Machining composites presents unique challenges compared to metals. Reinforcement fibers are abrasive, shortening tool life. The plastic matrix carries away little heat, unlike metal chips, and overheating can melt the matrix.

Advanced materials for automotive manufacturing are helping automakers build lighter, more fuel-efficient vehicles.

Composites engineers are expanding their craft to build more complex, durable parts at higher production volumes. One way they are achieving this objective is by using infusion-molding processes based on Resin Transfer Molding (RTM) and Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer Molding (VARTM).

Turning to software over paper reports does more than just save trees. Chris Mahar, Associate Editor of Manufacturing Engineering, talks with David McPhail, President and CEO of Memex Inc., about how manufacturers can utilize technology to improve efficiency, reduce downtime and boost productivity and profits across their business.

Manufacturers require a deep understanding of operations to make quick, data-driven decisions and keep production running in the face of unpredictable challenges.

Materials will be subjected to moon dust, low pressure and rapid temperature swings.

To climb the Mastercam learning curve, Ariel Corp. worked with CNC Software to craft a training course for its workforce.

High productivity, speed and long abrasives life are key for grinding applications in all types of materials.

The complex world of artificial intelligence and machine learning—and why it all matters

Materials.AI is trained on Fictiv's manufacturing data to help mechanical engineers navigate material options.
