From Boeing 787s to new Navy destroyers, fiber-reinforced composites are gaining in use. As production scales up, more-efficient manufacturing remains a focus. One key to that efficiency is tooling for composites. These molds and forms give the final shape to a part, and are often integral to their final curing.
Keeping products clean is becoming a more significant part of manufacturing as standards for cleanliness, deburring, and finish grow more stringent.
The Department of Defense has awarded Micross Components $134.3 million under the IBAS Cornerstone RESHAPE program.
The work of SME Additive Community members encompasses the entire history of the technology as well as its most novel applications.
When SOP Technologies sought the ideal destination to develop, test, manufacture, and market its devices that help stop ocean pollution, Miami quickly rose high on the list.
The true story of AM—it’s current and potential abilities and the people who continue to develop it—deserves to be heard.
There are many key benefits from investing in robotics to help manage maintenance and repairs of manufacturing equipment.
Manufacturing Engineering editor-in-chief Alan Rooks is retiring.
With the use of composites in demanding applications increasing, improving knowledge of their fire performance is becoming a safety-critical issue, particularly for building and transportation applications.
