The two most common post-processing operations used in the CNC machining manufacturing process are heat treatments (annealing, case hardening) and surface treatments (bead blasting, powder coating…).

Surface roughness is a numerical scale of the texture of a surface that is not dependent on tactile or visual sensation. Surface irregularities on materials and parts can be created intentionally in ...

Mean roughness can easily be captured through a few profiles for standard manufacturing processes that leave a single texture orientation. Both stylus profiling and areal measurements are valid if a ...

Measuring Surface Roughness. If there’s a potential problem during the machining process, the part’s surface finish is likely to provide an early clue.

Here we discuss three processes that can be used for machining a precise hole in custom aluminium parts – peck drilling, wire electrical discharge machining, and laser cutting. These processes along ...

Fotec integrates AM into industrial process chains - automating post-processing using 'Hirtising', a combination of processes.

For the targeted surface finishing of femur components in its new plant in Malaysia, Smith+Nephew is using two manufacturing cells, each with three Rösler R 6/1000 SF drag finishers. Two fully ...
