The manufacturing process carried out in the investment casting industry suffers from problems similar to other production processes. In addition, high requirements of customers and industries that require these parts mean quality standards must be met. If those are not achieved, this leads rejection manufactured parts. Therefore, given current technology revolution (i.e., Industry 4.0) possibilities offered by tools such as digital twins artificial intelligence, it is possible work on a...
This work investigated the premature failure of a beam reinforcement made austenitic stainless steel AISI 310 used in entrance rolling furnace working continuously at cycles from 650 to 850 °C. Fracture surface and microstructural investigations allowed identify fracture mechanism as fatigue failure. The was probably initiated oxidized grain boundaries an early stage service life, when no microstructure degradation present, while most crack propagation occurred after precipitation secondary...
Reduced hot cracking susceptibility is essential to ensure the flawless manufacturing of nickel superalloys typically employed in welded aircraft engine structures. The precipitation strengthened alloy 718 mainly depends on chemical composition and microstructure resulting from thermal story. Alloy usually a solution annealed state. However, even with this treatment, cracks can be induced during standard industrial conditions, leading costly time-consuming reworking. In work, wrought...
Ni-Cr-Si-Fe-B self-fluxing alloys are commonly used in hardfacing applications; addition, they subjected to conditions of wear, corrosion, and high temperatures, but not casting applications. In this work, gravity is presented as a potential manufacturing route for these alloys. Three with different chemical compositions were investigated focus on microstructure characterization, solidification path, strengthening mechanisms. Phases precipitates characterized using field emission scanning...
In this work, weldability and hot cracking susceptibility of five alloy 718 investment castings in laser beam welding (LBW) were investigated. Influence chemical composition, with varying Si contents from 0.05 to 0.17 wt %, solidification rate, pre-weld heat treatment studied by carrying out three different tests, i.e., ductility, Varestraint, bead-on-plate after isostatic pressing (HIP) solution annealing treatment. Onset ductility drop was directly related the presence residual Laves...
This paper covers three significant aspects. Firstly, a global approach to manufacture high-added value components is presented.. process involves holistic perspective for the entire process: from design conception market implementation. It needs be emphasized that manufacturing implies challenge in term of modeling and systems integration. Moreover, particular progresses programming, modeling, measuring, monitoring customers´ quality requirements involved improvement mentioned cycle....
Nowadays, in the automation and aircraft industries, there is a challenge minimizing weight of components vehicles without losing original properties. In this study, we fabricate hybrid composites based on fiber metal laminates; these materials could be promising for high-performance applications. This work focused analyzing effect high temperature (175 °C) mechanical properties kind materials, by introducing NaOH silane adhesion treatments between prepreg layers using vacuum molding...
Reducing hot cracking is essential for ensuring seamless production of nickel superalloys, which are extensively used in welded structures aircraft engines. The prevalence precipitation-strengthened alloy 718 primarily governed by two factors: firstly, the chemical composition and coarse microstructure formed during solidification, secondly, activation mechanisms, particularly critical mushroom-shaped welding morphologies. In this study, different nickel-based superalloys using laser beam...
