Product Description
Custom-Manufactured Turbine Thrust Pad Inspection Device for Hydropower Plants
Thrust pads are the core load-bearing components of hydro-generator thrust bearings, supporting the entire rotor weight and massive axial hydraulic thrust during unit operation. Uneven force distribution, hidden surface cracks, excessive wear, or abnormal clearance can lead to local overheating, pad burning, and severe unit safety incidents.
The thrust pad inspection device serves as dedicated maintenance equipment for thrust bearing commissioning and overhaul. It detects critical parameters including pad load distribution, surface wear, gap deviation, and babbitt alloy defects, providing reliable data for pad adjustment, grinding, and replacement decisions while effectively reducing thrust-bearing failure risks.
We deliver tailor-made thrust pad inspection device solutions based on customer drawings, unit capacity, thrust-pad dimensions, measuring range, and actual site conditions.
Main Technical Features
High-Precision Multi-Parameter Measurement
Integrated high-accuracy pressure, displacement, and visual inspection sensors for detecting pad stress distribution, clearance values, wear loss, and surface flaws of babbitt alloy/PTFE composite thrust pads.
Two Structural Options
Portable lightweight type for narrow turbine-pit on-site overhaul; integrated bench-type for workshop offline inspection, disassembly, and reconditioning of thrust pads.
Stable Data Acquisition & Output
Reliable data acquisition unit with local display, data storage, and export capabilities for overhaul file archiving. Communication interfaces available for plant monitoring system integration.
Strong Site Adaptability
Anti-interference design suitable for humid, high-vibration hydropower workshop and turbine-pit environments. Simple operation with minimal operator skill requirements.
Full Customization Service
Measuring range, equipment dimensions, sensor layout, and output interfaces customized to match various thrust pad specifications for new-build, retrofit, and overhaul projects. Each unit undergoes strict calibration before shipment.
Application Scope
  • Special maintenance equipment supply for newly-built hydropower stations
  • Thrust-bearing system commissioning, upgrading, and retrofitting of existing hydro-units
  • Overhaul inspection tool for Francis, Kaplan, bulb, and pumped-storage reversible units
  • Medium-large hydropower plants, EPC contractors, and power-asset operators worldwide
Our Services
  • Custom design & fabrication according to customer drawings or technical specifications
  • Scheme optimization for narrow turbine-pit or workshop offline inspection scenarios
  • Complete factory calibration, function testing, and inspection
  • Technical support covering on-site commissioning, operation training, and after-sales maintenance guidance
Please provide unit parameters, thrust-pad dimensions, or technical requirements. We will prepare a targeted technical proposal and quotation for you.
