  • Patent number: 7370506
    Abstract: A forging die includes on one face, a half-imprint of a part to be forged such as a turbine engine blade. The die also includes on the face, a device for forming a marking along two directions relatively to which the position of the imprint is defined, the device including two pads protruding relatively to the face and each including two notches defining the two directions. This device preferably includes two pads machined on the die at the same time as the imprint, and each including two notches in the form of a cross.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20050247101
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a forging die including on one face, a half-imprint of a part to be forged such as a turbine engine blade. The die is characterized by the fact that it includes on said face, a means forming a marking along two directions relatively to which the position of said imprint is defined, said means consisting of two pads protruding relatively to said face and each including two notches defining said two directions. This means preferably consists of two pads machined on the die at the same time as the imprint, and each including two notches in the form of a cross. The invention thus allows visual checking of the positioning of the imprints and of the dies on the platens of the press.

  • Publication number: 20050086783
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a precision-forging parts manufacturing process including the manufacture and development of a first forging tooling equipment (20, 30), the forging of the parts with said tooling equipment, whereas the parts have a determined excessive thickness, and their finishing treatment, The method is characterised in that it also includes the realisation of a digital model of the surface of the first tooling equipment, the forging of parts, the rehabilitation of the tooling equipment or the manufacture of new tooling equipment from the digital model, after forging a determined number of parts. In particular, the parts are subjected to a finishing treatment directly after forging, said treatment including mechanic polishing. The invention applies to the forging of blades for turbo machines.
