The poor tribological property profile of Inconel 718 can be significantly improved through a boriding process. In this study, the possibility of combining a coating process with boriding technology and in situ heat treatment was investigated. Layers of Inconel 718 were deposited to an austenitic stainless steel using wire-based electron beam cladding (EBC) and subsequently subjected to boriding. Based on results from annealing experiments, boriding treatments were performed at various temperature/time regimens with the aim of inducing in situ age hardening during boriding. The focus was on the investigation of the influence of the temperature/time regime during boriding on the microstructure and hardness, as well as examining the wear and corrosion behavior of the resulting borided layers. The results showed that the desired target hardness range was achieved after in situ aging with all boriding variants. Furthermore, it was demonstrated that boriding significantly improved the wear resistance but decreased corrosion resistance.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":56011,"journal":{"name":"CIRP Journal of Manufacturing Science and Technology","volume":"53 ","pages":"Pages 118-127"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1755581724001160/pdfft?md5=bee02b477fd7939d8dc46626229f2d31&pid=1-s2.0-S1755581724001160-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141961423","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A rough assessment of the product’s general condition and the dedicated inspection of individual product features or defects is necessary to identify the typically unknown product variant and assess the reusability of a used product and its components. Therefore, a system for automated visual inspection must be flexible and runtime-adaptive, as defects to be inspected in detail may occur anywhere on the product. In the present work, this problem is framed as a view planning problem solved by means of supervised learning and reinforcement learning using a specially developed simulation environment. Three variants of neural networks (PointNet, PointNet++, and Point Completion Network) are compared in the supervised learning case, whereas a deep learning SAC algorithm using the Point Completion Network as network structure is evaluated in the reinforcement learning case. Considering the specific boundary conditions prevailing in remanufacturing, the results are obtained from the use case of electric starter motor remanufacturing. The results show that supervised learning and reinforcement learning are suitable for determining the poses of an acquisition system at system runtime to react to an initially unknown inspection task.

Despite extensive experimental and analytical studies, the mechanisms of chip formation under consideration of a cutting fluid are still not entirely understood. Due to fluid-structure interaction, simulating wet cutting processes for an extended duration has not been feasible. The primary objective of this study is to utilize a simulation approach to provide additional information about the wet chip formation process in contrast to measurement methods, with a view to drawing conclusions. As methodology the Finite-Pointset-Method (FPM) is employed to simulate the chip formation process for dry, flood and specifically high-pressure cooling conditions during machining of carbon steel C45 as well as nickel-based alloy Inconel 718. Due to the increased relative velocity between workpiece and cutting fluid with the use of high-pressure cooling compared to flood cooling, numerical stability issues are present. Initially, the modeling approach to handle high-pressure cooling conditions is described and validated by an impact test. Subsequently the cutting simulation model is presented in detail and verified by measurements. The simulation results of stress, temperature and plastic strain rate fields are used to elucidate the observed discrepancies between various cutting fluid strategies in detail. These findings suggest explanations for the high efficiency of high-pressure cooling such as a decline of hydrostatic stresses or activation of ductile damaging.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":56011,"journal":{"name":"CIRP Journal of Manufacturing Science and Technology","volume":"53 ","pages":"Pages 103-117"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1755581724001147/pdfft?md5=9973021ae3661fe6b56b6befffee4679&pid=1-s2.0-S1755581724001147-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141961422","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the multi-variety and low-volume electroplating production, it is known that the task loading sequence and hoist scheduling are coupled with each other, and they codetermine the production efficiency, while all the existing scheduling methods consider them separately, and thus the optimal production schemes become unavailable. Therefore, this paper develops a Task sequence-Hoist scheduling Coupled Optimization (THCO) model which simultaneously considers the requirements and practical constrains of task sequence and hoist scheduling, having an optimization objective of minimizing the maximum completion time. For this model, a double-layer code is developed and an Improved Salp Swarm Algorithm (ISSA) is developed by introducing three improvement strategies: the random spare strategy which is used to increase the population diversity, the nonlinear adaptive weight strategy which is used to balance the exploration and exploitation capacities, and a golden sine algorithm which is used to improve the convergence rate. Experiments based on 23 benchmark functions are then conducted. The obtained results show that ISSA has better convergence and solving quality than existing algorithms. Furthermore, several production cases prove that THCO can generate production schemes that better meet the requirements of production lines.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":56011,"journal":{"name":"CIRP Journal of Manufacturing Science and Technology","volume":"53 ","pages":"Pages 34-47"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141607968","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among the prevalent post-processing techniques, the acoustic cavitation-based surface finishing technique has recently emerged. Despite a considerable amount of focused research on the material removal mechanisms of this technique, less attention has been devoted to addressing its limitations associated with enhancing the process capability towards achieving a better surface finish. The driving force behind the acoustic cavitation technique is the bubble implosion through cavitation streaming, and the cessation of the acoustic cavitation streaming beyond a certain length is the main limitation. It has restrained the process capability towards finishing both external and internal surfaces. Hence, this research aims to unravel novel ways of employing the acoustic cavitation-generating parameters and achieving better-quality surface finishing of additively manufactured (AM) components. A study has been conducted on different AM materials, including Inconel 625 and aluminum alloy, by introducing various methods associated with acoustic amplitude, working mediums, temperature, and external vibration. The results reveal a significant reduction in average surface roughness for both materials. The topographical and morphological observations confirm the qualitative improvement on the surfaces. In addition, the conical bubble structures that frame the acoustic cavitation streaming are elucidated by implementing high-speed imaging techniques, and their enhancement at different parametric conditions is delineated.
