TTL
have provided ‘Adaptive Machining’ gas turbine
solutions worldwide for the aviation, power generation
and marine industries. Machining of an egg provides
a unique demonstration which illustrates the accuracy
and efficiency of this patented process by showing its
ability to engrave names and logos into the surface
of the shell of a raw, fresh egg. Like gas turbine components,
eggs are classic “variable geometry” parts
that whilst looking similar, no two are exactly the
same. To engrave a name or logo into the shell of an
egg, we machine evenly at a depth of 0.05mm (0.002 inches)
regardless of the surface variations. The problems of
engraving an egg are technically equivalent to machining
new cast or forged parts or removing the excess weld
from repaired components.

Production
or repair savings can be in excess of
50% ….
Within
the Gas Turbine industries typical
cost savings for repair or manufacture
of any given part can be in excess
of 50% with significant reductions
in cycle time, non-conformance, and
labour costs by the elimination of
handwork and human error. By utilising
a TTL
computer based automatic system linked
to standard CNC Machinery, a better
quality component is made or repaired
faster, more reliably, and at less
cost.
