International Metalworking News - Middle East & Af - July 2013

Bu konuda

One of the most important articles in this issue of International Metalworking News- Middle East & Africa is “Machining Nickelbased High-Temperature Alloy.” The basic assumption in machining is that cutting high-strength materials takes higher-strength tools. Nickel-based alloys used in gas and steam turbines are among the world’s strongest materials developed to allow power plants to run at higher temperatures. This not only provides power to those that need it, it increases plant efficiency and eliminates harmful emissions. Superalloys come into play in turbine blades that require high-strength, high-temperature creep resistance, phase stability, and resistance to oxidation and corrosion.
Of course, we do have editorials that can help you better your job; for most, that means sharpening your metalworking development skills. This month’s Laser Technologies/Welding Design & Fabrication section, features “Welding Robots for Today’s Flexible Needs.” The auto industry has changed at a blistering pace. Where once it was common to build one car on one line, manufacturers are now moving to a flexible production concept where multiple cars can be produced on the same line. The GateFramer robotic car body framing system builds from ABB provides the industry with flexible, accurate, expandable and fast solution that today’s car manufacturers demand; resulting in less investment over the lifetime of the system.
One final note, I encourage you to take a little time to let us know the products and technologies you would like to see in the magazine, and topics related to your day-to-day metalworking activities, so you can get an idea of what else is out there that you would like to try out.
