We offer professional solutions for high-strength spare part manufacturing, runner renewal, and cavitation damage repair for Francis, Pelton, and Kaplan turbines in your hydroelectric power plants.
As Tekmaksan Engineering, we provide critical engineering services to ensure that hydroelectric power plants (HEPP), the most important source of renewable energy, operate uninterruptedly and with high efficiency. HEPP turbines are exposed to harsh conditions such as the abrasive effect of water, silt erosion, and cavitation caused by high pressure differences. Over time, this leads to form distortions in turbine runners, wicket gates, and nozzles, resulting in serious efficiency losses. Our company resolves these mechanical problems encountered in Francis, Pelton, and Kaplan type turbines with advanced technology production and repair methods. We can manufacture the turbine runners needed by your power plant from scratch, adhering faithfully to the original design or improving the hydraulic profile with flow analyses. Especially for parts without technical drawings in old power plants, we produce exactly compatible spare parts using on-site 3D optical scanning and reverse engineering methods. In addition to manufacturing, we are experts in filling areas damaged by cavitation with special alloy welding methods, precision machining on CNC benches, and ensuring surface smoothness. Thanks to the static and dynamic balancing tests we perform after all these operations, we guarantee the vibration-free operation of your turbine. Every revision made with Tekmaksan Engineering aims to increase the annual energy production capacity of your power plant and extend the equipment life.
