On-site diagnostics of Lufkin NF38 19D turbo gearbox

Detailed condition inspection and gear teeth analysis of a massive 52.8 MW Lufkin gearbox in Sweden, ensuring power generation reliability.

We executed a specialized on-site diagnostic operation in Sweden for a high-capacity Lufkin NF38 19D turbo gearbox. As a critical driver in the power generation sector, this parallel shaft unit transmits a massive 52,810 kW at input speeds exceeding 5,500 rpm.

To ensure the continued reliability of this strategic asset, Wikov specialists performed a comprehensive condition inspection. The scope included a general visual assessment followed by a detailed examination of the gear teeth. By meticulously checking contact patterns and surface integrity, we provided the client with precise data on the gearbox's health, allowing for optimized maintenance planning and risk mitigation.
