ICTM Collaborative R&D 2022

What about the machinability of future turbomachinery alloys and how to improve it?

Challenge and Motivation

• Future engine programs require higher heat resistant materials for turbine components.
• Lack of process knowledge regarding cutting of new materials superior IN718 (like e.g. Rene 65, AD730, γ-TiAl).

Objective

• Evaluation of machinability criteria.
• Derivation of recommendations for machining of the investigated “future material”.
