Integrated manufacturing of REciclable multi-material COmposites for the TRANSport sector
A GUIDE VANE MADE OF COMPOSITE MATERIAL FOR A GAS TURBINE ENGINE, AND IT'S METHOD OF FABRICATION
A guide vane for a gas turbine engine, the guide vane including an airfoil made of composite material having fiber reinforcement densified by a matrix, the fiber reinforcement being obtained from pre-impregnated long fibers agglomerated in the form of a mat, the airfoil being provided at least on a leading edge with a reinforcing strip, the reinforcing strip being made from a single strip of unidirectional fabric or of textile, or by stacking a plurality of pre-impregnated plies of unidirectional fabric or of textile made of carbon fibers or of glass fibers, and at least one platform positioned at a radial end of the airfoil, the platform being made of composite material having fiber reinforcement densified by a matrix, the fiber reinforcement being obtained from pre-impregnated long fibers.
