertical work range of 11 meters.
It is a fully safe tool facilitating easy de-stacking and stacking of rotors whilst ensuring optimal conditions to keep both operators and material safe.

SCHENCK TARO 3600 static balancing machine
With the available equipment our inspectors, qualified according Cofrend II, are able to conduct the following non-destructive tests:
- Ultrasonic
- Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI)
- Dye Penetrant Inspection (Fluorescent or Color)
EQUIPMENT:
- Drying chambers 2.2 X 2.2M
- Electrostatic powder spray
- Electronically controlled impregnation and drying time

Inspection of parts over 3 meters are executed by means of the measuring tool (digital sensor) on our horizontal lathe.
Geometric control room
Dual cyclone abrasive blast cabinet
Cleaning of parts by bead-blasting (glass beads) or by aluminium oxide.
Assembled rotors are cleaned by dry-ice blasting (CO² dry ice).
