The essential machining operations for producing aerospace turbine discs include power skiving, fir tree machining with form cutters, coupling machining, seal fin turning and mechanized edge profiling. All those operations demand exceptionally tight tolerances and the generation of specific surface finishes, while minimizing heat generation that affects the integrity of the base material.
In this demo, watch how we tackle the challenge of machining difficult materials using the latest strategies and Seco tooling. Our 5-axis mill-turn machine boasts capabilities in power skiving and multi-axis turning.
The work holding system has been meticulously designed to safeguard critical features like the seal fins and incorporate an expanding mandrel with external splines that perfectly match and securely grip the internal splines on the component, ensuring extreme stability throughout the machining process.
