This paper describes a hybrid manufacturing approach for silicon carbide (SiC) freeform surfaces using binder jet additive manufacturing (BJAM) to print the preform and machining to obtain the design geometry. Although additive manufacturing (AM) tec...
Including the inherent temporal variability in a production system in planning and control processes can ensure the fulfillment of the production schedule and increase key performance indicators. This benefits the sustainable and efficient use of the...
This work deals with the experimental investigation and multi-objective optimization of mean kerf angle (A) and mean surface roughness (Ra) in laser cutting (LC) fused filament fabrication (FFF) 3D-printed (3DP), 4 mm-thick polylactic acid (PLA) plat...
This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the one-shot drilling (CFRP) strategy for machining CFRP materials in the assembly of aircraft components, focusing on key factors such as tool wear, hole delamination, and the evolution of machining fo...
This paper proposes a genetic algorithm approach to solve the identical parallel machines problem with tooling constraints in job shop flexible manufacturing systems (JS-FMSs) with the consideration of tool wear. The approach takes into account the r...
Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) techniques for hybrid manufacturing have led to new application areas in the manufacturing industry. In the tooling industry, cooling channels are used to enable specific heating and cooling cycles to improve the pe...
Electrical resistivity was used in this test methodology to estimate the relative precipitate density in AA7075. Various electrical test parameters were explored to determine the difference between pulsed and DC-type currents. No difference between t...
The paper presents the microstructural characterization of the chip roots in high-speed steels and ceramic Ti3SiC2. The process of chip formation and the obtaining of adequate samples were carried out using the quick-stop method. The tests were carri...
The processes of metal additive manufacturing (AM) are no longer confined to rapid prototyping applications and are seeing increasing use in many fields for the production of tools and finished products. The ability to design parts with practically z...
Incremental forming (IF) is an advanced manufacturing process in which a forming tool locally deforms sheet material into a desired geometry through successive passes at incremental depths. An inherent benefit to the IF process is its formability imp...
