| Abstract | The thesis project is focus on a stage 8 commercial Gas turbine engine HPC blade tip profile build up repair or the tip sealing due to defect (rubbing incursion).
The research conducts two case studies of study 1; hand operate gas Tungsten arc
welding current and speed variation and study 2; welding torch and filler wire
coordination and welder tactics.
Whereas Hand operate GTAW DCEN phase and semi-automatic system DCEP.The arc
efficiency is based on simulation data of (Pan, 2016) and real experiment data of
(Stenbacka, 2013) past researches foundlings. According to blade clamp position, welding cycle time, blade setup time, operator convenience, blade cooling and argon capturing are considered for a new fixture design is pro-posed. The fluorescent penetrant and inspection process and radiographic inspection process carries to quality recommend of surface defects and sub surface defects.
