Assembly, treated article, and process of treating a turbine component

Abstract:

In some embodiments, a process treats a turbine component. The turbine component includes an article and a wear component brazed to the article. The process includes applying a braze tape on at least a portion of the wear component and thermal processing the turbine component while the braze tape is on the at least a portion of the wear component to treat the turbine component. In some embodiments, an assembly includes a turbine component. The turbine component includes an article and a pre-sintered preform brazed to a surface of the article. The assembly also includes a braze tape on at least a portion of the pre-sintered preform. In some embodiments, a treated turbine component includes a treated article and a pre-sintered preform brazed to a surface of the treated article. The treated turbine component has been thermally processed with the pre-sintered preform being substantially free of re-flow.
