For the past few decades, additive manufacturing (AM) has developed from rapid prototyping using simple 3D printers to a complex manufacturing technology that enables the production of functional finished components. Additive manufacturing is evolving due in part to the expanding number of minerals that are now being explored and used, such as composites, ceramics, and […]
Read MoreEnsuring first-time quality has become a crucial aspect of the production process across all manufacturing industries. Processes continue to shift away from destructive techniques and sample testing conducted after preliminary production, and more toward inline monitoring throughout the entire manufacturing process.
Read MoreFor fabricators of welded structures that are subjected to cyclic loading, fatigue life analysis is critical—a significant percentage of engineering failures are due to fatigue.
