Turbine Blade Blending Services
Precision Blade Blending for Maximum Turbine Engine Efficiency
Advanced Turbine Blade Blending and Repair Solutions
Advanced Turbine Support provides professional blending services designed to repair, restore, and optimize performance across a wide range of gas and industrial engine models.
Our experienced technicians perform both on-site and in-situ blending to remove damage, improve aerodynamic flow, and prevent costly engine failure.
Blending is the process of reshaping and polishing affected areas on critical components — including compressor assemblies, rotors, and vanes — to restore geometry and balance without full replacement. Each blend is engineered to meet or exceed OEM standards for safety, performance, and reliability.
The Turbine Blending Process
Our proprietary blending process combines precision inspection, manual skill, and advanced tooling to ensure consistent results.
Before each project, our technicians conduct detailed borescope inspections and mapping of all damaged areas. Once blending begins, we remove imperfections and polish the surface to restore its aerodynamic profile.
The process includes:
- Evaluation and mapping of cracks, nicks, or fatigue along the leading edge or tip
- Controlled manual blending using precision stone and radius tools to maintain original geometry
- Polishing to improve airflow and efficiency
- Final non destructive testing to confirm all damage has been removed
Advanced Turbine Support specializes in in-situ repair, allowing restoration work to be completed without disassembling the engine or compressor. This economical approach minimizes downtime and maximizes output.
In-Situ Blending Capabilities
Our in-situ capabilities allow us to restore surfaces directly within the operating machine, reducing maintenance time and preserving alignment of rotating assemblies.
We provide precision blending for compressor rotors, stators, and fan assemblies across multiple OEM engine types, including GE, Siemens, MHI, Alstom, Pratt & Whitney, and Rolls Royce.
In-situ services include:
- Blend and re-profile of compressor defects and leading-edge damage
- Surface restoration of rotor blades and stator components in early stages of the compressor
- Removal of cracks, nicks, and fatigue to mitigate further damage
- Geometry correction to maintain smooth airflow through fully exposed components
Our team performs blending on the first 7–11 stages of most compressor systems — including turbofan and aviation applications — ensuring efficiency and reliability across all operating conditions.
Engine Damage Assessment and Prevention
Minor surface damage can lead to severe engine failure if not addressed promptly.
Our inspection and blending procedures are designed to measure and correct irregularities before they become structural problems.
Through routine borescope inspections and precision repair, we help operators avoid downtime and maintain peak turbine efficiency.
Common issues our technicians address include:
- Crack formation or deformation on fan or compressor sections
- Nick and trail wear from foreign object impact
- Surface fatigue or material corrosion in high-temperature stages
- Disk and wheel erosion affecting airflow and balance
Each repair is executed with precision to maintain OEM specifications, ensuring safe operation and extending equipment lifespan.
Fan and Compressor Blending Expertise
Fan blade blending and compressor blade blending require exacting precision to maintain airflow dynamics and structural balance.
Our technicians perform surface restoration and manual blend work with advanced metrology tools to confirm all dimensions align with OEM geometry.
We specialize in:
- Polish and grind surface corrections for smooth aerodynamic finish
- Repair of titanium, steel, and composite materials
- Custom solutions for gas turbines, aircraft, and industrial machines
- Inspection and evaluation of damaged components after impact
Our goal is to maintain aerodynamic balance and flow uniformity across every stage, ensuring each machine performs at peak output.
