Abstract:
A process for manufacturing a turbine engine component includes the steps of: providing a powder containing gamma titanium aluminide; and forming a turbine engine component from said powder using a direct metal laser sintering technique.
Abstract:
A process for producing sheets of .gamma.-TiAl includes the steps of forming a melt of a .gamma.-TiAl alloy; casting the T-TiAl alloy to form an as-cast .gamma.-TiAl alloy; encapsulating the as--cast y-TiAl alloy to form an as-cast .gamma.-TiAl alloy preform; and rolling the as-cast .gamma.T-TiAl alloy preform to form a sheet comprising .gamma.-TiAl.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for transient liquid phase bonding are described herein. Embodiments of these systems and methods utilize sandwich interlayers (40) to produce stronger, more homogeneous bonds than currently possible. These sandwich interlayers (40) comprise a middle bonding layer (41) sandwiched between two outer bonding layers (43). The middle bonding layer (41) comprises a different composition, and may even comprise a different form, than the outer bonding layers (43). In embodiments, these sandwich interlayers may be used to join a single crystal material to a polycrystalline material to make a gas turbine engine component, such as an integrally bladed rotor.
