Method for producing cavities for a turbomachine disk

1. A method for producing a plurality of cavities in a turbomachine disk, said cavities extending between a first lateral surface and a second lateral surface of the turbomachine disk, said first lateral surface and second lateral surface extending orthogonally to an axis of the disk, the method comprising:

positioning a ring facing the first lateral surface so as to centre the ring on the axis of the disk, said ring comprising an inner periphery including a plurality of protrusions complementary in shape to the cavities that are to be produced;

circulating an electrolyte close to the protrusions on the ring;

activating a first translational movement of the ring along the axis of the disk towards the second lateral surface;

activating a rotation of the disk about the axis of the disk;

generating an electric current pulse in the electrolyte when the ring is substantially at the first lateral surface, said pulse resulting in the ionic dissolution of the disk at the protrusions on the ring;

reducing the speed of rotation to a first reduced speed, when the ring is at the first lateral surface, for a first period of time, the first period of time and the first reduced speed being chosen as a function of a desired filleting, and

stopping the first translation of the ring when the ring has been moved in translation beyond the second lateral surface.

2. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

activating a second translational movement of the ring along the axis of the disk towards the first lateral surface.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the first reduced speed is zero.

4. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

reducing the speed of rotation to a second reduced speed, when the ring is substantially at the second lateral surface, for a second period of time.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the second reduced speed is zero.
