A method for manufacturing a turbomachine component is disclosed, including the steps of producing, by additive manufacturing, a plurality of separate segments of the turbomachine component, having a skin surrounding an empty volume corresponding to a massive part of the turbomachine component; assembling the separate segments of the turbomachine component together forming a semi-finished component, with an empty cavity therein; filling cavity of the semi-finished component with a bulk flowable material; and densifying and solidifying the bulk flowable material in the cavity.

A tool for simultaneous local stress relief of each of a multiple of linear friction welds includes a columnar track defined along an axis, the columnar track having a helical slot; and a support structure engaged with the helical slot to translate and rotate a heat treat fixture portion along the axis.

In an inner pipe assembly step, sheet-metal-made inner-pipe divided bodies and a cast inner-pipe divided body are connected to assemble an inner pipe. In a center flange connecting step, the sheet-metal-made inner-pipe divided bodies are connected to a center flange. In an outer pipe connecting step, an outer pipe covering the inner pipe is connected to the center flange and an exhaust-air-inlet-side flange. In a masking step, at least one of: a connected portion between the sheet-metal-made inner-pipe divided bodies and the cast inner-pipe divided body; or an opening portion between the outer pipe and the inner pipe is sealed. In a cutting machining step, an inner wall surface of the cast inner-pipe divided body facing the turbine wheel is subjected to a cutting machining after the masking step.

A method for manufacturing a component of a rotary machine, the component extends in an axial direction and a radial direction vertical thereto, and has an inner channel, extending from a first end in a center of the component to a second end at a radial limiting surface of the component and which is partially closed. A blank includes the center of the component and is limited by an outer surface in the radial direction. The maximum dimension of the outer surface in the radial direction is smaller than the dimension of the limiting surface in the radial direction. A first subtractive process step is performed such that a part of the channel is manufactured by a machining process, with the part extending from the first end of the channel to the outer surface of the blank. Afterwards the channel is finished by a build-up process on the blank.

A method for manufacturing a component of a rotary machine, the component extending to an axial direction and a radial direction vertical thereto, and has an inner channel, extending from a first end of a core of a center of the component and to a second end at a radial limiting surface of the component and which is at least partially closed. A blank includes the core of the component and is limited by an outer surface in the radial direction. The blank is subtractively processed in a first subtractive process step, such that an outer contour is elaborated in the area of the outer surface, which extends in the radial direction, and a part of the channel is manufactured, which radially extends in the blank to the first end. The channel is finished by a build-up process on the blank.
