Eliminating a weak link in high-speed machining | Precision Turned Component

A carrot breeder recently told me about working on a new variety of purple carrot only to bump up against restrictions for the level of purple color: “I had to be careful I didn’t infringe on their ‘purpleness’ patent and instigate a lawsuit, so I stayed clear.”

But, while some Production customers allowed Desktop Metal to showcase some of their parts at the show, they “can be pretty tight-lipped about using their names.” Lyons said that this is not the case with Studio System customers – Desktop Metal has collected data and use cases on over 1,000 customer benchmarks to get a good feel for how these parts made on its machine are being used.

The Birchwood Technologies system that A.R. Machining installed consists of seven 220-gal (832.8-l) capacity tanks with a 48 × 30 × 35″ (1,219 × 762 × 889 mm) footprint. An overhead crane is positioned above the system to handle large individual parts and baskets of smaller parts. The tank line setup is equipped with an adjacent ion exchange system that purifies and recycles the system’s rinse waters.

One of the earliest applications of 3D printing and one that is now widely used is that of custom tooling.

 The representative of the Israeli company suggested that Spike fits well within the aforesaid set of requirements. Stark said that Spike is not a single missile, it is rather a family of missiles which means that the effector may be used for a number of purposes, ranging from close quarters to vast distance attacks, assuming that it would be integrated on different platforms. Light Spike-SR missiles may be used at distances as short as 50 meters. Meanwhile, Spike-NLOS offers a maximum range of up to 30 kilometers. 

For the first nine months revenues increased 16.4% to $37.3 million . Operating Income increased 31.7% to $2 million , while earnings per share were 17 cents compared to 21 cents in the previous year.

Let me ask you this question. There was a call there and somebody who dropped off the phone line about graphene. There was research– I know Ryan, we were talking about this– published this week that take two sheets of graphene and sort of twist them around and there is superconducting spots on them. Did I get that right, close at all? Is graphene a good candidate, Eva, for using superconductivity? 

Organic growing reduces the use of harmful chemicals, improves the soil’s ability to sequester carbon and retain water, and strengthens biodiversity. As the climate grows more severe and unpredictable, we will need seeds adapted to this kind of farming, and to their environments — precisely what a centralized, chemical-driven industry is not built to provide.

The High Torque retention knob is longer to reach deeper into the threaded bore of the toolholder. As a result, all thread engagement occurs on the toolholder where there is a thicker cross-section of material to resist deformation.

To analyze and research the global Turning Tools status and future forecast，involving, production, revenue, consumption, historical and forecast.

IRA FLATOW: And Eva Zurek, who is professor of chemistry at my alma mater, University of Buffalo, in Buffalo. Welcome to Science Friday. 

“Some of the software’s high-efficiency machining allows you to use the entire flute of that cutter rather than dulling the very tip of the cutter. In the old days you’d have 90% of the cutting flute sharp as day, but you’d have to throw that tool out and start again. Now you can get way better tool life and prep things much faster, and you still have reasonably sized chips,” Ross said. He shared that tool life has more than tripled since using Dynamic, and roughing time has been cut down 90 percent.
