Product Overview
The AeroForge-CB45 Compact Compressor Blade is a high-performance, precision-forged titanium airfoil engineered for next-generation aerospace and industrial gas turbine applications. Designed for demanding rotational environments, this titanium compressor blade leverages the exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and thermal stability of Ti-6Al-4V (ASTM B348 Grade 5) to deliver superior aerodynamic efficiency in constrained spaces. Its compact airfoil geometry—optimized via computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and validated through modal analysis—ensures minimal tip clearance loss, reduced stage count, and enhanced system-level power density. As part of AeroForge’s certified custom forging portfolio, the CB45 exemplifies advanced metallurgical control, tight dimensional repeatability, and full traceability from billet to finished blade.
Key Features
- Precision near-net-shape forging with minimal post-machining requirements
- Low-weight airfoil profile reducing rotor inertia and improving transient response
- Full compliance with ASTM B348 Grade 5 specifications for Ti-6Al-4V chemistry and microstructure
- Integrated root geometry (dovetail or fir-tree, customizable per OEM spec) for secure disk retention
- Surface-treated for fatigue resistance: shot-peened leading edge and controlled finish on pressure/suction surfaces
- 100% NDT inspected (UT + fluorescent penetrant) with full material certification (MTR) and heat lot traceability
