JEC Europe 2012 – The development of repair procedures for composite structures is becoming a major industrial issue. Classical machining processes using hand-held tools offer high adaptability but ...

A high-tech, precision, water jet milling control system which could transform the manufacture of complex aerospace, optical and biomedical structures and devices is being developed by an ...

As the title suggests loose or embedded abrasive materials are employed to machine away small fragments of a material. In brittle materials such as engineering ceramics, hard abrasive grains are ...

Abrasive cutting is one option available to the industry for severing platforms during decommission operations. This type of cutting involves injecting abrasive materials into a water jet to wear away ...

1. When cutting under 0.100-inch thick material, little is gained by using medium (50 hp) or large (60 to 80 hp) cutting heads. Use a small parameter combination (25 hp) and consider multiple heads to ...
