The EDM process is adequate for machining of narrow slots in low machinability materials, such as Ni based alloys used aeronautical applications. This paper studies the influence main parameters involved this process. objective to determine effect related discharge (current, pulse time and servo voltage) on electrode wear. Influence has been studied using Central Composite Design Experiments. Results reveal that current well pulse, are most influencing parameters. Trends material removal...
<title>Abstract</title> Electroplated cBN tools are widely used in superabrasive machining (SAM) processes for grinding nickel-based alloys, which play a crucial role the aerospace industry. These commonly employed airfoils and vanes, but their application manufacturing of Integrated Blade Rotors (IBRs) remains limited. This study presents methodology evaluating performance SAM when geometrical surfaces analogous to IBR airfoils. Test parts made from Inconel 718 where machined by...
Industrial Computed Tomography (CT) is a widely used Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) technique for evaluating internal and external geometries with high accuracy. However, its integration into industrial workflows often hindered by long scan times energy consumption, raising sustainability concerns. This study introduces novel approach to improving CT efficiency integrating real-time consumption monitoring the scanning process. A power measurement device was correlate parameters usage image...
Manufacturing high aspect ratio slots in low machinability aeronautical materials using conventional machining methods is an arduous work. Electrical discharge has become appropriate solution to carry out this task due the independence of process from material properties such as hardness or machinability. Former works show that parameters have influence on removal rate (and consequence time) and electrode wear. However, flushing not been considered yet. During slot erosion, there a depth...
Abstract Wire electro discharge machining (WEDM) has become one of the most popular processes for producing precise geometries in hard materials, such as those used tooling industry. Since it is recognized a precision process, optimization different aspects related to dimensional accuracy classic research topic. The so-called taper-cutting involves generation inclined ruled surfaces, and especially important manufacturing requiring draft angles. In this paper computer simulation software...
Theoretical models of manufacturing processes provide a valuable insight into physical phenomena but their application to practical industrial situations is sometimes difficult. In the context Industry 4.0, artificial intelligence techniques can efficient solutions actual problems when big data are available. Within field intelligence, use deep learning growing exponentially in solving many related information and communication technologies (ICTs) it still remains scarce or even rare...
This work aims to present an XRCT-based FEM methodology assess the influence of porosity defects on mechanical behavior and failure L-PBF AlSi10Mg components. Hence, performance is estimated by means XRCT scanning analysis features, followed modelling digitalized For this purpose, some test specimens with induced artificial were manufactured L-PBF, according ASTM E8/E8M. Once done, inspection defect characterization carried out XRCT. Porosity features such as void size, shape location, apart...
The wire electro-discharge machining (WEDM) is a widely-used process suitable to achieve the increasingly demanding precision requirements imposed by industry. Nevertheless, use of conventional WEDM machines under some complex geometrical conditions makes sometimes difficult fulfill these requirements, which topic interest in manufacturing high-added aerospace components. Different effects overlap damage when cutting geometries. In this work study on causes dimensional deviations...
Abstract Inconel® 718, known for its excellent mechanical properties in extreme conditions, presents machining challenges due to low machinability. The chip formation process, influenced by high ductility and thermal conductivity, leads material adhesion cutting forces. Ceramic tools have been proposed mitigate these inconveniences. Textured emerged as a promising solution, aiming optimise tool-chip contact and, with it, the tribological conditions This study investigates influence of...
Holes of 0.3-0.4 mm diameter and large depths are typical features in aerospace components Ni-based Ti-based alloys. The EDM process is a popular manufacturing method for this type precision holes difficult-to-machine materials. Optimization technology requires taking into account different aspects such as parameters, electrode material set-up. These variables affect performance terms processing time, dimensional tolerances wear. In paper it shown that the set-up low-diameter electrodes can...
