A Study of Femtosecond Laser Machining Technology Applied in Air-Film Holes on Turbine Blades

摘要

Femtosecond laser with the features of ultrashort pulse duration and ultrahigh peak power can achieve "cold" machining. The recast layer and micro-cracks of the hole wall can be ruduced effectively by applying femtosecond laser in processing air-film holes on turbine blades, and the machining accuracy and consistency of the hole shape will increase. In this paper, the high-speed rotating femtosecond laser beam is adopted in several currently used turbine blade materials for air-film holes machining, and high quality air-film holes without hole wall recast layer and micro-cracks are processed through a large number of experiments to optimize machining technology and technological parameter.
