Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1865080A1] The manufacture of shafts useful in steam turbine, comprises arranging diameter transitions (3) and/or notch area between neighboring steps (2) of the shaft, controllably quenching the diameter transitions and/or notch area within a framework of a thermal treatment of the shaft, spraying the diameter transitions and/or notch area for quenching purposefully with a quenching medium, and cooling the diameter transitions and/or notch area by a dipping procedure. The shafts are implemented as stepped shafts with sequential steps of different diameter. The manufacture of shafts useful in steam turbine, comprises arranging diameter transitions (3) and/or notch area between neighboring steps (2) of the shaft, controllably quenching the diameter transitions and/or notch area within a framework of a thermal treatment of the shaft, spraying the diameter transitions and/or notch area for quenching purposefully with a quenching medium, and cooling the diameter transitions and/or notch area by a dipping procedure. The shafts are implemented as stepped shafts with sequential steps of different diameter. The diameter transitions and/or notch area are manufactured with an oversize (8) provided on a final end contour (7) and have a radius of 25-50 mm in its thermal treatment contour. The thermal treatment contour (6) is removed during the production of the final end contour and/or after quenching. The oversize has a value of 10-40 mm related to the final end contour of the wave.
