Profiling
What Does Robotic Profiling Mean for AV&R?
The action of giving a profile to the leading or trailing edge of a part. This technolgy is used for almost all new engines.
Our Solutions Work on What Types of Parts?
- Compressor blades
- Vanes
- Fan blades
- Turbine blades (for thin trailing edges)
- OGV
- MRO or new make
What Can You Achieve With One of Our Machines?
With AV&R’s robotic profiling machines, you can achieve exceptionally precise elliptical profiles, on parts like blades and vanes, perfectly aligned with your engineering specifications. These systems excel in precision and offer a remarkable up to ± 12.5-micron tolerance (± 0.5 à 1 thousandth of an inch). To reach such tight tolerances, our team has developed adaptive and closed-loop capabilities.
Concretely, What Will You Gain?
- Improve the quality and consistency of your production.
- Increase throughput.
- Reduce abrasive consumption (up to 75%) and therefore costs.
- Improve ergonomics and safety.
- Achieve the levels of precision required for the newest engine designs.
- Meet your specification requirements.
- Benefit from an automated process that works in your production environment.
- Could replace some dimensional inspections as chord length, blade thickness and edges profile.
How?
In addition to creating precision profiles, our automated machines incorporate an advanced inspection system dedicated to ensuring the utmost accuracy of your components’ leading and trailing edges.
Moreover, these machines offer the versatility to perform thinning of trailing edges, tri-blend operations, and polishing of blades, platforms, and fillet radii, providing you with comprehensive solutions for your manufacturing needs.
