Keystone is developing multiple specialized component repair
methods for critical aerospace hardware. The reconstruction
repair of damaged blades on integrally bladed rotors (IBRs)
is possible with the combined innovation of high-quality
metal deposition and the dynamic conversion of cast
microstructures to fine grain structure for wrought-like
mechanical properties.
Weld rejuvenation using solid-state microstructure conversion has proven
to be an effective repair method for highly stresses components.
Leading edge and tip reconstruction of industrial gas turbine
blades is possible in hard-to-weld alloys using Keystone metal
deposition methods.
The dimensional reconstruction and repair of specialized steel
tooling for composite lay-up is a prime application of metal
deposition methods developed by Keystone.
