ABSTRACT:
A procedure is described for the repair of gas turbine engine turbine components which involves the repair of cracks and other defects and the replacement of worn or eroded material followed by the laser melting of a thin layer of metal on the surface of the component in those areas requiring reconfiguration to return to the original dimensions. The reconfiguration by laser melting is also useful for new articles which are out of tolerance, and generally for shaping objects from metal sheet or plate.
