Hydropower
Hydropower plants and equipment are known to be subject to high cavitation, erosion, and vibration wear. These types of wear can occur on the scroll casing, guide vanes, and runner blades. We have designed special cladding wires and one-of-a-kind restoration and cladding services to repair damages on turbines and mantles. These specially developed products are also used by our Integra™ Service Centre teams and will ensure your equipment achieves a far greater lifetime.
Our technical know-how, specialist welding personnel, and advanced consumables ensure fast and reliable repair welding of pump casings and components.
Wear and erosion of turbines and mantles can be maintained through regular maintenance checks and repairs. Our solutions enable proactive management of damages, allowing for timely repairs and maintenance.
Our solutions can help increase plant efficiency by repairing worn parts that are costly to replace.

Among the different kinds of turbines currently used in hydropower production, the Pelton turbine is one of the most complex and fascinating in terms of design.
Case Studies
When Welding Alloys was approached by a large hydropower plant customer in Brazil, they were in critical need for a sustainable repair solution to maintain their turbines, that were losing metal at a rate of 1kg daily as a result of cavitation.
