The outlook for application of pulse electrochemical machining in gas turbine engine production

Abstract

Analysis of trends of gas turbine engines(GTE) design improvement is carried out. Problems of conventional technologies are noted. Areas of efficient application of pulse electrochemical machining (pECM) in GTE production are defined. Modern technological level and trends of development of pECM are shown. Samples of new technological processes of pECM in production parts of GTE made of new materials are given.
