Abstract

A method for producing turbine rotor blades or the base bodies thereof includes a) providing the base body, which has, following one another along a longitudinal axis, a blade root, a blade platform and a blade airfoil, b) sensing a value of at least one parameter of the base body, at least one of the parameters representing a vibrational property of the base body, c) comparing the sensed value with a predetermined target interval, d) if the sensed value lies outside the target interval, reducing the mass of the base body, wherein the reduction of the mass takes place at the blade root and/or on the blade platform by introducing at least one recess and/or by reducing a dimension below the corresponding target value.

Claims (13)

1. A method for producing a base body or a turbine rotor blade, comprising at least the successive steps of

a) providing the base body, which comprises, following one another along a longitudinal axis, a blade root, a blade platform and a blade airfoil,

b) sensing a value of at least one parameter of the base body, at least one of the parameters representing a vibrational property of the base body,

c) comparing the sensed value with a predetermined target interval,

d) if the sensed value lies outside the target interval, reducing the mass of the base body,

wherein the reduction of the mass takes place at the blade root by introducing at least one recess and/or by reducing a dimension below the corresponding target value.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 ,

in which the reduction of the mass takes place at a region or regions of the blade root, and wherein the region concerned or the regions concerned lies or lie outside those regions of the base body that can be flowed over by a hot gas.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 ,

in which, before carrying out step b), at least most of the dimensions of the base body are brought to their target size.

4. A rotor turbine ring for a rotor of an axially flowed-through turbine, comprising:

a number of turbine rotor blades,

wherein the base bodies of which are produced by a method as claimed in claim 1 .
