ABSTRACT
CONCLUSIONS
The production of a warm compacted, 1100 gram multi-level P/M
turbine hub has produced a component with an overall as-sintered
density of approximately 7.25 g/cm3 utilizing conventional
sintering temperature. Higher density levels were achieved in the
critically stressed ID regions of the part. In combining the
benefits of warm compaction technology with a high performance
material system, the need for induction hardening of the ID
spline was eliminated. These advantages allowed a simplified
manufacturing process and an overall part cost reduction.
