# Distortion-free manufacturing of large titanium integrally bladed rotors

## Abstract

The disclosure describes a process for eliminating residual stress in a forging for rotors including providing the forging for the rotor and removing a bulk material from an area located near airfoils of a finish part formed from the forging prior to process steps such as a rough turn, a finish mill of blades, a vibratory polish of the blades and a finish turn.
