This study explores the influence of blade design on the low-pressure extrusion process, which is relevant to techniques like spheronization. We investigate how blade geometry affects the extruded paste and final product properties. A model paste was...

Engineers continue to be concerned about electrical discharge-machined components’ high energy consumption, machining debris, and poor dimensional precision. The aim of this research is to propose a hybrid neuro-genetic approach to improve the...

Surface modification through electrical discharge machining (EDM) results in many advantages, such as improved surface hardness, enhanced wear resistance, and better micro-structuring. During EDM-based surface modification, either the eroding tool el...

The surface quality of parts fabricated using laser-directed energy deposition additive manufacturing significantly affects the fatigue life, corrosion resistance, and performance of the components. Surface quality improvements remain a key challenge...

In this work, SiC–Ti3AlC2 and TiC–Ti3AlC2 composites produced by additive manufacturing are investigated. The issue of obtaining ceramic materials using additive manufacturing technologies is currently relevant, since not many modern addi...

Micro-milling, widely employed across various fields, faces significant challenges due to the small diameter and limited stiffness of its tools, making the process highly susceptible to cutting chatter and premature tool breakage. Ensuring stable and...

This review article focuses on the application of microwave-assisted techniques in various processes, including microwave-assisted extraction, microwave-assisted pyrolysis, microwave-assisted acid hydrolysis, microwave-assisted organosolv, and microw...

Manufacturing processes have always played a pivotal role in the life cycle assessment of products, necessitating focused efforts to minimize their impact on the environment. Thermoplastic composite manufacturing is no exception to this concern. With...

Cooling–lubricating processes have a big impact on cutting force, tool wear, and the quality of the machined surface, especially for hard-to-machine superalloys, so the choice of the right cooling–lubricating method is of great importance...

This research explores the utilization of powder fused filament fabrication (PFFF) for producing tungsten carbide-cobalt (WC-10Co) hardmetals, focusing on binder formulations and their impact on extrusion force as well as the influence of printing va...
