3D Systems said it verified properties of NASA's new laser powder bed fusion super alloy, GRX-810.
The power of highly functional fabric manufacturing brings new possibilities to life.
As aerospace ramps up its use of advanced composites, robots and automated manufacturing systems will assume ever larger roles in building and machining these challenging materials.
The U.S. government is investing billions into semiconductor research, development, and production. What does it mean for manufacturers?
Manufacturers and fabricators need to consider the application and performance requirements of materials.
The Copper Development Association (CDA) is eager to help shops discover and tap into the high-speed machining advantages of brass. The substantial benefits of doing so have an increasing number of shops rethinking their part materials and, when possible, converting those parts to brass.
Marshall Aerospace and Defence Group is now using 3D printing from Stratasys to manufacture flight-ready parts for several of its military, civil and business aircraft—while producing specific ground-running equipment at a lower cost than aluminum alternatives.
It’s not too difficult to understand the importance of machining aluminum for aerospace applications. High volumes of aluminum are used, principally for structural components.
As a result of recent testing under real production conditions, brass proved to machine at extremely high speeds on today’s advanced machine tools with little evidence of tool wear, producing high-quality surface finishes and excellent chip control, reported the Copper Development Association (McLean, VA).
Developing better biosensors is one of the hurdles to be surmounted in order to bring tissue manufacturing to scale.
