The ADvanced MAnufacturing Processes for Gas-Engine Turbine Components (or ADMAP-GAS) Project is a response to the high market demand for gas turbines in the aircraft industry for the need for more efficient, reliable and flexible manufacturing technologies for the production of turbine components. ADMAP-GAS will evaluate Water Jet Cutting (WJC) and High Speed Wire Electro Discharge Machining (High Speed Wire-EDM) as alternatives to broaching, a machining operation known to experience problems with high tool wear resulting in high maintenance costs, disruption of the production process and inflexibility with regard to changes in the workpiece geometry. ADMAP-GAS is a collaborative project of the Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) of the European Commission (EC). The FP7 is the EC's chief instrument for funding research over the period 2007 to 2013 [1]. ADMAP-GAS addresses the relevance to the call by the “development of techniques for increased flexible tooling” for the manufacture of gas turbine components.
