METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CUTTING A PREFORM INTENDED FOR THE PRODUCTION OF A TURBOMACHINE PART
First Claim
1. A cutting system of a preform comprising visually identifiable weaving threads, the preform being usable to produce a turbomachine part, the system comprising:
- a cutting machine of the preform;
a memory, in which a pre-calculated cutting contour of the preform is recorded;
an imaging device of the preform;
a processing unit, configured to control the cutting machine and the imaging device for execution of the following steps;
taking an image of the preform;
processing the image to determine a deviation in a layout of the visually identifiable weaving threads relative to a reference layout;
correcting the cutting contour as a function of the deviation, and saving the corrected cutting contour in the memory; and
cutting the preform according to the corrected cutting contour.

Abstract
A method for cutting a preform usable for production of a turbomachine part and including a weaving of a plurality of threads, the threads including single threads that are visually identifiable, along a cutting contour calculated based on a preform model in which the threads have a reference arrangement, the method including: taking an image of the preform; processing the image to determine a deviation in an arrangement of the threads which are visually identifiable relative to the reference layout; correcting the cutting contour according to the deviation; and cutting the preform along the corrected cutting contour.

6. A cutting system of a preform comprising visually identifiable weaving threads, the preform being usable to produce a turbomachine part, the system comprising:
-
a cutting machine of the preform; a memory, in which a pre-calculated cutting contour of the preform is recorded; an imaging device of the preform; a processing unit, configured to control the cutting machine and the imaging device for execution of the following steps; taking an image of the preform; processing the image to identify at least one point of reference in the weaving of the preform, said point of reference corresponding to an intersection of visually identifiable threads in the preform, the cutting machine automatically correcting its position relative to the preform, from the identification of the point of reference; and cutting the preform according to the cutting contour. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8)
