Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2020208325A1] The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a plurality of monocrystalline guide vanes sectors each comprising at least a first blade extending between two platforms, using a lost-wax casting technique. The method involves pouring molten metal into a plurality of ceramic moulds (100) clustered around an axis (A) and controlled solidification of the poured metal in a furnace comprising a radiating heating element configured to be positioned around the cluster, a metal solidification front progressing within each mould in a direction (DS) parallel to the axis of the cluster during the course of the controlled solidification. The method is characterized by the presence, in each mould (100), of a second shell separated from a first shell for the moulding of the guide vanes sector and which delimits a second cavity (130) for the moulding of a dummy blade which acts as a heat shield.
