On May 25, 2023, a technical meeting was held at the JSC «Titanium Institute» with specialists from JSC «MOTOR SICH» and «MULTIFLEX LLC».
Issues discussed:
1. Testing and implementation of a resource-saving technology for producing gas turbine engine blades from serial titanium powders and titanium alloys produced by JSC «Titanium Institute».
2. Testing of an innovative technology for the production of GTE blades from a new generation material – an alloy based on aluminum-titanium.
3. The introduction of spherical titanium powders produced by «MULTIFLEX LLC» for the manufacture of disks.
4. Creation of a new Technical Committee for Standardization “Additive Technologies”.
Decided: JSC «MOTOR SICH» to develop an action plan to determine the properties of the material of blades from serial powders of titanium and titanium alloys produced by JSC «Titanium Institute» on samples simulating industrial production and to test the shaping technology for producing blades for gas turbine engines. After analyzing the test results, perform economic calculations of the feasibility of import substitution of deformed titanium semi-finished products.
A new generation material, aluminum-titanium alloy, may be of interest as a raw material for the manufacture of 4++ and 5 generation GTE blades. JSC «Titanium Institute» will give JSC «MOTOR SICH» the test reports of the mechanical properties of the material and machined samples for tensile testing.
