Disclosed are methods of processing an object (2), the object (2) being made of a metal or an alloy, the object (2) having a plurality of open cavities (10), the method comprising: performing a sealing process on the object (2) to seal the openings of the open cavities (10), thereby forming a plurality of closed cavities (8); and reducing the sizes of the closed cavities (8) by performing a consolidation process on the object (2) having the closed cavities (8).Sealing process may comprise shot peening or coating the object (2). A consolidation process may comprise a hot isostatic pressing process. The sizes of the closed cavities (8) may be reduced until the closed cavities (8) are no longer present in the object (2). |
