Abstract

See full text

Two structural components, such as a gas turbine rotor hub and a rotor blade, are integrally joined to each other by friction welding, particularly linear friction welding. For this purpose, each component is provided with a joining surface and at least one of the two components is provided with a groove next to the respective joining surface. The groove extends fully or partly around the respective joining surface and serves for reducing stress in a normal and radial direction of the respective joining surface, whereby a more uniform heating of the joining zone is achieved and joining faults are avoided or at least reduced during the friction welding.
