As additive manufacturing emerges from a long infancy, the industry is grappling with a key challenge: A file format and design tools from the 20th century are being asked to do 21st century jobs.
CAD/CAM improves generative design, print simulation, path programming and process control in additive manufacturing.
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.
Guill Tool has announced its intent to offer merchant machining services to the global aerospace industry.
Key steps are virtual twins and real relationships.
Bosch said it is moving forward with volume production of silicon carbide chips.
While fossil fuels dominate the energy market, expect a new mix of parts as renewable energy and EVs grow in market share.
Thermwood Corp. has added a third print orientation to its LSAM Large Scale Additive Manufacturing systems.
The most important step in digitizing any manufacturing or supply chain process is analysis of the ROI and business case and being able to demonstrate success to company leaders.
Industrial computed tomography is a cost-effective, reliable way to meet intensifying
requirements for qualifying both the design of aerospace parts and the materials needed for their construction.
