Bolt Induction Heating Technology Promises Reduced Outage
Global privatization, and the economic demands of the competitive market, are forcing power plant owners to examine operational efficiency and outage times. Privatization has also encouraged the development of gas turbines. Gas turbines typically require maintenance every two years, and owners must closely evaluate turbine outage times. Swift and efficient bolt removal is vital. Hydra […]
Torque System of Japan Induction Bolt Heater, the MFC-20 will Substantially Reduce Downtime During Turbine Dis-assembly and Re-assembly
Download Brochure Webinar Schedules There are three (3) ways of tensioning a large diameter bolt, which are mostly for industrial application. Graphically shown below are method of stretching a bolt to attain clamping force on the joint or mating parts. In the heating method, bolt is thermally tension while in the torque method and mechanical […]
