SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF BLADE TIP REPAIR AND MANUFACUTRING USING FIELD ASSISTED SINTERING

A method of repairing, or manufacturing, a tip (214) for an airfoil (206; 701) can comprise: removing a portion of the airfoil (206; 701) that reduces a radial height of the airfoil (206; 701) and defines a first mating surface (702; 812; 822; 832) of the airfoil (206; 701); forming a blade tip body...

Zusammenfassung:A method of repairing, or manufacturing, a tip (214) for an airfoil (206; 701) can comprise: removing a portion of the airfoil (206; 701) that reduces a radial height of the airfoil (206; 701) and defines a first mating surface (702; 812; 822; 832) of the airfoil (206; 701); forming a blade tip body (306;703) for the airfoil (206; 701), the blade tip body (306; 703) defining a second mating surface (912; 922; 932); and joining the first mating surface (702; 812; 822;832) to the second mating surface (912; 922; 932) via a Field Assisted Sintering Technology ("FAST") process.
