MANUFACTURING OF
COMPRESSOR BLADE
MEDHA COLLEGE OF
ENGINEERING
AIM:
The main aim of this project is to know about the
processes involved in the manufacturing of the
compressor blade.
compressor blades are used in the propulsive system of an
aircraft, thermal power stations and hydro-electric power
stations.
USED:
INTRODUCTION :
A Compressor is a rotary mechanical device that
extracts energy from a fluid flow and converts it into
useful work. A Compressor is a turbo machine with at
least one moving part called a rotor assembly, which is a
shaft or drum with blades attached. Moving fluid acts on
the blades so that they move and impart rotational energy
to the rotor.

Raw Material:
The raw material is the main source for the
manufacturing of Compressor blade
The raw material used in the manufacturing of
Compressor blade is stainless steel.
Specifications:
The raw material cross-section is of
Width= 170mm
Height= 90mm
MAIN PROCESS INVOLED:
• The design of the product,
• The selection of raw materials and
• The sequence of process through which the product will be
manufactured.
WHY UNCONVENTIONAL MACHINING COME INTO EXIST:
• The hardness and strength of the material is very
high(typically above 400HB) or the material is too brittle.
• The work piece is too flexible, slender, or delicate to
withstand the cutting or grinding forces, or the parts are difficult to
fixture that is, to clamp in work holding devices.
• The shape of the part is complex, including such
features as internal and external profiles or small
diameter holes in fuel injection nozzles.
• Surface finish and dimensional tolerance
requirements are more rigorous than those obtained by
other processes.
• Temperature rise and residual stresses in the work
piece are not desirable or acceptable.

Cutting:
Since the raw material is huge in length, it can
not be directly taken to the process of
manufacturing. So it is parted into number of
pieces according to the blade profile requirement.
The work piece required to obtain blade profile is
of the following dimensions.
Length= 265mm
Width = 150mm
Height= 90mm
•After hacksaw cutting operation
Hacksaw Cutting Machine:
The hacksaw machine is used for cutting the raw material. The
work piece is held on the hacksaw machine with the help of chain
pulley supported by three vertical members.

Milling:
A milling machine is a machine tool used to machine solid
materials. Milling machines are often classed in two basic forms
•Horizontal milling machine,
•Vertical milling machine, which refers to the orientation of the
main spindle.
Surface Grinding:
Surface grinding is used to produce a smooth finish
on flat surfaces. It is a widely Used abrasive machining
process in which a spinning wheel covered in rough
particles (grinding wheel) cuts chips of metallic or non-
metallic substance from a work piece, making a face of it
flat or smooth.
Types of surface grinders:
Horizontal-Spindle (peripheral) surface grinders:
The periphery (flat edge) of the wheel is in contact with
the work piece, producing the flat surface.
Vertical-Spindle (wheel-face) grinders: The face of a
wheel (cup, cylinder, disc, or segmental wheel) is used
on the flat surface.
Disc grinders and double-disc grinders: Disc
grinding is similar to surface grinding, but with a larger
contact area between disc and work piece.
Material After Grinding
CNC Machining:
(COMPUTERISED NUMERICAL CONTROLLED MACHINE)
CNC refers to the automation of machine tools that are operated
by preprogrammed commands encoded on a storage medium.
2) COLLETS:
Collets are used for holding the tool in the adaptor. Collets are
flexible to allow tools of different diameters to fit in to it. Collets are
characterized by the range of diameters which can be hold by using
the collets. They contain different slots as shown in figure to provide
a secure positioning of cutter in it . They also capable of absorbing
the vibrations produced during the machining.
3) FIXTURES:
Fixtures are used to hold the specimen during operation. Once
the specimen has fixed into the fixture it won’t be removed till the
end of the operation. Fixtures can be of various shapes it has to be
ensured that it can hold the specimen carefully till the end of the
operation. It’s shape varies with the shape of the specimen to be
fixed and the operating procedure.
Quality Control:
Visual Inspection
In visual inspection we check the length, thickness and width of
the given specimen at the corresponding sections. We need to check
the given specimen, whether it will meet the requirements of our
design or not. By using the venire calipers we calculate the basic
dimensions of the specimen.
OBJECTS USED IN VISUAL INSPECTION:
• Height Gauge:
It is used to measure the height of the specimen from the datum
surface and to measure the groove and slots. To check the depth of
the slot and the height of the slot by this measuring gauge. The
readings of the height are shown digitally on the display arranged
on the gauge.
Magnetic V-block:
The specimen is placed on the V-block and then required measurements
are taken, marking the specimen is also done in this process
Blade measuring gauge:
This apparatus is used to measure the final shape of the blade profile
Cleaning and Packing:
After the completion of the final inspection, the Compressor blade is
proceeded into the next stage of cleaning. In cleaning the blade is rinsed with the
water and the water is wiped with the cotton cloth.
Polishing:
ROUGH POLISHING: Rough polishing includes removal of any irregular shapes
from the surface of the profile. We use ball cutter for rough machining
CONCLUSION
The processes involved in the manufacturing of
the Compressor blade was studied.
These blades are responsible for extracting
energy from the high temperature and high pressure
gas produced by the combustor.
As these blades work mostly at high
temperatures and pressures, they were designed to
withstand high stresses and loads.
compressor blades are used in the propulsive system
of an aircraft, thermal power stations and hydro-electric
power stations.
