Abstract
A method for repairing or reconditioning a damaged component includes working the damaged component by removing a damaged region from the damaged component while creating a cutout corresponding to the damaged region so as to provide a worked component. The worked component is measured and a computer-aided design (CAD) model of a replacement piece based on the measuring and is configured to be inserted into the cutout of the worked component is created. The replacement piece is produced based on the CAD model. The replacement piece and the worked component are connected by joining.
