Products

Earthing brushes
Shaft Turbomachinery Solutions Europe supplies high performance and highly reliable SOHRE bristle fiber earthing brushes for use in shaft earthing of all types of stray electrical currents.
The brushes can also be used for the transmission of instrument signals and for online diagnostics of generators or electric motors. SOHRE has continuously improved the earthing brushes and incorporated decades of experience.

Demagnetizer
The mobile magnetic field devices in the MGFE series offer versatile solutions for the precise demagnetization of ferromagnetic components. With innovative alternating field sine pulse technology, supported by specially developed coils and stray field devices, they enable efficient demagnetization. Stray field demagnetizers are ideal for flat objects, while flexible magnetic field cables can reach even hard-to-access areas and can be adapted by connecting several cables. Combinable with SSM coils and also available as custom-made products on request, the systems offer maximum adaptability.

HCP technology
From the rolling bearing to the sensor. HCP-LubSecure prevents bearing damage through lubrication monitoring. HCP-Surface offers a simple solution for measuring the forces acting in the machine directly at the point of action. In addition to force measurement and lubrication monitoring, the sensor technology from HCP Sense also offers the possibility of detecting rolling bearing damage at an early stage and tracking its progress.

Protection of turbomachinery against shaft currents
One of the main problems that we combat with our products is shaft currents. These are caused by electrical charges on the shaft and can cause considerable damage to turbomachinery through spark discharges. This leads to material erosion, failures and very high costs.
We offer a proven solution with shaft earthing brushes made of silver and gold fibers. These ensure reliable contact, low resistance and operate with minimal wear - significantly better than conventional graphite or carbon brushes.
With over 10,000 brushes installed worldwide, Sohre brushes are the ideal choice for long-lasting protection and minimal maintenance.
About us
About Shaft Turbomachinery
Shaft Turbomachinery Solutions Europe offers high performance and highly reliable bristle fiber brushes that are used as shaft grounding for any kind of electrical shaft stray currents. Furthermore, the brushes can also be used for the transmission of instrument signals and online diagnostic work for generators or electric motors.
In addition to the proven earthing products, we offer services such as demagnetization of parts and machines as well as on-site measurements and investigations to identify the causes of electrical shaft currents.
Services

Measurement of electrical wave currents
By working with Sohre Turbomachinery, we have experienced personnel available to conduct comprehensive on-site surveys to identify areas of potential concern and risk. In return, we provide our recommendations and expertise on smooth machine operation to mitigate current and future problems by determining if electromagnetic or electrostatic sources are present.
Prevention
Solving the shaft flow problem is crucial for all turbomachinery applications.
