A method for repairing a component of a rotary machine, the component extending in an axial direction and a radial direction vertical thereto, and comprising a plurality of inner channels, each inner channel extending from a first end in a center of the component to a second end at a radial limiting surface of the component, adjacent channels being respectively separated by a separating wall, the method comprising:
- identifying damaged areas of the component at the radial limiting surface or at one of the channels or at one of the separating walls;
- manufacturing a blank by a machining removal or by a separating removal of the damaged areas, the blank comprising a core of the center of the component;
- and
- replacing the removed damaged areas by a build-up process on the blank to manufacture the final form of the component,
- the blank being subtractively processed in a first subtractive process step in such a manner, that an outer contour is elaborated in the area of the outer surface, the contour extending at least in the radial direction, and then the channels are finished by a build-up process on the blank,
- the second end of the channel opening in the radial limiting surface of the component.
