The invention discloses a method for removing
ceramic layers of a
thermal barrier coating. The method includes the steps that (1) a
turbine working blade is clamped on a tool fixture; (2) a
nozzle is mounted in a spray gun; (3) under the condition of soft limiting control, the spray gun with the
nozzle is slowly moved to the current surface, where one
ceramic layer is to be removed, of the
turbine working blade, and the target distance is kept; (4) an
eddy current pulse
water jet switch is turned on, and the
nozzle is made to reciprocate line by line in the axial direction of the
turbine working blade; (5) after the
ceramic layer on the current surface of the turbine working blade is completely removed, the blade is rotated by 180 degrees through a rotating shaft on the tool fixture; and (6) the step (3) and the step (4) are conducted to remove the ceramic layer on the other face. When the method is used for removing the ceramic
layers, the ceramic
layers are continuously stripped off layer by layer, a
metal bottom layer is not damaged, the
metal bottom layer does not need to be coated supplementarily, the procedures are simple, and re-
coating of the ceramic layers is facilitated; and compared with a traditional mechanical
sand blasting method, process parameters are accurately controlled in the method, and product quality consistency is high.
