Part Manufacturing

Gas nitriding develops a very hard surface on a component at relatively low temperature, without the need for quenching. As a result, a very high strength product with extremely good wear resistance can be produced with little or no dimensional change. For valve components, these material enhancements translate into increased durability and service life – and ultimately – reduced maintenance cost. Please visit our website or call us to learn more.

Part Manufacturing

Milling is the process of machining using rotary cutters to remove material by advancing a cutter into a work piece. Our subsidiary company, Orbital Energy Services, utilizes a variety of processes (such as milling) to manufacture parts with improved durability and prolonged component life. Our Gainesville, Georgia Part Manufacturing Facility is ISO 9001:2015 Certified! Call the turbine experts today to learn more!

Steam Turbine Valve Inspections

We recently performed work for a U.S. utility on one of their Main Stop Valves for a GE Steam Turbine.  We can perform valve inspections on-site or in our dedicated steam turbine valve facility in Gainesville, Georgia.  If the valves are inspected at our Gainesville facility we have the ability to make any necessary repairs, reverse engineer and manufacture components, as well as offer material upgrades for longer service life.  We also have an in-house nitriding furnace that allows to control the schedule and provide quick turnarounds on any parts that require a nitrided surface.   We have full capabilities to provide our customers with a turnkey valve service and help extend the life of your steam turbine valves.
