WELDING Ti-6246 INTEGRALLY BLADED ROTOR AIRFOILS

A method is disclosed for welding a first metal to a Ti-6246 alloy airfoil. The method consists of depositing weld metal by fusion welding and reshaping the airfoil to predetermined dimensions. A post weld heat treatment is applied to relieve residual stresses. Surface treatment such as laser shock...

Zusammenfassung:A method is disclosed for welding a first metal to a Ti-6246 alloy airfoil. The method consists of depositing weld metal by fusion welding and reshaping the airfoil to predetermined dimensions. A post weld heat treatment is applied to relieve residual stresses. Surface treatment such as laser shock peening introduces residual surface compressive stresses to enhance the mechanical integrity of the airfoil.
