CF34-8C Compressor

Recent CFM International and CF34* repair releases reduce customer costs and increase engines’ time on wing:

CFM56-3 Combustion Case Aft End Replacement: A repair that replaces a distressed section with new material, salvaging parts previously unserviceable and reducing the scrap rate by up to 60%.

CFM56-5A, -5B, -5C, -7 Combustion Chamber Aft Datum Flange Replacement: This repair uses the new Tech Insertion flange as an upgrade to the current design, improving durability. This is accomplished through reduced cracking and separation from the combustor case.

CF34-8 Low-Pressure Turbine (LPT) Stage 4 Blade Light Repair: This repair addresses missing or depleted coating, minor dents and scratches and repairs the airfoil twist. The repaired coating provides for an additional repair cycle and achieves a yield of 96%.
