Zusammenfassung: | A method of repairing a tip for an airfoil is disclosed herein. In various embodiments, the method comprises: removing a portion of the airfoil that reduces a radial height of the airfoil and at least partially removes a defect of the airfoil; removing a remainder of the defect; joining, via gas tungsten arc welding, a filler material to the airfoil to repair the defect; and joining a first mating surface of the airfoil to a second mating surface of a blade tip body via a solid-state joining process. |
