Steam Turbine Alignment Seminar (3 Days)
The Steam Turbine Alignment seminar teaches participants the theory and correct alignment practices for steam turbine-generators. Particular emphasis will be placed on large steam units. Various methods of alignment will be addressed including tight wire, laser, ERAG/CAT, Alignment Bar, and Lead Wire. The following alignment processes will also be discussed: Tops off alignment, Tops-on / Tops-off alignment, and Topless Alignment®. The program includes a coupling alignment workshop using mechanical simulators for “hands-on” learning experience.
The program begins with a review of steam turbine and generator construction and relevant, major components. Participants will build their understanding using two rotor, four bearing simple setup and finally address issues that come up with multiple rotor systems, 3-bearing units, and others.
This program is geared toward plant engineers, maintenance engineers, system engineers and others who participate in or have oversight responsibility for unit alignment, with 0-5 years of experience. Some knowledge of steam turbine technology would be helpful although not required. Experienced engineers will also benefit from the training.
