250-Ton Turn-Down Fixture for Heavy Industrial Equipment

250-Ton Turn-Down Fixture for Heavy Industrial Equipment

Customer Challenge

A turbine manufacturer needed a fixture to safely rotate a 250-ton stator housing while staying within crane limits. Manual rigging increased downtime and risk.

ENSER’s Solution

ENSER created a hydraulic turn-down fixture built from high-strength, lightweight alloys. Drawing on experience from Below-the-Hook Lifting Devices and Engineering Services, the design achieved balanced rotation via synchronized hydraulic circuits. The solution met all ASME B30.20 safety standards.

Its control and balancing system informed the roller synchronization logic later used in ENSER’s Power Rollers for 300-Ton Generator.

Value Delivered

  • Controlled rotation for extreme loads.
  • Reduced crane time and operator exposure.
  • Modular design adaptable to future equipment.

FAQ

How is rotation synchronized?

Can the fixture handle larger stators?

Industries We Support

  • Aerospace: Optimize weight and structural integrity for flight-critical components. Ensure durability in high-vibration and pressurized environments. Use modal analysis to avoid resonant frequency issues.
  • Automotive: Validate crashworthiness, NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness), fatigue life of chassis components, and thermal stability of underhood assemblies. Support design of electric vehicle battery casings and cooling systems.
  • Energy: Ensure structural integrity of turbines, piping systems, and support structures under thermal and mechanical loading. Analyze thermal stresses in weldments, simulate pressure cycling effects, and model fluid-structure interaction.
  • Industrial Equipment: Optimize weight and structural integrity for flight-critical components. Ensure durability in high-vibration and pressurized environments. Use modal analysis to avoid resonant frequency issues.
  • Defense: Validate crashworthiness, NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness), fatigue life of chassis components, and thermal stability of underhood assemblies. Support design of electric vehicle battery casings and cooling systems.
