Description

[0002] As the core power equipment, the manufacturing precision of the key component of the cylinder of the gas turbine directly affects the performance and reliability of the whole machine. In the manufacturing process of the cylinder of the gas turbine, an annular groove structure is usually designed at a specific position in the inner cavity. The wall thickness at the annular groove is one of the key features to ensure the structural strength, sealing performance and gas flow dynamics of the cylinder, and the size tolerance requirement is extremely strict. However, due to the complex structure of the cylinder of the gas turbine, the limited space in the inner cavity, and the protruding structural features on the inner wall and the outer wall at the position of the annular groove, it is difficult to measure the wall thickness of the cylinder at the position of the annular groove. The wall thickness quality assurance of the annular groove of the cylinder of the gas turbine still relies on the imported high-precision numerical control machine tool for direct machining, and the high-precision control of the machine tool itself ensures that the wall thickness of the annular groove can meet the accuracy and quality requirements after machining. However, such a method increases the manufacturing cost of the cylinder, and cannot directly and accurately measure the wall thickness of the annular groove for timely detection and isolation of defective products, which poses a batch quality risk.
