One of the common faults in turning is vibration. When the lathe vibrates, the normal cutting process of the process system is disturbed and destroyed, which not only seriously worsens the machining surface quality, but also shortens the service life of the machine tool and cutting tool. Therefo

When machining parts, some designs are easier to produce than others, so the machinability of different features is an important consideration to keep in mind. Undercut is a feature that standard end mills cannot achieve. For this reason, the design of parts with undercut is often difficult, and

Aluminum is the most widely used and widely used metal material in non-ferrous metals, and its application range is still expanding. There are many kinds of aluminum products produced with aluminum materials. According to statistics, there are more than 700000 kinds of aluminum products. From th

Many design choices come down to material, quantity and complexity. These are the three key features of a part, which determine which manufacturing process is most suitable for the part. When you hear the word “over engineering”, you may think of the overly complex products we have a

CNC machining is a good way to realize when you want to create prototypes or mass produce end-use products. But the processing cost is often the main reason why people stop. There are several things that affect the cost of CNC parts, including materials, design, surface treatment, quantity and t

CNC copper processing is one of the most accurate metal processing services for manufacturing copper parts in various industries. Copper has ductility, ductility, and is a good conductor of heat and electricity. These characteristics make it the right choice for CNC machining. Copper parts proce

Compared with traditional polishing, electrolytic polishing has great advantages, such as low cost, small land occupation, polishing complex workpieces, and incomparable advantages over traditional polishing. It is applied to pretreatment of metal parts before plating and finishing after plating

Electroplishing uses the workpiece to be polished as the anode, insoluble metal as the cathode, and both poles are immersed into the electrolytic cell at the same time. Through DC ionization reaction, selective anode dissolution is generated, so as to remove fine burrs on the workpiece surf

Polyoxymethylene homopolymer (POM) is a semi crystalline thermoplastic with impact resistance and wear resistance, which is widely used in various machining applications. It is favored by machinists because of its excellent material properties and high machinability. Although opaque in nature, P

Black oxide coating, also known as chemical blackening, is a kind of conversion coating, which is usually used for small and complex moving parts in applications such as gears, hydraulic blocks and tools and machine parts. This coating is unique because it can provide you with the same effect as

Electrolytic polishing uses the workpiece to be polished as the anode, insoluble metal as the cathode, and both poles are immersed into the electrolytic cell at the same time. Through DC ionization reaction, selective anode dissolution is generated, so as to remove fine burrs on the workpiece su

Gang type tooling offers fast, accurate, and cost-effective machining on Swiss-type lathes. Turret type tooling offers flexibility and easy tooling setup. Which type of tooling is the right for the job?

Material selection is vital for cost-effective machining on Swiss-type lathes. How do most common stainless steel Type 304 and its modified version Type 303 alloy compare for machinability and other properties?

Industry 4.0, the fourth industrial revolution, has begun. Manufacturing industries are going through disruptive change through digital transformation and the use of exponential technologies. The concept has received a great deal of hype in recent years, yet remains an abstract ide

While prototype circuit boards are used in everything from cell phones to computer monitors, to light switches and televisions, there is a belief that PCB fabrication is standard and straightforward. In fact, this is untrue, as the PCB assembly process is just as versatile as the uses for the boa

We already know that prototype printed circuit boards are versatile pieces of technology, and what really is important is that you are able to find a PCB manufacturer that you can trust. So here is our second installment of what to look for in a PCB manufacturer. 5. Environmentally Responsible Co

A prototype printed circuit board is an electronic circuit that can be used for a variety of reasons. A typical PCB layout consists of up to 36 layers, and the most simple prototype PCBs contain copper tracks that interconnect with each other on only one of its surfaces, known as 1 layer PCB. Con

If you’re familiar with the purpose of prototype printed circuit boards or PCB fabrication, you probably know how commonplace and necessary they are in today’s technologically dependent world. But even though printed circuit boards are found in almost every device we use on a daily ba
