Metal forming (engineering) for a large workpiece through stamping/molding process depends on many factors/variables such as the material of such workpiece, mold, pressure force and others. With smart process monitoring, the press hardening of lightweight parts can be seamlessly traced and documented. The process of press hardening, also referred to as hot stamping in the […]
In October of 1997, Andy Green drove his Thrust SSC car on a one mile track in the Black Rock Desert to set the current official world land-speed record of 763 miles per hour. In June of 2017, Lewis Hamilton reached a top speed of 197 miles per hour in winning the Canadian Grand Prix […]
Article by TRUMPF Ltd. The TruPunch 1000 (S19) is a new compact entry-level machine that can be expanded into an equally space saving TruMatic 1000 fiber punch laser machine, allowing sheet metal processors to upgrade their machine to keep pace with their growing business. A 3 kilowatt TruDisk solid-state laser can be connected to convert the TruPunch 1000 (S19) punching machine into […]
High powers can be achieved at lower costs by selecting optical fiber that maximizes absorption. However, excellent beam quality with high power and the best cost performance requires understanding choices among extra-large-formats. Fiber lasers and amplifiers have improved vastly over the past decade as improvements in active and passive fibers, diodes, and various fiber-optic components […]
“Advance Pressbrake improve a lot, have you prepare you & your factory ready?” In these 30 years the change of Press Brake machine may not change much, but tooling & software develop quite a lot for beauty output after press, and genius software that help or nearly replace people job. Hacobend 3D: The fastest offline […]
When Industry 4.0 has become the biggest trend in technology and the direction of industrial development which many leading entrepreneurs in many companies are paying attention so that their factory will become Smart Factory, it is no surprise that software and automation have a significant role in every section of the industry. Delivering quality at short notice […]
Proponents of laser beam welding (LBW) and electron beam welding (EBW) each pronounce the singular praises of their favored technology, but often the best solution for a customer is to use both technologies together. Both processes are well suited to joining components with complex geometries, and capable of meeting the most stringent demands for metallurgical […]
Projects in the aerospace industry require complex technology and complete precision. Not only is this sector responsible for producing aircraft engines, the aircraft themselves, and related parts; but also military solutions (like guided missiles), scientific developments (like space vehicles), and other components that make up much of our modern world. As an industry with no […]
Sheet metal fabricators need to look for cost savings in every aspect of business including scrap reduction and energy savings. As sheet metal shops examine new ways to reduce costs, recently released new technology can save money in ways that previously were not possible. Skeleton removal and energy savings may not have the cachet that […]
As fiber lasers claim more and more market share in industrial applications, particularly by matching or surpassing the capabilities of more established CO2 machines, global makers are offering an innovative new player in the field. Platino 2.0 Fiber Platino 2.0 Fiber: Maximize your profit with a productive, efficient, flexible and easy to use fiber laser […]
