Abstract
A process for manufacturing a hollow turbomachine blade made from a type TA6V titanium alloy includes a hot forming step in which an element of the blade is isothermally shaped in a press at a temperature between 700° C. and 940° C. under the action of at least two stamps and a holding-clamp which press the blade element on a shaping die, while ensuring a controlled deformation rate so as to obtain a lengthening of the fibers, that is to say the elongation of the different fibers of the element, with a controlled distribution on both sides of the central fiber. A multiple-action furnace-press designed for carrying out the process is also described.
