Journal of hp tooling - Issue 1/2024 Nothing is impossible This was the slogan of a well-known car manufacturer until it gradually became common parlance. Today, these words are often used to indicate that someone has accomplished something that seems almost impossible. Nothing is impossible is also the title of the article on page 42, which is about "Optimized chamfering of internal gears during the machining process", which opens up new possibilities in gear manufacturing. In the course of e-mobility, transmissions have undergone massive changes in terms of design and tolerances. Here, as in medical technology, perfect surfaces are a challenge. When the highest surface qualities in the micrometer range are required, grinding is often the method of choice, as the user reports in this issue show. They already give a small foretaste of the upcoming GrindingHub, the new hub of international grinding technology. Making the impossible possible has always characterized users of precision tools as well as their manufacturers. Sometimes all it takes is a small spark to change the world of machining, as Horst Lach vividly describes in his review of the history of LACH DIAMANT. Horst LACH If you take a closer look at the "Materials & Tools" section, you will see how diverse the possibilities are for finding the right cutting material and the perfect tool geometry for new, demanding machining tasks that were previously impossible to realize. These range from extremely hard CBN tools for machining brake discs to customized, extremely hard and wear-resistant diamond coatings for machining materials such as CFRP, graphite and aluminum alloys to ultra-hard PCD cutting materials for machining ceramic materials. In short, to make the impossible possible. Eric Schäfer The journal of hp tooling is the brand-new global publication on all aspects of #high #precision #tools, #accessories and their #applications. https://lnkd.in/eBsp7B48

Melting and solidification in an alloy during laser powder bed fusion process In laser powder bed fusion, an alloy undergoes a dynamic process of melting and solidification. A laser selectively melts powdered metal, layer by layer, forming intricate three-dimensional structures. Rapid cooling and solidification follow, defining the object's final shape and influencing its mechanical properties. This controlled interplay results in precise, tailor-made alloy components for advanced additive manufacturing. #manufacturing #additivemanufacturing #3dprinting #lpbf

Compression molding microstructures offers a lot of benefits, especially when it comes to maximizing the functional surface area that our customers care about! Unlike injection molding, Edge's molding technology enables us to do very high aspect ratio geometry for micron-scale features. This means better utilization of the surface area for challenging geometry, like 20 µm hex shaped wells that can be spaced 2 µm apart. This is the difference between fitting only a few hundred thousand features per part versus a few million features---millions of features means millions of data points, which means way more value for the customer. Please follow Edge to learn more about our precision compression molding technology and the materials we use: https://lnkd.in/eggtMm9u #compressionmolding #precisionmanufacturing #microfeatures #deeptech

Metal AM #SundayReading: “Hot Isostatic Pressing is a well-proven technology for minimising porosity in AM components. During the HIP process, the manufactured parts are subjected to both high temperatures and very high pressures in a controlled atmosphere, usually argon or nitrogen gas.” ✔️ Metal Additive Manufacturing is rapidly gaining momentum across a broad range of industries and is often used for producing components for challenging applications such as medical implants and rocket engines. 🚀 To maximise the mechanical strength and fatigue resistance of such critical AM parts, they are often processed by Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) to eliminate any residual porosity, and heat treated. 💥 Jim Shipley from Quintus Technologies provides an overview of HIP and High Pressure Heat Treatment technology for Powder Bed Fusion AM and considers the opportunities that a new generation of HIP equipment presents. 🎯 📑 Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/e5Z6vmCd 📩 For more unparalleled insight into the world of metal Additive Manufacturing, join our mailing list: https://lnkd.in/e4X5aWY #additivemanufacturing #3Dprinting #hotisostaticpressing

Over the past few years, I've been deeply exploring the issue of residual stress in metal additive manufacturing, particularly with Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF). Through working on numerous cases, I've observed that residual stress and subsequent part failure are significant challenges in LPBF, especially for bulk geometries. However, there are substantial advantages to using metal additive manufacturing for producing bulk parts. These include the ability to print complex geometries, high customizability, and the integration of multiple functions into a single unit. #AdditiveManufacturing #3DPrinting #LPBF #MetalAM #ManufacturingInnovation #Engineering #ResidualStress #AdvancedManufacturing #CustomDesign #ComplexGeometries

Question: Is the Al5X1 alloy brazable? And, what is a melting point, around 620-640C ?
We are excited to announce our new high-strength, anodizable aluminum alloy: EOS Aluminum Al5X1 🚀 By combining superior strength, elongation, and cost, EOS Aluminum Al5X1 provides a competitive cost-per-part (CPP) and excellent part performance. Applications printed with this material can also be anodized for both cosmetic and corrosion resistant protective properties. There are no limits to potential color choices, which could be important to consumer-facing products. Read more about EOS Aluminum Al5X1: https://bit.ly/3rTMapR 🔜 To hear more about this innovative new aluminum material from the team that developed it, register for our upcoming EOS Aluminum Al5X1 webinar: https://bit.ly/46TVIjK #futureisadditive #3Dprinting

When machining larger threads in long-chipping materials or normal steel and you want good chip control, a chip breaker in the threading operation might be a good solution. In combination with using a smaller tool and getting a narrower chip, these oscillating movements to the X-axis do a very good job of breaking those chips. This is machining a 4-TPI standard Acme thread with a standard 2mm Groove tool with chip breaker enabled. The wavelength determines the chip length before it breaks, here we are using 4 times the pitch as wavelength. Programmed with ThreadTracer in GibbsCAM This chip breaker in ThreadTracer is an implementation similar to Sandvik Coromant OptiThreading™. All credit to Sandvik for coming up with this solution for chip control in threading. Read about the configureability of this chip breaker in ThreadTracer here : https://lnkd.in/d2h74hbU #threading #machining #gibbscam #chipcontrol #chipbreaker
