Pulsed MIG/MAG welding is a variant of the conventional MIG/MAG welding process in which the current is pulsed. Pulsing was introduced originally for control of metal transfer at low mean current levels by imposing short duration high current pulses. The cycle consists of applying the repeated pulse current over a constant background current:Modern welding sets permit the use of a wide range of pulse amplitudes, durations and waveforms at frequencies from a few Hertz to a few hundred Hertz. Pulse amplitude and duration are best combined to melt and detach a single droplet of the same/slightly smaller diameter as the…
Morgan Advanced Materials is capitalising on growth in the ceramics market by investing in ANCA’s FX5 Linear to achieve high volume production without compromising accuracy The global ceramics market is expected to reach $287 billion by 2022, according to a recent report by Grand View Research, Inc[1]. Furthermore, advanced ceramics are expected to be the fastest-growing segment in terms of volume at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 9% through to 2022. With the increasing global demand of ceramics, Morgan Advanced Materials in Melbourne Australia, recently purchased an ANCA FX5 Linear machine, dedicated to the high volume production…
Technology from Renishaw is helping HiETA to move metal additive manufacturing (AM) from prototype manufacture into commercial production of its specialist range of heat exchangers. In particular, the recent addition of Renishaw’s RenAM 500M system at the company has enabled manufacturing times and, therefore production costs, to be reduced dramatically. The RenAM 500M is a laser powder-bed fusion additive manufacturing system designed specifically for the production of metal components on the factory floor. As well as incorporating a powerful 500 W laser to give faster processing than earlier models, the new equipment features an automated powder handling system that enables…
Cleaning of contaminated parts and components is an absolute must to bring the parts to their original working condition. It increases the operational efficiency. If the volume of cleaning required is massive, manual cleaning is ruled out. One has to opt for mechanized cleaning so as to avoid downtime and enhance productivity.Gala Precision Engineering, known for its standing and reputation for over 25 years, offers one stop solutions for deburring, finishing, washing & cleaning of machinery parts on a mass scale.“When you switch over to machine cleaning, you save up to 40% on expenses incurred on account of parts cleaning,”…

Prototyping might feel like an unenviable part of the product development cycle, but it’s really the soul of the whole thing. The decisions you make in prototyping can have lasting consequences — and make it either vastly easier or harder to get a working product to market.So, today, we’re going to look at the three primary methods of prototyping used currently, how they each excel and fall short and some variants and material choices you can consider for each.With any luck, by the end, you’ll have knowledge you can use to either launch your own prototype or find a third…

Why Laser marking system? LIFE Fiber laser is pumped with special high power multimode diodes via cladding surrounding as single mode core. Life of this individual multimode diode is quite long corresponding to conventional diode pump solid-state laser (DPSSL). Maintenance Free Fiber laser is virtually Maintenance Free compared to other conventional laser, as it doesn’t have mirror to be aligned and almost no optical components, which could have been damaged. PUMP DESIGN Fiber laser is pumped by multiple identical diodes all feeding same gain medium, whereas DPSSL is pumped by a single diode bar. In the unlikely event of failure…
