Abstract
A method for preparing an abradable panel for a rub strip of a fan case of a gas turbine engine includes forming an abradable material into a plurality of panels each comprising an abradable structure; curing the abradable material in the plurality of panels; and installing the plurality of panels into the fan case. The panels can be cured and assembled into a fully assembled rubstrip, and then the assembled rubstrip can be installed into the fan case.
