Loose stator vanes and protruding shims can heighten aerodynamic stimuli that increase deterioration which can lead to catastrophic damage.

CTTS's patented solution locks vanes into a robust ring segment that reduces the wear and tear that leads to costly compressor failure. 

The calculated performance can be as much as 0.3% which on a 7FA base loaded gas turbine can save over $100k/year in fuel cost in addition to reduced emissions.
