Abstract
A system for machining an abradable material of a gas turbine engine and associated methods. The system includes a frame including a first arm extending from a central location. The system further includes an attachment structure coupled to the frame at the central location. Moreover, the attachment structure is configured to couple to at least a fan rotor of the gas turbine engine. Additionally, the system includes a cutting apparatus coupled to a first distal end of the first arm opposite the central location. The cutting apparatus includes a rotating shaft and plurality of cutting disks coupled to the rotating shaft. Further, the plurality of cutting disks define a helical cutting profile configured to machine a contour within the abradable material complementary to at least one fan blade of the gas turbine engine.
