OUR STRENGTH – YOUR ADVANTAGE

YOUR MARKET – OUR SEGMENT: ENERGY For tomorrow’s energy Typical products for energy applications Meeting today’s energy demand while at the same time being sensitive to the needs of the environment is one of the challenges we face today. Energy-efficient and cost-effective turbines – gas, steam or hydro-powered – form the basis of environmentally friendly and economical energy production. Compressor and turbine discs, compressor components, high pressure and intermediate pressure rotors, monobloc rotors, shaft ends, hollow shafts, housing components, coolant pump parts, valve and pump...

The chemistry of life The exploration and extraction of fossil fuels from the bottom of our oceans, the manufacture of plastics or the processing of drinking-water have become common place. Only when these services are disrupted do we notice the extent of our reliance on them. Therefore it is important to offer materials specially designed for highly corrosive environments and extreme mechanical stresses to the industry. Typical products Components for mooring systems (swivels), valve bodies, tubing hangers, hollow bars, hollow shafts, y-pieces, components for centrifugal separators,...

Safety accepts no compromise Manufacturing components for aviation and space programs requires the highest technological standards, strict quality management setup and a great deal of responsibility from the people involved in order to meet the requirements of the world‘s most significant manufacturers of aircraft engines. Typical products Helicopter rotor shafts, turbine shafts, stub shafts, casing and cover turbine pump starters (Ariane V), drive train shafts, pancake discs for prototyping.

ULTIMATIVE FORGING 52 MN press Rotary forging machine The heart of the open die forge is our 5200 t forging press, where materials are shaped to meet exact customer demands. Forged pieces are used whenever the requirements for the mechanical properties of certain components are high. With this most modern and unique production line, BÖHLER is venturing into a new dimension of forged bars and open die forgings. We at BÖHLER are well aware of these requirements and offer you custom-made open die forgings or round and flat steel bars in high alloyed materials. Piece weight from 3 to 30 tons...

SUPERLATIVE MACHINING From rough maching to aerospace – as you like it The machine shop, the highlight at the end of the production chain. Here is where all of the production steps come together to be matched to your individual requirements. This guarantees the full quality control cycle from a single source. The forged parts are rough machined on state-of-the-art CNC milling, drilling and turning machines in accordance with the specifications and drawings.

Some of our system and material approvals All of the planning, testing and productions steps involved in the manufacturing of forged billets are, of course, included in our Quality Assurance System.

RESEARCH It is the mind that controls the body Today, to a certain degree, it is possible to design new materials at the computer. A quantum leap. Targeted use of simulation programmes allows complex alloying systems to be captured numerically and to predict the phases which will appear, their composition and their volume fractions. This leads to a better understanding of the materials and also reduces laboratory time and costs during development. In this way, materials and tailor-made properties can be designed. State-of-the-art facilities allow materials properties to be measured which...
