A method of manufacturing a bladed disc from a fiber reinforced composite material which comprises injecting a mixture of short fibers and a matrix material into a dividable die so configured as to define the form of a disc having integral radially extending aerofoil blades. The mixture is injected into the die at such a location that the short fibers within the aerofoil-defining portions of the die are radially aligned. The die contains two support rings which are coaxially disposed within the bladed disc after injection molding so as to provide radial support for the aerofoil blades of the thus formed bladed disc. The method may be modified to provide the bladed disc with an integral shroud. |
