Part design is the principal source of communicating design intent to manufacturing and inspection. Design data are often communicated through computer-aided design (CAD) systems. Modern analytics tools and artificial intelligence integration into ma...
This paper introduces a new formability test based on double-action radial extrusion to characterize material formability in the three-dimensional to plane-stress material flow transitions that are found in bulk metal-formed parts. The presentation d...
An engineering grade polymer—glass fiber-reinforced polyphenylene ether blended with polystyrene—and an aluminum alloy—AA6082-T6—were joined by friction stir welding in an overlap configuration. A comprehensive analysis was co...
In order to capitalize on the cost-effectiveness of additive manufacturing (AM), it is critical to understand how to build components with consistency and high quality. Directed energy deposition (DED) is an AM method for creating parts layer by laye...
A precise prediction of the rolling force is critical to ensure the quality of the final product, especially in the cold rolling of thin strips. Based on this, a new mathematical model is developed to work out the rolling force when considering the r...
Component porosity is a quality attribute in additive manufacturing (AM). One possibility for the non-destructive three-dimensional determination of porosity or pore shape is X-ray computed tomography (CT), which enables an investigation of the influ...
In recent years, welding feedback control systems and weld quality estimation systems have been developed with the use of artificial intelligence to increase the quality consistency of robotic welding solutions. This paper introduces the utilization...
Thermo-deformation treatment refers to methods of strengthening during which strengthened layers with a nanocrystalline structure are formed in the surface layers by modifying the metal surface layer, which changes its phase and structural and chemic...
The residual stress state of the machined sub-surface influences the service quality indicators of a component, such as fatigue life, tribological properties, and distortion. During machining, the radius of the cutting edge changes due to tool wear....
The time taken to exchange a cutting tool and the actual machining time are the components in a total production cycle time for a part, that affects productivity. Automated plate exchange systems strive for the simplest possible principles to achieve...
