Turbine blades are most critical parts in power generation facilities, and are called the core of power station. The manufacturing level of turbine blades reflects the comprehensive capability of metallurgical, material, machine building, process design and technology in the manufacturing industry of a country. Before 1980s China could only produce blades for below 210MW power generating units. In order to manufacture large steam turbine blades domestically and reduce import from overseas, in the late 1970s former National Planning Commission and Ministry of Machine Building made a decision to invest a steam turbine blades factory in China. Consequently Wuxi Turbine Blade Works was formed on January 1, 1979. Through over 20 years continuous effort, WTB has made great achievements in management, technology and equipments. With 11200T clutch-operated screw press, 4000T hydraulic screw press, numbers of deep grinding machines for round and straight blade root and 4-axis/5-axis profile CNC milling machines, WTB has become the largest steam turbine blade manufacturer all over the country and has been able to produce large-size blades for 1000MW super-critical steam turbines. The large-size blades produced by WTB have covered over 70% domestic market share and the last two stages blades for 30/60MW steam turbines have taken 90% market share in China. While being a manufacturing center of large and middle-size blades in China; WTB is making great effort to improve technology, management and products quality, raise our competitive factors to expand our export in international blades market. WTB has passed QA certification by numbers of world top turbine manufacturers. WTB has supplied various kinds of blades to Japan, Italy, India, France and America etc.
