the applications of electrochemical machining are increasing because of increasing requests of industries for materials with high strengh and high hardness. regular ecm uses a tool with spicified profile shape that is similar to final shape of workpiece. in this reasearch a nozzle that delivers electrolyte to the machining gap is used for machining cylinderical workpieces. by moving the electro...

Purpose: In this paper, the effects of various process parameters of WEDM like pulse on time (TON), pulse off time (TOFF), gap voltage (SV), peak current (IP), wire feed (WF) and wire tension (WT) have been investigated to reveal their impact on material removal rate of hot die steel (H-11) using one variable at a time approach. The optimal set of process parameters has also been predicted to m...

also often required even in the posterior region. However, all-ceramic crowns pose some problems, including weak mechanieal properties and occurrence of cracks or pores in the erown that could ultimately lead to fracture oi' the restorationii'. Thus far, all-ceramic crowns have been fabricated by firing porcelain manuaNy onto a refractory die, or by casting or heat-pressing the cerarnics. Howev...

The main body of primary system valves discussed in this paper is made of stabilized austenitic stainless steel and are of intricate shapes & sizes. These bodies are produced through close die forging route and are manufactured first time in Indian forging shops. Finished forgings produced through three stage close die forging process are subjected to comprehensive quality assurance plan at eac...

In this paper, a new equidistant filling theory based on the level set function and corresponding numerical algorithm dynamic finite difference method were proposed. Firstly, closed curve is defined as zero-value contour of function. Then, equation, partial differential was built to get function, proposed solve Secondly, three types cross sections, simple polygon, multi-island multi-hole used t...

The making of ear mould for hearing aids is generally considered to be a safe process. However, there are a few reported cases of complications caused during mould making. We report the case of a man with 69 years age, where the process of making the mould for a hearing aid led to the perforation of the tympanic membrane and pouring of mould material into the middle ear, necessitating surgical ...

The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal condition for fabricating accurate crowns efficiently using an internet-based CAD/CAM system. The influences of three different CAD/CAM restorative materials (titanium, porcelain, and composite resin) and three different step-over scanning distances (0.01 mm, 0.11 mm, and 0.21 mm) were evaluated, and their interactive effects were carefully...

This paper presents a new approach for surface roughness (Ra) prediction during milling by using dynamometer to measure cutting forces signals and cutting conditions. End milling machining process of hardened die steel with carbide end mill, was modeled in this paper using the adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) to predict the effect of machining variables (spindle speed, feed rate an...

the price of single point diamond tools with a sharp tip is very high due to complex machining process and highly expensive machining equipments. yet, the performance is not quite satisfactory. in this paper, we have presented a very simple and cost effective machining process for the sharpening and polishing of diamond stylus using low energy reactive ion beam machining (ribm). in our method, ...
