monobloc rotor

In the days I worked for SNECMA, a "disque aubagé" was a "rotor and vane assembly", precisely because it was not monobloc. At least I assume your item IS a single piece, NOT a monobloc rotor into which vanes are fitted (you'll reference to a "monobloc rotor with bolted vanes" on the Web).

Have not followed technological developments in the aero engine field for 20 years, so I'm only assuming they make one-piece rotors with vanes attached these days, using new machining technologies to overcome the problems with vane root attachment.

Contrary to Allan\'s suggestion, \"monobloc\" IS an English word, though possibly not one known to people of a non-technical persuasion.

Peer comment(s):

neutral Allan Jeffs : "monobloc" is not an English word! 'monoblock' à la limite Right I see you've some references to its use BUT I'm not convinced. It does not appear in the Robert & Collins or Oxford dictionaries, & never seen it used by the navy, auto or aviation indus

I beg to differ. See note added above.
