Cross wedge rolling (CWR) is an advanced metal forming process that employs a series of wedged tools to plastically deform a workpiece into near-net shape components. This process has become ...

As spinning process continues to iterate and advance, an increasing number of tube parts are being formed by spinning process, encompassing both ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Concurrently, composite ...

This article will describe three types, or ways, of manufacturing a product; additive, subtractive, and forming. What is Additive Manufacturing? Think of an artist painting a bear on a canvas. What is ...

TuFF — Tailored Universal Feedstock for Forming — is a strong, highly aligned, short-fiber composite material that can be made from many fiber and resin combinations. Created at the University of ...

This week an international team of astronomers reports the first multiple-star system to be observed during the earliest stage of formation. This finding supports model predictions about how two- and ...

Short cycle times and automated methods are key to meeting the high production rates being sought for the next generation of narrowbody commercial aircraft, advanced air mobility (AAM), unmanned ...

There is a high chance that specific shapes and mechanical properties are required when sourcing an alloy product for an industrial, medical, or consumer application. This is where cold working ...
