Thermoelectric generation is a technology in which electricity is generated directly from waste heat discharged by automobile engines and factory furnaces, enabling effective utilization of this large ...

The ability to produce quality products hinges on four key competencies: modeling of process form and precision levels, design tolerancing of parts and products, selecting production processes that ...

Deformation processes transform solid materials from one shape into another. The initial shape is usually simple (e.g., a billet or sheet blank) and is plastically deformed between tools, or dies, to ...

Current machining technology has developed to make just about every conceivable object. Yet, there are still some things that, though they can be made, are difficult to finish. For example: removing ...

Cross-drilled holes act as conduits for fluids, lubricants and gases. Failing to remove burrs can cause blockage of these critical passages or create turbulence in the flow. In automated machining, ...

Siemens used this test part to demonstrate new state-of-the-art milling techniques. It is made of tool steel hardened to 54 HRC and was machined on a Micron HPM 800U machining center. Something most ...
