  • Tips for metal-to-plastic conversions
    . Plastic materials are often inherently corrosion resistant. It also takes a lot of energy to produce a metal part. Not only do metals have a much higher melt temperature, successive machining steps -- from stock shape to near-net and screw machining -- all require energy and time. Though CNC machining
  • Should I Use a Metal Machining Company to Manufacture my Plastic Parts?
    for any function, and can produce the part you need without the "trial-and-error" processes a metal machinist would use. A good plastic machining firm will have the material knowledge and the right machining processes to consistently give you the highest quality parts. If you need plastic machined parts
  • Tips for no-melt machining
    , thermoplastics can heat up and expand, then cool off and contract. The resulting hole will most likely be undersized. Another reason that plastics don't machine like metal is their low thermal conductivity. This makes it difficult to cool them during machining. They will soften, deform, or even
  • Concurrent machining kickstarts motorcycle production
    Rand's engineers developed a machining center with four separate spindles that perform all metal cutting on the frame simultaneously. Though simple in concept, turning it into reality was no easy task. The frames are steel, but it is critical they do not flex or bend when secured in the fixture
  • Photochemical Machining: Rapid Manufacturing Process
    is not as well understood or publicised as many of. method of material removal in PCM is based on the redox. the other non-conventional machining techniques such as. chemistry of etchant reduction effecting metal oxidation. electrodischarge machining (EDM), electrochemical. resulting in material dissolution
  • Water Jets Cut Machining Time, Cost
    can maintain kerfs as narrow as 0.05 in., independent of material thickness. It also does not put thermal or mechanical stresses on the part as traditional machining can. Atlantic's engineers found it wasn't possible to cut both S-splits at once. So, they created a fixture to hold the cylinder steady
  • Design Considerations for Metal Injection Molding
    Advanced manufacturing: Design Considerations for Metal Injection Molding Metal injection molding (MIM) produces relatively small (150 to less than 30-gm), complex, net, or near-net parts which can include features such as holes, radii, logos, and text. Moreover, MIM can make such parts for half
  • Rolling out complex metal parts
    . Cold drawing, on the other hand, uses extreme pressure to pull metals, such as copper and brass, and stainless or carbon steel through a controlled series of progressively smaller dies at ambient temperature. It gradually establishes part contours while cold working the metal, increasing its tensile
