Compressor blade
Forcing pressure
The aero engine compressors consists of thousands of blades, each between 25 – 200 mm. As modern compressor blade designs create thinner and more twisted airfoils, the bar for precision continues to rise.
Even the tiniest imperfection on the surface or a variation in the profile of a compressor blade or vane can adversely effect air flow, impair blade performance and lower engine efficiency. Global production of these parts is in millions per year, as is the number returning for MRO, so having the right measurement and inspection solutions is critical to a smooth production process.
Quality Gates along the Compressor Blade Production Process
Building in quality is a vital part of the compressor blade manufacturing process. With millions of parts in production each year each with very short cycle times, there could soon be a lot of non-conformance without careful montioring in place within your process. The ZEISS quality solutions enable our aerospace customers to put the right piece of equipment on the shopfloor at the point of manufacture and provide real time feedback with or software tools where customers need it most.
