Zusammenfassung:This invention relates to the processing of tip treatment bars of a rotor casing for a gas turbine engine. Tip treatment bars of a rotor casing for a gas turbine engine are subjected to a process which induces compressive stress within the bars The process may be a laser shock peening process applied to opposite sides of each bar The processing of the tip treatment bars renders them less susceptible to fatigue failure.
