Abstract

A strainer for filtration in an oil circuit of a turbine engine, in particular a multi-flow turbojet engine, is housed in a bore of a lubrication assembly. The oil serves to lubricate and cool mechanisms of the turbine engine. The strainer includes a filtering portion as an angular tube portion and a holding structure for the filtering portion. The structure forms a thickening and exhibits rings and structural posts. A magnet is added in a socket formed by the structure. The structure and the filtering portion are integral and are produced by additive manufacturing, which simplifies production. The application likewise relates to a method of producing the strainer.
