EQUIPMENT COMPRISING A ROTATABLE CRADLE AND INTENDED FOR COATING THE AIRFOIL OF A TURBINE BLADE IN ORDER TO MACHINE THE ROOT

摘要

The invention relates to equipment for coating the airfoil of a turbine blade of a turbine engine in a coating block, comprising a base (11) on which a molding block (12) is positioned for the flow of the coating metal, said molding block comprising a cavity defining a reference plane on the block for positioning same in space, wherein said base (11) also has a cradle (13) for supporting the blade via six bearing points defining a so-called orientation plane representative of the angular position of the airfoil relative to the root of the blade, characterized in that the cradle (13) is rotatably movable relative to said base (11) about an axis oriented so as to be substantially parallel to the direction of the leading edge of the blade, so as to enable a modification in the angle formed between said reference and orientation planes.
