Impeller Prototype Machining
Comprehensive CNC Machining
By combining the collaborative efforts of 3-axis, 4-axis, and 5-axis CNC machines, the unique strengths of each can be fully utilized to efficiently, precisely, and cost-effectively manufacture impellers.
Tight precision requirements
A turbine blade precision of up to 0.01 millimeters is a critical benchmark in high-end manufacturing, achieved through advanced processes, precise inspection, and stringent quality control.
Mass production and supply
Mass production of high-precision turbine blades relies on automation, standardized processes, and strict quality control, achieving efficiency through scale and optimized supply chains.
Highly Skilled Hand-Polishing
Meticulous handcrafted techniques achieve exceptional surface finishes and customization. Though time-consuming and costly, they are essential in industries requiring high precision and aesthetics.
The Balance Between Dynamics and Aesthetics
Types of Impellers Processed by Kesu
Various types of impellers are designed for different applications. Open impellers, though prone to faster wear, are ideal for handling low-viscosity fluids. Semi-open impellers can accommodate liquids containing small solid particles, while closed impellers offer high efficiency when pumping clean liquids. Double-suction impellers, designed to balance hydraulic pressure, enable higher flow rates. Axial flow impellers are best suited for scenarios requiring high flow and low head, whereas mixed flow impellers integrate both radial and axial flow properties. Radial flow impellers, on the other hand, are used in high-head pumps. Due to their intricate design and strict precision demands, closed and double-suction impellers pose greater machining challenges.
Vortex Impeller
The blade shape is relatively complex, and to ensure wear resistance, surface strengthening treatments (such as heat treatment or coating) are often applied.
Radial Impeller
For impellers with high precision requirements, the blades are usually arranged radially, demanding high manufacturing accuracy and dynamic balance.
Open Impeller
The production process involves CNC machining or precision casting to ensure blade accuracy, followed by surface treatment to enhance corrosion resistance.
Cutter Impeller
The cutter impeller, made from high-hardness alloys, features sharp edges for cutting fibers. It is cast or forged, then hardened for durability and efficiency.
Closed Impeller
Since the blades are enclosed between the front and rear covers, efficiency is high, but machining is difficult and usually requires five-axis CNC for precision.
Axial Flow Impeller
Due to the large blade angle, machining must ensure a smooth surface to enhance fluid dynamic performance, reduce resistance, and improve overall efficiency.
Kesu’s strengths
A titanium alloy impeller is a high-performance rotating component used in pumps, compressors, and turbines. It is designed to move fluids or gases efficiently while withstanding extreme conditions. Titanium alloys, such as Ti-6Al-4V, are commonly used due to their high strength, corrosion resistance, and low weight.
Common Applications: Aerospace, automotive, construction, electronics
An aluminum alloy impeller is a lightweight, high-performance rotating component used in pumps, fans, compressors, and turbines to move fluids or gases efficiently. Made from aluminum alloys like 6061, 7075, or A356, these impellers provide a balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and cost-effectiveness.
Common Applications: Aerospace, medical implants, marine applications
