Next Generation Low Pressure Turbine airfoils by ALM

 

The development of new materials joined with the extensive use of new Additive manufacturing technologies are fundamentals enablers to develop high technology components such as LPT blades that will be installed on the next generation engines, characterized by reduced weight, increased reliability and performance. The main objective of this call is to develop and assess alloys by Powder Bed Additive process to be applied on Next Generation Low Pressure Turbine airfoils production. The definition of the chemical composition along with the optimization of the Additive process and heat treatment are the key activities that will be performed in order to obtain the optimal mechanical properties and producibility. Please refer to the full topic descriptions document published in this call.
