Abstract: A high temperature brazing fixture and method of manufacture for a gas turbine component made of a superalloy is disclosed herein. The high temperature brazing fixture includes a first and second frame member, a support member, and positioning member, all of which are made from the superalloy and fastened together using tab and tab lock couplings. The support member is configured to interface with and support the gas turbine engine component, and the positioning member is configured to interface with and position at least a first location of or hold a first dimension of the gas turbine component.

Abstract: A jig is used for positioning a retaining ring that retains a seal ring in an inner periphery of a blade ring relative to the blade ring that constitutes a gas passage of a turbine. The jig includes a base that determines a measurement point on the blade ring, a shaft arranged displaceably relative to the base, a probe that is fixed to the shaft and determines a measurement point on the retaining ring, and a measuring unit that is arranged in the base and measures a displacement amount of the shaft relative to the base.
