Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé pour lisser la surface d'une pale (1) de turbine à gaz, notamment pourvue d'une couche anticorrosion à base de MCrAlY. La surface (14) de la pale (1) de turbine à gaz est lissée à l'aide d'un processus d'entraînement-abrasion, en imprimant notamment un mouvement multiaxial. Un premier récipient annulaire (23) est rempli d'un produit abrasif liquide (27). Un second récipient (25), situé à côté du premier récipient (23), est rempli d'un second produit abrasif liquide (29). Ledit produit abrasif (27) contient des corps abrasifs de type émulsion, de taille moyenne définie. Le second produit abrasif (29) contient des seconds corps abrasifs de type émulsion, de taille moyenne inférieure à celle des corps abrasifs du produit abrasif (27). Un bras pivotant (31), monté entre et au-dessus desdits récipients (23, 25), peut pivoter dans une direction de pivotement (32). Un dispositif d'entraînement (33) est monté sur ce bras pivotant (31). Ce dispositif d'entraînement (33) fait passer une pale (1) de turbine à gaz dans le produit abrasif (27), ladite pale se trouvant sur un bras de support (41). Une rotation de ce dispositif d'entraînement (33) définit ainsi un premier axe (35) pour le mouvement de la pale (1) de turbine à gaz. Un mouvement de bascule du bras de support (41) définit un deuxième axe (37). Une rotation du bras de support (41) définit un troisième axe (39) pour le mouvement de la pale (1) de turbine à gaz.

In order to obtain an aluminium-like and translucent material, according to prior art glass has aluminium vapour deposited onto the front surface, and a diode matrix display is hidden behind this translucent material while inactive, whereas it becomes visible when lit. In order to avoid the use of glass and to make the metal surface and the display surface indistinguishable from each other under all lighting conditions, the surface is made out of the piece of material constituting the surrounding parts. A cavity is formed from behind, and the bottom of said cavity is made very thin and hence translucent by etching or a similar material removing process. Oxide layers support this translucent layer, and an internal support is provided in the cavity, said support also carrying the sources of light.
