The right tooling can have a profound effect on a shop’s competitiveness and future growth.

A few vital areas in which advanced manufacturing is providing significant gains.

There comes a time in every machine tool’s life when something needs to be done to improve its operating ability.

Metal diffusion bonding is an essential joining method for achieving a high-purity interface when two similar metals require superior structural integrity. The process involves applying high temperature, and pressure to metals mated together in a hot press causes the atoms on solid metallic surfaces to intersperse and bond.

To combat the loss of more seasoned operators to retirement, job shops are turning to more modern, automated surface grinders.

With the use of composites in demanding applications increasing, improving knowledge of their fire performance is becoming a safety-critical issue, particularly for building and transportation applications.

Automated feature recognition, knowledge-based machining, advanced toolpath simulation and digital twins are a few CAM technologies making programming more of a technical exercise than the tribal knowledge-inspired art form it has long been.

Five-axis machining has progressed from exotic to mainstream over the past few years.

Manufacturing Engineering editor-in-chief Alan Rooks is retiring.
