Four EWI associates have co-authored chapters in POWER ULTRASONICS: APPLICATIONS OF HIGH-INTENSITY ULTRASOUND, 2nd Edition, edited by Juan Gallego-Juarez, Karl Graff, and Margaret Lucas: Lindsey Lindamood and Mitch Matheny contributed to Chapter 10, "Ultrasonic Welding of Metals."Miranda Marcus was a co-author on Chapter 11, "Ultrasonic Welding of Plastics and Polymeric Composites."Amin Moghaddas co-wrote Chapter 15,...

For certain manufacturing applications, making selected components out of plastic via 3D printing has great advantages. A significant disadvantage for high-volume production, however, is the slow extrusion rates of polymer materials. EWI has developed a new technique using ultrasonic power that can increase the speed of polymer extrusion. This method is discussed in Speeding Up...

The Additive Manufacturing Consortium (AMC), operated by EWI, is pleased to announce its 2023 research portfolio, which includes three new projects and two continuations: High-strength Aluminum Testing and Characterization of Commercially Available Materials (new) – This project will conduct builds and compare results from three commercially available materials in the 7XXX series family. Materials from...
