Rapid vision-based dimensional precision inspection of mesoscale artefactsProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part B: Journal of Engineering Manufacture - Tập 221 Số 4 - Trang 659-672 - 2007
Samir Mekid, Heeburm Ryu
This paper describes the investigation and implementation of image processing
techniques converted into precision measurement techniques for feature
inspection of mesoscale artefacts. The method resulted in a rapid, low-cost, and
precise inspection technique. Better performances are obtained with the
combination of the pixel uncertainty edge detector and the subpixel uncertainty
detector along wit... hiện toàn bộ
Machine tool optimization strategies for ecologic and economic efficiencyProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part B: Journal of Engineering Manufacture - Tập 227 Số 1 - Trang 54-61 - 2013
Adam Gontarz, F. Hänni, Lukáš Weiss, Konrad Wegener
Optimization activities in manufacturing must be addressed in the multifaceted
context that combines economic, social and environmental goals. Research
activities of today not only strive to cope with the legislative pressure of the
Directive of the European Parliament on Energy Using Products but also strive
for economic advantages for the machine tool user by investigating and applying
suitable ... hiện toàn bộ
Ultra-high-speed combined machining of electrical discharge machining and arc machiningProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part B: Journal of Engineering Manufacture - Tập 228 Số 5 - Trang 663-672 - 2014
Fei Wang, Liu Y, Zemin Tang, Renjie Ji, Yanzhen Zhang, Yang Shen
In this study, a new kind of ultra-high-speed combined machining of electrical
discharge machining and arc machining was developed. A rotating graphite
electrode and a workpiece were connected to the negative and positive poles of
the power supply, which consisted of a pulse generator and direct current power.
Efficient electrode injection flushing and side flushing yielded a noncontinuous
arc and... hiện toàn bộ
Evaluating errors in screw rotor machining by tool to rotor transformationProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part B: Journal of Engineering Manufacture - Tập 220 Số 10 - Trang 1589-1596 - 2006
Nikola Stošić
Screw compressor rotors are machined mainly by form grinding or milling tools.
The precision requirements imposed upon them are today so demanding that the
tool is allowed only limited wear and must be well set in the machine. It is
therefore important to be able to quantify the tool set errors as well as to
compensate for tool deformation and wear. Tool to rotor transformation is
applied here to ... hiện toàn bộ
Optimum Cutting Conditions for Turned ComponentsProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part B: Journal of Engineering Manufacture - Tập 206 Số 1 - Trang 15-31 - 1992
J.A. Arsecularatne, S. Hinduja, G. Barrow
This paper describes the procedures used in a technologically orientated
numerically controlled (NC-) system to determine the optimum culling conditions
automatically for turning, drilling, grooving, threading and parting-off
operations. In rough turning, the optimum depth and feed combination is
determined using a direct search procedure on the allowable depth/feed region
for chip control. The sy... hiện toàn bộ
Prediction of Cutting Forces and Built-Up Edge Formation Conditions in Machining With Oblique Nose Radius ToolsProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part B: Journal of Engineering Manufacture - Tập 210 Số 5 - Trang 457-469 - 1996
J.A. Arsecularatne, R.F. Fowle, P. Mathew, P.L.B. Oxley
A semi-empirical machining theory is described for predicting cutting forces and
temperatures for oblique nose radius tools from cutting conditions and a
knowledge of work material flow stress and thermal properties. Predictions are
made for a range of cutting speeds and tool geometries. It is shown how the
cutting conditions giving a built-up edge can be determined from the predicted
cutting temp... hiện toàn bộ
Prediction of Chip Flow Direction and Cutting Forces in Oblique Machining with Nose Radius ToolsProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part B: Journal of Engineering Manufacture - Tập 209 Số 4 - Trang 305-315 - 1995
J.A. Arsecularatne, P. Mathew, P.L.B. Oxley
A method is described for calculating the chip flow direction in terms of the
tool cutting edge geometry and the cutting conditions, namely feed and depth of
cut. By defining an equivalent cutting edge based on the chip flow direction it
is then shown how cutting forces can be predicted given the work material's flow
stress and thermal properties. A comparison between experimental results
obtained... hiện toàn bộ
Review on powder-bed laser additive manufacturing of Inconel 718 partsProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part B: Journal of Engineering Manufacture - Tập 231 Số 11 - Trang 1890-1903 - 2017
Xiaoqing Wang, Xue Gong, Kevin Chou
This study presents a thorough literature review on the powder-bed laser
additive manufacturing processes such as selective laser melting of Inconel 718
parts. This article first introduces the general aspects of powder-bed laser
additive manufacturing and then discusses the unique characteristics and
advantages of selective laser melting. The bulk of this study includes extensive
discussions of m... hiện toàn bộ
Life cycle analysis of grinding: a case study of non-cylindrical computer numerical control grinding via a unit-process life cycle inventory approachProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part B: Journal of Engineering Manufacture - Tập 226 Số 10 - Trang 1604-1611 - 2012
Vance R. Murray, Fu Zhao, John W. Sutherland
It is estimated that the industrial sector is responsible for 29% of the United
States’ greenhouse gas emissions. Recent efforts have sought to reduce the
carbon footprint of manufacturing activities. Research suggests that a key to
further reducing industrial-based greenhouse gas emissions is to more accurately
characterize the carbon footprint of manufacturing processes. Life cycle
assessment is... hiện toàn bộ
