Abstract:
A surface having specially formed recesses and component is provided. The component has a layer with a surface, having elongate recesses, which have a longitudinal direction, wherein the recesses are arranged at an angle which differs considerably from 0°, in particular 90°+/−20°, with respect to a direction of overflow over the surface, and are at least partially widened transversely to the longitudinal direction thereof in the region of the surface with respect to the base of the recess, in which the recess is widened proceeding from the base only above a certain height within the recess, and in particular the recess has a constant width before it, in which the recess does not extend through the entire thickness of the layer.
Abstract:
A casting mold for a metal melt is provided. By coating a core of a casting mold, the core may be mechanically stabilized and an inner coating of the component to be cast may be obtained, wherein the coating preferably serves as an anti-corrosion layer. A method for producing a cast part using the casting mold is also provided.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for repairing components comprising a base material with an oriented microstructure, wherein the repair point comprises a correspondingly oriented microstructure as the surrounding base material. According to the inventive method, solder is applied in the region of a point which is to be repaired and is soldered to the component by means of a heating effect produced by a device. A temperature gradient, i.e., approximately a temperature characteristic, is produced during the heating effect, said temperature characteristic ranging from a high to a low temperature in the region of the point which is to be repaired.
Abstract:
In one aspect, a repair method for repairing components comprising a base material with a directed microstructure is provided. The repair is performed in such a way that the repaired location correspondingly has a directed microstructure like the surrounding base material. A solder is applied in the region of a location to be repaired and is soldered to the component via heat exposure, a temperature gradient, i.e., for instance a temperature variation from a higher temperature to a lower temperature, is thereby produced in the region of the location to be repaired.
Abstract:
Heat treatment of alloys having elements for improving grain boundary strength is disclosed. Components directly after castings often reveal low or no transverse grain boundary strength, so that cracks do appear and decrease the yield rate. The provided measures do not lead to low transverse grain boundary strength but maintains efficient grain boundary strength, so that the yield rate of components without cracks is increased.
Abstract:
A method for producing a protective layer for a rotor blade of a turbomachine is proposed. The rotor blade has a wear cap wall that in relation to the axis of the turbomachine protrudes radially towards the exterior of the turbomachine beyond a body of the rotor blade. The method enables the entire rotor blade to have a comparatively long service life and at the same time allows the wear cap wall to be thermally insulated in an especially simple manner. For the purpose, a profile producing a positive fit effective in the radial direction is inserted in a radially located region of the wear cap wall, a slip containing metal powder and/or a ceramic slip is applied to the region and the slip in sintered.
Abstract:
A liner for a die body is presented. The liner includes a flexible base material characterized in that reinforcements with lower stretchability compared to the base material are bonded along the extent of the liner. A tool which includes the liner is also provided. The reinforcements may include glass fibers or carbon fibers.
Abstract:
A method of producing a component wherein a directionally solidified columnar grained cast superalloy material is heat treated such that a secondary phase of the alloy is only partly solved, thereby providing improved transverse stress rupture strength compared to fully solved alloys.
Abstract:
A process for optimizing a core die is provided. By iteratively modifying the ceramic core without changing the core die, it is possible to ascertain an optimum core without modifying the core die every time. In a last step, an optimum core die is produced using the optimum ceramic core.
Abstract:
A method for producing a pattern for the precision-cast representation of a component having a cavity is provided. In the method wherein the component is a turbine component having a cavity, the finished pattern comprises a core and an outer contour pattern, the outer contour pattern at least partially surrounds the core and at least partially defines the outer contour of the turbine component. The core is produced from a curable core material, which cures during the course of the method, and the outer contour pattern is produced from a material which can be burned or melted out. In this case, first the outer contour pattern is produced with a cavity corresponding to the cavity of the turbine component and subsequently the curable core material is filled into the cavity and cured to produce the core.
