Abstract:
The invention provides an injection mold core (100) for making a composite material part having a closed box, the core being in the shape of a wedge that is to be inserted inside a closed box (12) of at least one fiber preform into which a matrix-precursor fluid is to be injected, the core presenting both an opening right section (106) through which the core is to be unmolded from the box of the preform after the matrix has set, and also a maximum right section (108) of greater size than the opening right section, the core comprising at least three distinct elements (110, 112, 114) that are assembled together, each core element presenting a maximum right section of size that is smaller than the opening section.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a turbine-engine blade from a preform made from polymerized composite material in a mold comprising a bottom part and a top part, comprising at least one closure step during which the top part of said mold is attached to the bottom part of the mold containing the preform, wherein it comprises, prior to said closure step, at least one insertion substep during which a first end of an immobilization element is inserted in a bottom part of the preform in a substantially transverse direction, and a positioning substep during which a second, opposite end of said element is disposed in a complementary reception cavity emerging in the bottom part of the mold.
