AI Technical Summary
The production of blisks is time-consuming due to the complex geometry of blade profiles, requiring extensive rough-machining with side or end milling cutters and subsequent use of form milling cutters, which complicates programming and increases material fatigue.
Employing a bell-type countersink for rough-machining that follows a 3-axial or 5-axial linear path, allowing for better alignment with the blade profiles and reducing the need for form milling, while using a 5-axial movement for finishing to stabilize the blade profiles and minimize material stress.
Significantly reduces the time required for rough-machining and stabilizes the blade profiles during machining, minimizing material fatigue and simplifying the production process.
