TURNING GEAR
For Generators
Features
- A device that rotates the rotors of large gas turbines, steam turbines, and generators at low speed.
- Protects the equipment through auxiliary rotation before and after start-up or shutdown (prevents rotor bending caused by heat).
- Thermal Deformation Prevention
Prevents rotor bowing or sagging that may occur when the turbine stops after high-temperature operation. - Start-up Assistance
Rotates the rotor slowly before start-up to verify lubrication oil supply and check bearing condition. - Maintenance Support
Used for fine adjustment of rotor position during turbine disassembly or inspection.
