  • Patent number: 10012976
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a turbine engine blade including an airfoil with a profile defined by a theoretical digital model, the method including: manufacturing a blank having a thickened portion along a trailing edge of the airfoil relative to the theoretical profile; removing the thickened portion by adaptive machining, including: positioning the blank in a reference frame; acquiring, by probing at a predetermined number of points on a first surface of the blank along the trailing edge, positions of the points in the reference frame; determining differences, in one direction, in position from corresponding points of the theoretical model; producing machining grids on the blank surface, peaks of the grids determined from the points; determining an amount of material to be removed from the surface of the grids, based on the position of the points relative to the peaks and the deviations in position; and machining the airfoil.

  • Publication number: 20150125289
    Abstract: A part of a turbomachine distributor, including an outer platform, an inner platform, at least one blade interspaced circumferentially about a longitudinal axis of the part, radial ends of the at least one blade being respectively fixed to the inner platform and to the outer platform, and a fastening element extending from the outer platform, for fastening the part to a casing of the turbomachine. The fastening element includes, on ends thereof arranged on either side of the longitudinal axis, two separate fastening tabs for fastening the part to the casing, the cumulated sum of lengths of the two fastening tabs in relation to length of the fastening element according to a transverse axis of the part being between 25% and 35%.
