MAIN FEEDS
r/engineering • u/KnownSoldier04 Glorified steel salesman • 21d ago
Customer hired us to do some testing to see if they can revive this old 70s GE turbine generator. Nozzle ring is made of haynes556 but it’s cracked in a bunch of places.
These little comp. blades are made of an unidentified alloy, 50%Fe, 40%Ni, 10% Cr. If anyone recognizes the alloy, I’d like to know a bit.
At some point, someone put the wrong bolt in the right spot and damaged the whole stage… they want to cut, weld and grind new blades in place… worrying tbh.
More carnage

If that’s not scrap, goodluck fixing it!
