2 ashes removed with our thermal lance, Friday 10-12-2021, 10:06 o'clock.

A message comes in The Wheel services. This company specializes in, among other things, on-site machining and was called in to 2 Boring shafts at Holland Shipyards in Hardinxveld-Giessendam. The ship Rotra Vente what is often used for the transport of windmills and windmill parts at sea was at this yard for maintenance. During this maintenance, the maintenance crew encountered a time-consuming problem.

The problem

The two axles with a size of ø160 x 600mm were firmly fixed and could not be removed. Not even with the help of hydraulic equipment and not even after simultaneous heating of the ears. A combination of hydraulic pulling with 60 tons and simultaneously pressing with 100 tons would not have led to any movement of the axles. Our thermal lance can then offer a simple solution.

Several employees had already been working on it for 2 days. A significant number of man hours had already been lost.

Because the boring of the shafts would be a very time-consuming activity, it was then decided to use the thermal lance. This is why our company came into the picture. The thermal lance is a tool with which we have extensive experience, We can smooth out axes to the millimeter without damaging the fit. Our customers rely on our specialization and expertise.
