On the production of blades for steam turbines

Abstract

The diploma thesis is focused on solution of technology optimization of steam turbine rotor blades machining. Main goal is to evaluate machining cost accord-ing to change of tools feedrate speed and proposed production technology. During experimental production was monitored the tool wearing VBB of roughing and finishing mill cutter depending on machining time tA. Further, there was evaluated new technology time saving – two piece production and material consumption. The results of experiment are material cost saving and noticeable time reduction for machining of rotor blade, mainly reduction of non-machine working time
