A parameter window was established within which efficient bump formation can be achieved. Well-defined spherical structures with a height up to 60 μm and a diameter up to 250 μm were obtained at pulse energy Epulse = 2.5 ÷ 4 μJ and laser fluence F = 2.5–0.41 J/cm2).

It is a promising additive manufacturing (AM) method. However, arc additive manufacturing is difficult to use widely in industry due to its poor deformation, microstructure, and mechanical properties. Since the mechanical properties of materials can be greatly improved by rolling, a method for configuration synthesis of the side-rolling mechanism by using metamorphic mechanism theory is presented in this paper. Firstly, by analyzing the operational demands of the side-rolling mechanism, we obtained the motion cycle diagram for the metamorphic mechanism in addition to the corresponding equivalent resistance gradient matrix. Secondly, according to the motion cycle diagram and equivalent resistance gradient matrix of the metamorphic mechanism, the structure and constraint form of the metamorphic joints were established, and the relationship between the force variation and the structure and the constraint form of the metamorphic joints was also obtained. Then, the structures of all 12 corresponding constrained metamorphic mechanisms were synthesized. Ultimately, one among the twelve mechanisms was chosen as the side-rolling metamorphic mechanism. The topological transformation of its working configuration was examined. The results confirmed the feasibility and practicality of the proposed structural synthesis method in this study.","PeriodicalId":16319,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing","volume":"4 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138966460","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ganesh-Ram, Sadman Hafiz Durlov, Narges Shayesteh Moghaddam","doi":"10.3390/jmmp7060226","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3390/jmmp7060226","url":null,"abstract":"Ti6Al4V alloy (Ti64) is a popular material used in the aerospace, medical, and automotive industries due to its excellent mechanical properties. Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) is a promising manufacturing technique that can produce complex and net-shaped components with comparable mechanical properties to those produced using conventional manufacturing techniques. However, during LPBF, the rapid cooling of the material can limit its ductility, making it difficult to achieve high levels of ductility while maintaining the required tensile strength for critical applications. To address this challenge, this study presents a novel approach to controlling the microstructure of Ti64 during LPBF by using a border design surrounding the main parts. It is hypothesized that the design induces in situ martensitic decomposition at different levels during the fabrication process, which can enhance the ductility of the material without compromising its tensile strength. To achieve this aim, a series of Ti64 samples were fabricated using LPBF with varying border designs, including those without borders and with gaps from 0.5 to 4 mm. The microstructure, composition, and mechanical properties of the Reference sample were compared with those of the samples fabricated with the surrounding border design. It was found that the latter had a more homogenized microstructure, a higher density, and improvements in both ductility and tensile strength. Moreover, it was discovered that the level of property improvement and martensitic transformation can be controlled by adjusting the gap space between the border and the main part, providing flexibility in the fabrication process. Overall, this study presents a promising approach for enhancing the mechanical properties of Ti64 produced via LPBF, making it more suitable for critical applications in various industries.","PeriodicalId":16319,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing","volume":"44 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138967413","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The material removal rate (MRR), tool wear rate (TWR), residual stresses, and crater depth were analyzed in the current study in an effort to increase the productivity and comprehension of the die-sinking EDM process. A parametric design was employed to construct a two-dimensional model, and the accuracy of the findings was verified by comparing them to prior research. Experiments were conducted utilizing the EDM machine, and the outcomes were assessed in relation to numerical simulations of the MRR and TWR. A significant temperature disparity that arises among different sections of the workpiece may result in the formation of residual strains throughout. As a consequence, a structural model was developed in order to examine the impacts of various stress responses. The primary innovations of this paper are its parametric investigation of residual stresses and its use of Haynes 25, a workpiece material that has received limited attention despite its numerous benefits and variety of applications. In order to accurately forecast the output parameters, a deep neural network model, more precisely, a multilayer perceptron (MLP) regressor, was utilized. In order to improve the precision of the outcomes and guarantee stability during convergence, the L-BFGS solver, an adaptive learning rate, and the Rectified Linear Unit (ReLU) activation function were integrated. Extensive parametric studies allowed us to determine the connection between key inputs, including the discharge current, voltage, and spark-on time, and the output parameters, namely, the MRR, TWR, and crater depth.","PeriodicalId":16319,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing","volume":"68 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139004071","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mainly, the use of locking screws requires an implant thickness of approximately 2 mm for screw thread formation. Friction drilling is a hole-making process that displaces material to create a bushing below the sheet rather than extracting material. This experimental study explores the influence of axial force, rotational speed, and workpiece pre-heating temperature on the bushing height and thickness during friction drilling of titanium grade 2 sheets. The drilling parameters are optimized for both drilling at room temperature and at elevated temperatures for maximum bushing thickness with at least a bushing height of 1 mm. Subsequently, the samples are characterized for their microstructure and hardness, revealing preserved strength with a larger thermomechanical affected zone (TMAZ), a more gradual hardness gradient around the drill zone, and a significant reduction in microdefects in the bushing structure of the pre-heated sheets.","PeriodicalId":16319,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing","volume":"48 22","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138597531","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The dissimilar friction stir lap welding (FSLW) of two different aluminium alloys (AA5182 and AA5052 with two different thicknesses) to steels AISI1010 and DP1000 was performed in this work, in order to analyse the effect of the mismatch in base material properties and plate thickness on the joint strength and fracture location. The mechanical behaviour and the strength of the welds were assessed using transverse tensile–shear testing and hardness measurements. Strain data acquisition through Digital Image Correlation (DIC) was used. The differences in fracture location registered for the different joints are explained based on the alloy’s plastic properties and on the mismatch in thickness between the plates. Local stress–strain curves were plotted, using the strain data acquired through DIC, to highlight the mechanisms resulting in the differences in tensile behaviour among the joints. It is concluded that despite the differences in failure location and tensile behaviour, the strength of the joints was very similar, irrespective of the base material combinations.","PeriodicalId":16319,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing","volume":"44 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138595102","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, the impact of injection molding parameters, such as the injection velocity and packing pressure, on the acoustic parameters of polymers, namely the elastic moduli, is studied. The measurements lead to calculating material parameters, such as the Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio, that can be swiftly measured and determined thanks to this method. Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) was used as the molding material, and using PMMA LG IG 840, the parts were simulated and injection molded, applying a ‘design of experiment’ (DOE) statistical method. The results indicated a correlation between the injection molding process parameters and the acoustic characteristics, such as the elastic moduli, and a specifically decreasing trend with increase in the injection velocity. Notably, a relative decrease in the Young’s modulus by 1% was observed when increasing the packing pressure from 90MPa to 120MPa. Similarly, a decrease in the Poisson’s ratio of 2.9% was observed when the injection velocity was increased from 16mm/s to 40mm/s. This method can be used to fine-tune the material properties according to the needs of a given application and to facilitate the characterization of different polymer acoustic properties essential for acoustic-based polymer devices.","PeriodicalId":16319,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing","volume":"34 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138596321","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One way to improve cutting tools involves transitioning from soldering to adhesive bonding in the manufacturing process. However, there is limited research comparing adhesively bonded tools with soldered tools in woodcutting applications. This paper presents a comparison between adhesively bonded and soldered tools in the cutting of medium-density fiberboards over a cutting distance of 1000 m. The results indicate that adhesively bonded tools are well-suited for machining medium-density fiberboards. Additionally, the cutting-edge radii exhibit a slower increase and the tool temperatures are higher compared to soldered tools. Future research could optimize the damping effect through the precise design of the bonding area. Additionally, investigating a cooling concept for the machining process could help minimize ageing effects.","PeriodicalId":16319,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing","volume":"50 16","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138597452","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, this introduces significant challenges during cell production, as manufacturing steps must be adapted. Currently, copper is used as the current collector on the anode side and aluminum on the cathode side. These current collectors are then joined within the cell with an arrester tab. This step, known as contacting, is carried out industrially in pouch cells using ultrasonic welding or laser beam welding. However, since the polymer foil is electrically insulating, the current contacting procedures cannot be directly transferred to the metal–polymer current collectors. In this work, ultrasonic welding, laser beam welding, and a mechanical contacting method are considered, and the challenges arising from the material properties are highlighted. The properties of the joints are discussed as a function of the number of foils and the coating thickness of the metallization. It is demonstrated that successful contacting by ultrasonic welding and mechanical clamping is possible, as both mechanical strength and electrical conductivity are ensured by the joint. Laser beam welding was unsuccessful. Additionally, the electrical resistance is one to two orders of magnitude higher than that of pure aluminum and copper foils, which necessitates further optimization. Furthermore, ultrasonic welding is limited to welding 16 foils or fewer. This does not match industrial requirements. Consequently, novel approaches for contacting metal–polymer current collectors are required.","PeriodicalId":16319,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing","volume":"93 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138599900","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the major factors affecting the mechanical properties of spot welds and the variation in weld quality is electrode wear and alloying. In this study, Rogowski coils and twisted pairs attached to the top and bottom electrodes were used to obtain the welding current and the voltage between the electrodes in the welding process, thereby calculating the dynamic resistance value during the welding process. The electrode tip diameter was obtained from the pressure exerted by the upper and lower electrodes on the carbon paper when the current was cut off and was regarded as an indicator of electrode wear. By continuously welding 0.5 mm thick BH 340 steel plates until the electrode failed, the dynamic resistance signal was recorded in real time. Simultaneously, the electrode diameter after every several welds was also recorded. On this basis, the correlation between electrode tip diameter and dynamic resistance is studied. In order to quantitatively study the mapping relationship between dynamic resistance and electrode wear, 10 characteristic values were extracted from the dynamic resistance, and the stepwise regression method was used to obtain the regression formula between the characteristic values and the electrode tip diameter. Using new data to verify the effectiveness of the regression model, the acquired results display that the maximum error between the predicted value of the electrode tip diameter and the measured value obtained by the regression equation with the interactive quadratic term is 0.3 mm, and the corresponding relative error is 7.69%. When welding with a new pair of electrodes, the maximum absolute error was 0.72 mm, and the relative error of the model prediction is within 20% according to the linear regression model with interaction terms. This indicates that this regression model is barely satisfactory for monitoring electrode condition.","PeriodicalId":16319,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing","volume":"11 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138603632","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
