  • Publication number: 20240059032
    Abstract: A device for moulding at least one bladed part of a turbine engine, including a base; a mould formed from a plurality of parts nested inside one another, this mould being applied to the base. A first seal is mounted between the mould and the base; and a bell is mounted on the mould and around the mould, this bell being applied to the base. A second seal is mounted between the bell and the base, this bell being configured to be held tight against the base and having interior surfaces engaging by wedge effect with complementary exterior surfaces of the mould in order to apply a clamping force on the parts of this mould.
