Following an introduction to CNOOC and a visit to ATL during the summer by a delegation from China, ATL was delighted to respond and visit Beijing last week. Our pictures show Dale Harris and Dale Ferguson with Shibin Sun, ATL’s business partner in China. Visits were completed to CNOOC site (which is being heavily invested in) and head office and to PipeChina, which has a very impressive facility in Langfang, near Beijing. ATL is looking forward to working with @CNOOC CNOOC with a long-term view to supporting their gas turbine requirements.

Component Engineering | 2024 Highlights 📆 These parts are now long gone back to our customer and will be working hard in an engine somewhere around the world now 🌎 Following their condition assessment, they were welded, blended, recoated and heat treated ready to be returned to service. We said goodbye but not farewell!! Find out more about our component care programme: https://lnkd.in/eSvZgVcV #ATL #ComponentCare #YearHighlights #GasTurbine #Parts #Engineering

Component Assessments | 2024 Highlights 📆 The award for the biggest part in for assessment this year has to go to these RB211 HPT discs! 🥇 In engineering terms, they can be described as 'chunky', 'hefty' or just 'muckle'! Either way, they are now back in an engine and no doubt we'll see them again - just not for a while! #ATL #ComponentCare #YearHighlights #RB211 #Assessments #Engineering

Component Assessments | 2024 Highlights 📆 One of the things we do at ATL is NDT parts and these blades and vanes from back in February are good examples of what this process looks like mid way through. ATL has NADCAP accreditation for NDT, and this sits as a vital part of the 'A' in our CARE programme. A good assessment of condition is core to understanding how to deliver a robust repair! ⚙️ #ATL #ComponentCare #YearHighlights #NDT #GasTurbine #Blades #Vanes

Turbine blades fit into turbine discs (unless you have a blisk where they're all in one but let's not complicate it!). The seal fins in the disc can wear and sometimes need welded to make them fit-for-purpose again. Our rotary welder helps us achieve this repair process and this is what's going on in the below picture. Once done, all ready for its set of blades and once balanced, it's off into an engine for more hard work! #ATL #GasTurbine #Blades #Discs #SealFins #Welding

It’s great to read an article about the power coatings have in gas turbines. Be it thermal barrier coatings for heat protection or hard face coatings for wear resistance, ATL can deliver the protection and coatings required to keep gas turbines operational for many years of service. It’s a very interesting and educational article that is definitely worth a read!

ℹ️ | A quick update on our TB5000 CT2 blades that went through the shop recently! They were a good set with standard repair criteria, which means they received a light weld, were blended back into profile, coated and sent on their way. Our CARE programme means we were able to return 100% of these blades to our customer and save them tens of thousands of pounds and a whole heap of lead time compared to purchasing new ✅ ➡️ https://lnkd.in/dzvwjdH2 #ATL #ComponentRepair #TB5000 #CT2Blades #Blending #Welding

Part of our repair process (for some parts) is a trial build. It's no use each part being individually good if our customers get them back and they don't fit together well. These components have to work as a team!! Our experienced technicians take our repaired sets of components and fit them into a fixture which means when we do final machining of the parts, our customers have the knowledge that they'll fit perfectly into their engine during their build process. #ATL #GasTurbine #Engineering #Component #Repair #Specialists
