Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2412473A1] The method comprises positively and/or non-positively connecting a first upper half-shell (1) with a first lower half-shell (2), and positively and/or non-positively connecting a second upper half-shell (3) with a second lower half-shell (4). The first upper and first lower half-shell are welded together with the second upper and second lower half-shell. The first upper and first lower half-shell and/or the second upper and second lower half-shell are connected together by screws, shrink rings or lids that are covered during the welding. The method comprises positively and/or non-positively connecting a first upper half-shell (1) with a first lower half-shell (2), and positively and/or non-positively connecting a second upper half-shell (3) with a second lower half-shell (4). The first upper and first lower half-shell are welded together with the second upper and second lower half-shell. The first upper and first lower half-shell and/or the second upper and second lower half-shell are connected together by screws, shrink rings or lids that are covered during the welding. After the welding, the first upper and second upper half-shell are separated at a horizontal split joint from the first lower and second lower half-shell. The half-shells are equally large. The first upper and the second upper and/or the first lower and the second lower half-shell are formed from different materials. A cast steel is used for the first upper and the first lower half-shell, and a nickel-base casting is used for the second upper and second lower half-shell. The first upper and first lower half-shell and/or the second upper and second lower half-shell are connected together at an end face in a region of a circumferential welding (5) by a connection welding.
