In the first of a four-part series, Robert Dusenbury provides an overview of how his team went about designing and producing a golf putter to demonstrate the feasibility and benefits of closed-loop ...

The world of the product designer is all about designing and developing goods or products. Meanwhile, the machinist’s world is all about converting designs into real parts, based on the available ...

Some methods that can improve the process include examining prints and removing information that distracts from the engineers’ design intent. An innovative approach to design intent looks at geometric ...

Computer-Aided Design (CAD) and Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM) software are critical tools used in woodworking today. While these software programs share similarities in their capabilities, they ...

Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is a machining process that discharges electric sparks from two electrodes on a metal sheet to detach the desired shape. Also called spark machining, it employs ...

Modern CAD systems allow engineers to create intricate 3D models of avionics systems with remarkable detail. These designs incorporate real-world simulations, enabling engineers to test performance ...
