Abstract: An additive manufacturing system includes an additive manufacturing unit that includes a housing for additively processing a powder material along a build direction into a build assembly. The additive manufacturing system further includes a rotator assembly for rotating the build assembly within the housing. The rotator assembly includes a frame including a first frame arm and a second frame arm and a carriage rotatably coupled to the first frame arm and to the second frame arm. The carriage includes at least one coupling mechanism for removably coupling the carriage to the build assembly. The rotator assembly further includes a drive assembly coupled to the carriage for selectively rotating the carriage about a rotational axis that is generally perpendicular to the build direction.

Abstract: A system for inspecting, cleaning, and/or repairing one or more blades attached to a rotor of a gas turbine engine. The system includes a track disposed adjacent to the rotor, a mechanical arm moveable along the track, a number of tools attachable to the mechanical arm, and a controller configured to control a position of at least one of the tools that is attached to the mechanical arm about the one or more blades.

Abstract: A device for cleaning blades in a turbomachine is disclosed. The device may include a frame, a cleaning jaw pivotably attached to the frame, opposing cleaning pads attached to a distal end of the cleaning jaw, a cleaning pad actuator attached to the frame for actuating the opposing cleaning pads, and at least one handle attached to the frame.
