Machinability is commonly improved by adding non-metallic inclusions to steels and alloys, yet at the cost of their reduced properties. We are happy to share our latest research on a new way of machinability improvement. The interaction of an alloy, cutting tool and environment can result in a refractory Tool Protection Layer during the cutting process, and this layer slows down tool wear and failure. Read this open-access article where we develop a concept of designed micro-alloying which purposefully creates a TPL in-operando during cutting and where we share the complete methodology. And we proudly share a validated success where a micro-alloying by Al improves machinability of Hadfield manganese steel by over 300% without sacrificing the alloy functionality. https://lnkd.in/dW_dqfwg Axel Bjerke, Susanne Norgren, Andreas Markström, Filip Lenrick, Latifa Melk

Hello, Check this picture of die-casting parts. Die casting is a highly efficient and precise manufacturing process used to produce complex metal parts with excellent dimensional accuracy and smooth surface finishes. It's ideal for high-volume production of components made from non-ferrous metals such as aluminum, zinc, and magnesium. Benefits include reduced material waste, consistent quality, and cost-effectiveness for large-scale manufacturing.

A transformation begins today from this solid #aluminum block, as our big face #endmill grinds into its potential. _ Aluminum is almost always the #metal of choice because it’s strong like #steel yet only 1/3rd the weight. It’s corrosion resistant, recyclable, and the most abundant metal in earths crust. _ It’s our honor at Precise to bring your custom #cncmachined parts to life! What do you think this will become? _ #manufacturingday #manufacturingmonth #manufacturing #manufacture #manufacturer #manufacturers #manufactured #engineer #engineering #engineered #engineers #engineers #engineerlife #engineerlife #precisetool

Cold roll forming technologies offer a range of significant benefits across various industries. One of the primary advantages is cost-efficiency. The process minimizes material waste through its precise control over material usage, resulting in reduced raw material costs and less scrap.  Additionally, its high production rates make it ideal for mass production scenarios, further contributing to cost savings. Cold roll forming ensures consistent dimensional accuracy and tight tolerances, enhancing the quality of the finished products. This process can create complex shapes and profiles that might be challenging with other methods, fostering design versatility. Furthermore, the mechanical properties of formed metals are enhanced, yielding components with improved strength and durability. As a result of its precision, cold roll forming often reduces the need for extensive post-processing, saving time and resources. Its adaptability to various metals and its ability to create lightweight designs make it a versatile solution for industries like automotive and construction. Ultimately, cold roll forming not only offers economic advantages but also contributes to more sustainable manufacturing practices due to its reduced energy consumption and material efficiency. #metalforming #manufacturing #metalshaping #engineeringinnovation #metalfabrication #formingprocesses #metalcomponents #industrialengineering #industrialautomation #qualityengineering Vatsal Thakkar

SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER, FORGING AHEAD. "I've got a FEVER, and the only prescription is more cowbell" Some may recognize this citation from a SNL (Saturday Night Live) skit with the actors Will Ferrel and Christopher Walken. Was it also a metaphor about the physical characteristics of alloys in musical instruments, and their accurate elemental composition? Observing this nice cross picture closely, there seems to be spots with different levels of radiation (color clue). Would this come from an inhomogeneous distribution, or perhaps a change in elemental composition? Our human reflexes are geared towards not touching intensely glowing pieces. Would you say the cross on the top is the hotter one? But what happens when the glow is absent? Like in the classic restaurant behavior following the meal serving with the note: "watch it, your plate is very hot". But of course we still mindlessly reposition it... In an indirect spinoff, there are scientific instrumentation developments that are aimed at obtaining "more cowbell". Many are "light decomposition" tricks. Hence my saying: "Spectroscopy Rules!" The goal is always to extract more information about the material being processed (before, during, and after). Would you say that even cowbells' properties are influenced by a few factors, including their elemental composition? All this "Jazz" has made me wonder: How are cowbells made and tested?
