A method for producing a machining segment for a machining tool includes producing a green body by placing first hard material particles in respective depressions of a first press punch and applying a first matrix material to the placed first hard material particles. The green body is compacted by pressure between the first press punch, which forms an upper side of the machining segment, and a second press punch, which forms an underside of the machining segment, to form a compact body. The compact body is processed by temperature or by infiltration to produce the machining segment.

A seal segment assembly for a turbomachine, in particular a gas turbine, including a first seal carrier and a second seal carrier, that are adjacently disposed in the circumferential direction, the first seal carrier having a first carrier base and at least one first sealing member that is joined to the first carrier base, and the second seal carrier having a second carrier base and at least one second sealing member that is joined to the second carrier base, the first sealing member and the second sealing member being formed by a plurality of cavities, that are adjacently disposed in the circumferential direction and in the axial direction, in particular evenly spaced, the cavities extending in the radial direction from the particular carrier base. The first carrier base and the second carrier base are intercouplable or are intercoupled in the circumferential direction by a mating connection assembly.

A sintered bearing includes, on an inner peripheral surface, a cylindrical portion and a one-side increased-diameter portion, which are provided so as to be continuous in the axial direction. An end portion of one side in the axial direction of the cylindrical portion and an end portion of another side in the axial direction of the increased-diameter portion coincide, and the cylindrical portion and the increased-diameter portion are molded by performing sizing on a sintered compact having a tubular shape, which is introduced into a die.

A method includes forming a fluid conduit inside a heat shield in an additive manufacturing process, wherein a fluid nozzle is defined at a downstream end of the fluid conduit, and wherein the heat shield is formed about the fluid nozzle. The method includes removing powder from an interior passage of the fluid conduit and fluid nozzle and from an insulation gap defined between the heat shield and the fluid conduit and fluid nozzle. The method includes separating the heat shield, fluid conduit, and fluid nozzle from the build platform. The method includes shifting the fluid conduit and fluid nozzle to a shifted position relative to the heat shield, and securing the fluid conduit and fluid nozzle to the heat shield in the shifted position.
