Experience is also central to the application of manufacturing technology for rocketry and space exploration hardware. Machines can be bought, cutter paths can be programmed, and optimism can be boundless, but it takes dedicated and experienced technicians and machinists working closely together to manufacture the components upon which lives will depend. That is the reason why leading engine companies come to TURBOCAM for critical rotating parts.

TURBOCAM manufactures some of the most critical parts in aerospaceparts that simply must not fail. Every employee at our company is a vital link in our quality control system. From the control of material to the delivery of finished product, each aspect of manufacturing is monitored to ensure the perfection of every TURBOCAM-made part.

TURBOCAM supplies compressor impellers to six of the leading manufacturers of industrial air compressors in the world and many other smaller developers and producers of custom machines. Some of the applications are for plant air, air separation, refrigeration and industrial processes.

TURBOCAM has applied its expertise to a wide array of prototype and production pump applications over the years. We have manufactured propellers for axial flow pumps, subsea and spool pumps, nuclear reactor coolant pumps, transfer and mixer pumps for hazardous waste, single and double suction impellers for multi and single stage centrifugal pumps, pump impellers for desalination applications, and much more. We have experience in duplex stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum bronze, 300 and 400 series stainless steel, and many other common wear and corrosion resistant alloys used in this industry.

TURBOCAM produces large numbers of chiller compressors, assembled by brazing or welding covers onto open impellers, or in some cases machining them from a single forging.

TURBOCAM supplies compressor impellers to several leading manufacturers of process gas compressors. These are for demanding applications with corrosive gases in single- or two-phase flow.

TURBOCAM has manufactured precision metal parts for marine applications for over 20 years. We manufacture components for systems that provide power on Naval cruisers and destroyers, propellers for boats and landing craft, impellers for marine turbochargers, and advanced metal parts for undersea warfare applications.

TURBOCAM brings over 30 years of 5-axis machining experience in aeroengine compressor blisks and rocket turbopumps to the world of blades and vanes. The skills developed making these demanding shapes, and producing over 500, 000 compressor impellers and turbine nozzles a year are now being applied to make the rotors and stators of large steam and gas turbines.
