METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A BLADE PREFORM, A BLADE AND A NOZZLE SEGMENT BY SELECTIVE POWDER-BED FUSION

摘要

A method of fabricating an airfoil preform for a turbine engine by selective melting on a bed of powder, the preform including an airfoil and a removable support secured to the airfoil, the airfoil being fabricated layer by layer from a first edge to a second edge of the airfoil, the method including fabricating the removable support and the airfoil, the removable support being for securing to a fabrication platform and to a portion of a face of the airfoil situated near the first edge and facing the fabrication platform. The face of the airfoil facing the fabrication platform includes a flat extending away from the face, the flat being present over a portion of the face that is situated outside the first edge, the support being secured to the flat or both to the flat and to the portion of the face that is situated outside the first edge.
