Advanced Manufacturing (Page 13)

How can you harness the power of high-power ultrasonic technology to optimize your manufacturing processes? EWI Project Engineer Amin Moghaddas recently developed a technique using special resolution V design and RSM to characterize and optimize ultrasonic-assisted drilling for aluminum 6061. This work is discussed in his paper, Modeling and Optimization of Ultrasonic-Assisted Manufacturing Process. You...

Navigating the Engineering Demands of E-mobility Vehicle electrification – once considered a trend related primarily to the manufacturing and assembly of batteries – now affects nearly every aspect of today’s vehicles. As the demand for vehicle electrification rapidly increases, manufacturers and suppliers face an array of engineering challenges. To help manufacturers prepare for and navigate...

Continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites (CFRTPCs) are increasingly being used in aerospace, automotive, and oil & gas (O&G) due to their low cost, recyclability, complex shape adaptability, high strength, and low weight. The CFRTPC market worldwide is projected to grow by US$634.1 million, driven by a compounded growth of 8.3%. Continuous Carbon Fiber displays the potential...
