Precise Flow Measurement Solutions for Turbomachinery

High-temperature, high-bandwidth probes and rake systems for compressors, turbines, and fans. Custom 3D-printed designs capture velocity, angle, pressure (static/total), and temperature with minimal blockage.

Typical challenges

  • Extreme gas temperatures and steep thermal gradients in hot-gas paths.
  • Tight inter-blade access/tip clearances; minimize clogging and flow disturbance.
  • Strong unsteadiness requiring kHz-range frequency response.
  • Rig vibration/mechanical loads; need for precise, repeatable traverses.

What we deliver

  • High-temperature capability up to 1800 °C and integrated cooling channels.
  • Custom AM (3D-printed) geometries with ultra-small channels, thin walls, and optional integrated sensors.
  • High-frequency flow measurement solutions up to 5 kHz.
  • Part integration: embedded probe heads in instrumented parts/vanes; AM integral designs with tuned natural frequency.

Additive Manufacturing at Vectoflow

Additive manufacturing is at the heart of Vectoflow’s probe technology. Using advanced 3D-printing processes, we create lightweight yet extremely robust probes with geometries that conventional manufacturing cannot achieve. Complex internal channels, compact multi-sensor designs, and fully integrated features enable reliable flow measurement even under the most demanding aerodynamic and thermal conditions.

All Under One Roof

Our in-house facilities in Gilching (Germany) allow us to move seamlessly from concept to finished probe – combining design, production, and calibration under one roof. The result: tailor-made flow measurement solutions that deliver accuracy, durability, and unmatched flexibility for every application.
