Snippet: A team of scientists from Ames National Laboratory and Texas A&M University developed a new way to predict metal ductility. This quantum-mechanics-based approach fills a need for an inexpensive, efficient, high-throughput way to predict ductility. The team demonstrated its effectiveness on refractory multi-principal-element alloys. Credit: scitechdaily.com #metal #ductility #quantummechanics #efficient

Snippet: Anticipating the future, CNC machining holds a lot of promise and potential. Technological progress, like automation and artificial intelligence, is set to make CNC machines even more powerful. This means things like predictive maintenance, adaptive machining, and live monitoring will change how we do manufacturing. Credit: thebossmagazine.com #cncmachining #automation #ai #manufacturing

Snippet: Automated guided vehicles (AGVs) began full-scale operation in the factory last year and are providing a solution to Yamaha's longstanding problem of high-mix, low-volume production. They can be linked together to form an assembly line or they can disconnect from the line and move to the next assembly process on their own. Called the "AGV Bypass Method," it is an innovative production method that replaces the conventional conveyor style of product assembly.

Snippet: AI, together with the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and advances in ERP platforms, could be truly transformative.  Data from IIoT platforms can give quoting personnel real-world machine setup, run-time, and material handling data. This can complement the clock-in and clock-out data from ERP, as well as material data. Credit: thefabricator.com #iiot #erp #data #ai #quoting

Snippet: Machine tool selection also provides an avenue for reducing energy consumption. Compared to building and machining with a stand-alone lathe and a stand-alone milling machine, a multitask machine can require less energy, according to Dornfeld.

Snippet: Machine tending robots are a key component of lights-out manufacturing, a term referring to a production method requiring minimal human involvement on the factory floor—essentially operating autonomously, even in a dark and vacant factory. These robots are indispensable for running a production line overnight. Credit: bdc.ca #robots #roboticprocessautomation #machinetending #lightsout #production

Snippet: Broaching constitutes a machining technique where material removal is accomplished using a distinct tool known as a broach. The broach, a multi-toothed cutting implement, systematically enlarges as it traverses, allowing it to cut diverse sections of a workpiece in one pass. This method proves particularly effective in the precise fabrication of internal keyways, splines, and intricate shapes.

Snippet: The two most common post-processing operations used in the CNC machining manufacturing process are heat treatments (annealing, case hardening) and surface treatments (bead blasting, powder coating…). Applying the right surface finishes help improve surface roughness as well as the aesthetic and functional properties of the CNC machined parts.

Snippet: The sleek smartphones we carry, the powerful laptops we use, and the myriad electronic devices that define our connected world owe their existence, in part, to sheet metal fabrication. The role of this industry in shaping the casings and enclosures of electronic devices cannot be overstated. Credit: tech-critter.com #electronics #metalfabrication #casing #devices #connectedworld

Snippet: To facilitate rework in some cases, a CNC feature recently added by a number of machine builders allows five-axis machining to commence even if the rotary axes aren’t in the zero-point machine position, according to Errol Burrell, machining center product manager at Okuma America Corp., Charlotte, N.C. So if a part needs rework on a five-axis Okuma machine, it can be done even if the part isn’t positioned in the workholding exactly the way it was the first time it was machined.
