Utilizing telecentric optics along with an alignment monitoring system configured to monitor and orient the stator core, the core slots can be oriented relative to the imaging axis for further metrology measurements. Among these measurements, the smallest opening dimensions (slot width and depth) of each slot due to misalignment of laminations and the detection of burrs along the edges of the slots throughout the length of the lamination stack are critical for full stator assembly. Advanced image processing algorithms were developed to obtain sub-pixel accuracy which is required to measure the slots.

The challenges in current hydrogel scaffold fabrication involve the difficulty of building adequate internal channels, poor scaffold geometry precision, and low cell viability caused by the fabrication process and polymer material properties. Stereolithography (SLA) stands out as a 3D printing technique distinguished by its superior production efficiency, advanced precision, and remarkable resolution in crafting intricate custom geometries. These attributes establish it as an innovative approach for templates in scaffold fabrication, potentially surpassing the fused deposition modeling (FDM)-based template strategy. Meanwhile, it exerts less shear stress on the cells compared to the direct bioprinting process. This novel strategy enables the fabrication of hydrogel vascular structure within the precision of 500 µm in both channel diameter and wall thickness.

The effect of tool traverse speed and plunge depth on temperature history, microstructure characteristics, and mechanical properties is investigated experimentally. The metallographic characterizations were examined through an optical microscope and field emission scanning electron microscopy equipped with an energy-dispersive X-ray system. Microhardness, impact, and tensile tests were carried out on the friction-stir-welded specimens. Increasing the plunge depth and reducing the traversal speed resulted in an augmentation of the peak temperature, primarily attributable to higher heat generation. Within the range of process parameters used, the tool produced complex material movement, resulting in swirl-like and vortex-intercalated features, particularly adjacent to the stir zone/workpiece interface. These vortex-like features exhibited dynamically recrystallized fine-grained microstructures. The grain size in the stir zone and the thermo-mechanically affected zone is reduced by increasing the plunge depth and decreasing the traverse speed due to enhanced dynamic recrystallization, subsequently improving the hardness and toughness values. In the stir zone, the microstructure revealed the acicular-shaped bainite ferrite in the DH36 steel and the Widmanstatten ferrite in the UNS G10080 steel. The microhardness contours revealed the uneven hardness distribution across the weld cross-section due to the microstructural heterogeneity in the dissimilar steels. The maximum welding efficiency of 106 % and toughness of 46 J are obtained at 40 mm/min traverse speed with a plunge depth of 0.2 mm, which is attributed to sufficient heat generation and grain refinement.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":38186,"journal":{"name":"Manufacturing Letters","volume":"41 ","pages":"Pages 384-394"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142434252","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, parts made using DED are sometimes printed with a high initial surface roughness, requiring post-processing to meet application-dependent requirements. Magnetic field-assisted finishing (MAF), in which a magnetic polishing tool is manipulated by magnetic force and generates relative motion against a target surface, has been applied to smooth AM parts. An advantage of MAF is that the magnetically manipulated polishing tools can finish both external part surfaces and part interiors. In this paper, an oscillating magnetic polishing tool is proposed to smooth the inner surfaces of rectangular NASA HR-1 alloy channels made using DED. Because effective tool motion allows reduction of surface roughness and waviness, parameters that control polishing-tool motion are of great interest. This paper describes three parameters that control polishing-tool motion: number of polishing tools, magnetic field, and abrasive slurry. The effects of tool motion on the polishing characteristics are demonstrated, showing that the roughness of the interior channel surface can be reduced from several tens of micron to a sub-micron level.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":38186,"journal":{"name":"Manufacturing Letters","volume":"41 ","pages":"Pages 670-678"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142434357","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
