Precision Parts Are Becoming More Critical Precision parts play an essential role in today’s manufacturing systems. From ...

According to the developer, using Sanmac specialty machining steels can enhance manufacturing times, plant throughput, and productivity. All around the world component manufacturers are looking for ...

Wire electric discharge machining (WEDM) shapes high-strength components by removing material through controlled thermal erosion. A recent study optimized WEDM parameters for AISI 1045 medium carbon ...

Precipitation-hardenable (PH) stainless steels are turning up in more and more aerospace applications because they can be age hardened, sometimes after being cold worked, to various strength levels ...

Metal fabrication has changed dramatically over the last decade. What once required large industrial operations and highly ...

Carbon steel, also called plain carbon steel, is a malleable, iron-based metal containing carbon, small amounts of manganese, and other elements that are inherently present. Steels can either be cast ...

Machining medium-hardened steel is particularly challenging because of its high strength and wear resistance, which generate excessive cutting temperatures. The elevated temperature contributes to ...

The development of extremely durable materials, which are challenging to manufacture but extensively employed in the nuclear, aviation, and many other industries, is a result of technological and ...

Fe, <0.15% C, 12.0-14.0% Cr, <1.25% Mn, <1.0% Si, <0.06% P, >0.15% S Grade 416 steel is a free-machining stainless steel with a machinability of 85%, highest of all stainless steels. With most of the ...

There has been tremendous progress made in recent years on ways to make roughing operations more efficient. But what about finishing? Long cycle times may be necessary to generate high-quality surface ...
