Abstract
The lace convex table of the final stage blade of a 330 MW turbine fractured. The reason was analyzed by fracture analysis, chemical composition analysis and metallographic analysis. It showed that the overload was the main reason for the fracture. Deformation of guide ring caused by fracture of guide ring bolt was the main reason of the overload. The analysis of the guide ring bolt showed that the brittleness of the guide ring bolt was the main reason for its fracture. It was suggested to strengthen the supervision of the manufacturing process of the guide ring bolt. The lace convex table was repaired by surfacing welding. A reasonable welding process was developed and the repair was successful.
