General

This TASK gives the procedure to repair surface damage on the HP Compressor Stage 7 Rotor Blade by material removal.

This repair must only be done when the instruction to do so is given in the relevant inspection procedures (identified by the applicable part number) located in section 72-41-15.

You can mix a scallop and edge dressing to a given HP Compressor Stage 7 Rotor Blade, if the maximum limit for any one of these is not exceeded.

Rotor blades must be repaired as soon as damage or wear is monitored, to get back HP compressor efficiency and extend the rotor blade life.

Material removal from the HP Compressor Stage 7 Rotor Blade airfoil fillet radius is not permitted.

When the depth of the dressed material is more than 0.002 in. (0.05 mm) it is necessary to glass bead peen the HP Compressor Stage 7 Rotor Blade to restore the airfoil surface condition, refer to Repair, VRS6150 TASK 72-41-15-300-040 (REPAIR-040).

Where reference is made to a SUBTASK within a TASK in the form "TASK, SUBTASK" the operator must read and apply the complete TASK. The SUBTASK is listed only when the TASK gives options for the processing of the component. The specified SUBTASK instructs what option must be used during application of the TASK for the successful completion of the repair scheme VRS6013.

The practices and processes referred to in the procedure by the TASK/SUBTASK number are in the SPM.

      CAUTION

      TITANIUM COMPONENT - AVOID BUILD UP OF HEAT BY APPLYING ONLY GENTLE PRESSURE AND KEEPING THE TOOL SPEED AS LOW AS POSSIBLE. USE TECHNIQUES WHICH ALLOW FOR PROGRESSIVE WEAR OF THE DRESSING MEDIA TO PRESENT A CONTINUALLY FRESH CUTTING SURFACE TO THE WORK PIECE.

      CAUTION

      TITANIUM COMPONENT - DO NOT DWELL ON ONE AREA OF THE COMPONENT.

      CAUTION
