  • Spun metal form used to manufacture dual alloy turbine wheel
    Patent number: 7516526
    Abstract: A spun metal form used to manufacture a dual alloy turbine wheel. The spun metal form prevents braze alloy contamination of the hub/casting interface by relocating the braze joint away from the interface. The spun metal form allows for the re-working of components after failed vacuum brazing and increases the time to failure of dual alloy turbine wheels.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 3, 2004
    Date of Patent: April 14, 2009
    Assignee: Honeywell International Inc.
    Inventors: Derek A. Rice, Venkatesh S. Krishnan, David R. Waldman, Gary G. Capek, Devinder N. Katariya
