• Precision machining capability

• Strict inspection procedures

• Complete manufacturing traceability

• Competitive cost control

JIANGSU HUI XUAN NEW ENERGY EQUIPMENT CO., LTD. provides integrated manufacturing solutions for global industrial customers, specializing in heavy forgings, rotor forgings, precision machining, and quality-controlled production processes.

This case demonstrates Hui Xuan’s capability in manufacturing high-performance alloy steel rotor forgings for demanding energy applications.

Project Background: High Requirements for Turbine Rotor Forgings

A global energy equipment customer required a customized rotor forging solution for industrial turbine applications.

The component required:

• High-strength alloy steel forging

• Vacuum-treated steel material

• Strict chemical composition control

• Stable mechanical properties

• Rough machining according to engineering drawings

• Complete inspection documentation

The material specification followed:

ASTM A470/A470M-05 (2015) Grade D Class 8 CrMoV alloy steel

This type of forged component operates under high-speed rotation and elevated temperature conditions, requiring excellent structural stability and long-term reliability.

Manufacturing Challenge: Controlling the Complete Forging Process

For large rotor forgings, the main challenge is not only shaping the steel but controlling the complete manufacturing chain.

The production process requires coordination of:

Steel Melting → Vacuum Treatment → Forging → Heat Treatment → Machining → Inspection → Documentation

The forging process must meet strict requirements for:

• Material quality

• Internal structure

• Mechanical performance

• Dimensional accuracy

• Operational stability

The manufacturing process follows ASTM A470/A470M recommendations, including melting control, vacuum treatment, discard requirements, and forging process control.

This precise material control ensures stable performance for demanding industrial applications.

Solution 2: Precision Machining Capability Creates Additional Value

A major advantage of Hui Xuan is the ability to combine:

Forging + Heat Treatment + Precision Machining

Many forging suppliers only provide rough forged blanks. However, Hui Xuan focuses on delivering components closer to final customer requirements.

For this rotor forging project, the forging was supplied with rough machining according to customer drawings.

Machining Capability Includes:

Rough Machining

Purpose:

• Establish accurate machining references

• Prepare components for inspection

• Improve dimensional control

Precision Machining

Hui Xuan provides machining solutions focused on:

• Large component machining

• Dimensional accuracy

• Surface finish control

• Assembly preparation

By integrating machining processes internally, customers benefit from:

✔ Reduced supplier coordination
✔ Better process control
✔ Shorter production cycles
✔ Lower total manufacturing cost

Solution 3: Heat Treatment Ensures Mechanical Performance

For turbine rotor forgings, heat treatment directly affects service reliability.

The required heat treatment process included:

Double normalizing and tempering

to achieve the required mechanical properties of ASTM A470/A470M-05 Grade D Class 8 alloy steel.

Mechanical performance requirements included:

These requirements ensure the forged rotor maintains reliable performance during long-term operation.

Solution 4: Strict Quality Control and Inspection System

For energy equipment components, internal quality is critical.

Hui Xuan applies strict inspection procedures including:

Ultrasonic Testing (UT)

The rotor forging requires ultrasonic examination to verify internal integrity and ensure no unacceptable internal defects.

Surface Inspection

Additional testing includes:

• Magnetic particle examination

• Dye penetrant testing

to identify surface and subsurface defects.

Complete Manufacturing Traceability

International industrial customers require full documentation and traceability.

Hui Xuan supports complete quality documentation including:

• Forging identification

• Heat number records

• Chemical analysis reports

• Mechanical property test results

• Non-destructive testing records

• Heat treatment cycle records

• Heat stability test reports

This provides customers with confidence in product quality and manufacturing consistency.
