Integrated manufacturing of REciclable multi-material COmposites for the TRANSport sector
FITTED PLATFORM FOR A TURBINE ENGINE FAN, AND A METHOD OF FABRICATING IT
The invention provides a fitted platform (1) for positioning between two adjacent blades of an aviation turbine engine fan, said platform comprising a flow passage wall (10) made of composite material having a central portion (16) and first and second margins (18) each extending in a longitudinal direction of said wall, each margin extending over a determined distance (D) from the central portion (16) in a transverse direction of said wall, said flow passage wall comprising fiber reinforcement densified by a matrix, the platform being characterized in that the fiber reinforcement present in the central portion (16) presents three-dimensional weaving, and in that the fiber reinforcement present in the first and second margins (18) presents two-dimensional weaving, at least in part. The invention also provides a fan module, a turbine engine, and a method of fabricating such a platform.
