Information
Compressors and turbines are one type of "turbomachinery." While it
is somewhat difficult to provide a precise engineering definition
of this term, one description is "a machine which performs
continuous energy conversion between fluid energy and mechanical
energy by means of a rotating impeller." Machines that we use
everyday, such as fans, propellers, turbines, pumps, water wheels,
windmills, jet engines, and automobile turbo chargers are all types
of turbomachinery. The turbomachinery manufactured by Mitsubishi
Heavy Industries Compressor Corporation (MCO) used for the gas and
petrochemical industries of these machines. Specifically, these
products include the compressors which compress the air and gas
necessary for production at production facilities such as chemical
plants, gas plants, and steel works, as well as the steam turbines
which drive these compressors. These products are active in energy
industry and petrochemical industry fields all over the world. The
rotors we produce range up to diameters of over 2 meters and
weights exceeding 10 tons. MCO possess the world-leading design and
production technologies that are needed to ensure high-speed and
stable operation of these rotors.
