Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of precision casting correction, in particular to a blade crown correction machine. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous development of the aviation industry and gas turbines, blade components are increasingly used in aviation, aerospace, and steam turbine engines. Most parts used in high-temperature environments are produced using investment casting. It's common knowledge that blades are the most numerous and crucial components in a steam turbine. Blades generally consist of a root, a body, and a shroud. A cylinder contains numerous stator and rotor blades, each consisting of a single stage. Superheated steam enters the first-stage stator blades through a steam port. The stator blades guide the steam to the rotor blades, pushing the rotor and converting thermal energy into mechanical energy. This results in extremely demanding dimensional requirements for blades in gas turbine engines, making parts produced using investment casting even more challenging. In actual production, castings can deform due to casting stresses, uneven removal of the wax pattern from the mold, or problems with the ejector mechanism, leading to dimensional and positional errors. Casting deformation is typically addressed by correcting the casting, typically using tools such as a vise, a brass hammer, a workbench, and a wrench. After the deformed casting is fixed in a vise and the deformed part is corrected by hammering with a copper hammer or using a wrench, the casting is placed on a testing platform for testing, and this process is repeated until the size meets the technical requirements. However, due to the special position of the blade crown, it is often difficult to achieve the correction effect on the inner side of the blade crown by hammering or using a copper hammer, resulting in a large number of castings being scrapped due to correction reasons. In addition, the labor intensity and work difficulty of using the copper hammer or wrench correction method are high, and the production efficiency cannot be effectively improved.
