SOFTWARE FOR DRILLING TOOL DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING
2007
Abstract The paper presents a software that allows the design and manufacturing of cutting tools for boring. The methodology contains several steps that can be taken only by using the software modules. The main stages are the geometrical and dimensional design of the cutting tool, the design and generation of the abrasive profiled disks, the management of abrasive disks and disk package, the generation of the manufacturing technology, the verification of the cutting tool using virtual simulation, testing the manufacturing process using virtual simulation, generating the CNC files and finally the transmission of the CNC files in real time to the CNC machine tool so that the tools can be manu…
Stealth dicing with Bessel beams and beyond
2016
In the context of laser cutting of transparent materials, we investigate glass cleaving with Bessel beams and report that a modification of the beam with 3 main lobes drastically enhances cleavability and reduces defects.
Researches Regarding Optimizing the Accuracy of CNC Laser Cutting Machines
2015
The experimental researches presented in this paper are aimed to improve the manufacturing accuracy of a contouring machine together with an approach to eliminate the errors which lead to a less precise part after machining.In order to eliminate the errors, the machine's feed drives were tuned leading to a more precise part. In order to validate the proposed approach, the accuracy of the machine was tested before and after the tuning process.
Non-Waste Technology for Utilization of Tree Branches
2022
The trees (e.g., fruit or decorative) growing on the homestead plots of private households provide opportunities for sustainable biomass obtained from pruned branches every year. Profitable production of fuel material requires high-performance equipment and methods by which wood chips can be produced at low cost. The practice of chopping tree branches shows that not all chopping machines are suitable for use on homestead plots. This research gives the five-year test results of a developed and patented tree branch chopping machine under special operating conditions. The machine was tested under the conditions of the homestead plot of a private household in the Poltava region, and the enginee…
Split-Delivery Capacitated Arc-Routing Problem: Lower Bound and Metaheuristic
2010
International audience; This paper proposes lower and upper bounds for the split-delivery capacitated arc-routing problem (SDCARP), a variant of the capacitated arc-routing problem in which an edge can be serviced by several vehicles. Recent papers on related problems in node routing have shown that this policy can bring significant savings. It is also more realistic in applications such as urban refuse collection, where a vehicle can become full in the middle of a street segment. This work presents the first lower bound for the SDCARP, computed with a cutting plane algorithm and an evolutionary local search reinforced by a multistart procedure and a variable neighborhood descent. Tests on …
Determination of temperature distribution in the cutting zone using hybrid analytical-FEM technique
2006
Abstract In this study, the temperature distribution in the cutting zone was determined by integrating thermal analytical and simulation models of orthogonal cutting process with uncoated and coated carbide tools. Primarily, 2D FEM simulations were run to provide numerical solutions of temperatures occurring at different points through the chip/tool contact region and the coating/substrate boundary under defined cutting conditions. In addition, an analytical model for heat transfer in the cutting tool and its partitioning, proposed in References [W. Grzesik, P. Nieslony, Physics based modelling of interface temperatures in machining with multilayer coated tools at moderate cutting speeds, I…
Characterisation of the volatile fraction of aromatic caramel using heart-cutting multidimensional gas chromatography
2014
The first aim of our study was to improve characterisation of the volatile fraction of aromatic caramel by applying heart-cutting multidimensional gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry and olfactometry (MDGC-MS-O) on targeted odorant fractions. The second aim was to compare the volatile composition of two caramel samples, which differed in terms of their carbohydrate composition and cooking process. MDGC analyses enabled identification of 37 compounds (17 with the addition of pure standard) in the burnt sugar caramel, 20 of which were reported for the first time in caramel. Fifteen compounds were identified as odour-active and described using a range of attributes such as floral, …
TECHNOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVES REGARDING THE APPLICATION OF THE CONTACT BREAKING ELECTRICAL DISCHARGE MACHINING PROCESS USING AS ELECTRODE-TOOL - METAL B…
2020
The scientific paper presents the most important aspects of theoretical and practical nature regarding the possibilities of processing metallic materials using the contact breaking electrical discharge machining with transfer object-metal band. The exposed research is based on the experience gained over the years by a team of Romanian researchers and university professors who managed to patent a metal material cutting plant using the process of contact breaking electrical discharge machining with transfer object-metal band. The scientific paper presents a radiography of some studies and research carried out over the years in the previous field presented.
Trends in Metal Cutting Theory and Practice
2017
This chapter provides the state-of-the-art manufacturing systems that utilize various machining technologies in different manufacturing sectors. It highlights the challenges of the 21st-century manufacturing environment and characterizes numerous driven factors in modern machining technologies. They include more-established technologies, such as High-Speed Machining/Cutting, High-Performance Machining/Cutting, High-Efficiency Machining or currently developed ones, such as resource- and energy-efficient (generally sustainable) and hybrid machining. Practical examples and charts that document their importance in modern manufacturing are provided. Finally, some important future trends are over…
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and micropropagation of high value crops
2002
Micropropagation has established its position as a way of propagating large numbers of uniform plants. For some plant species that are difficult to propagate by seeds or by conventional cuttings, this technique provides the only possible way of producing high quality plants. Micropropagation is widely used for propagation of high value crops like ornamentals, fruits, vegetables, plantation crops and spices (Vestberg and Estaun 1994). The micropropagation industry was growing fast in Europe up to 1992 (O’Riordain 1992) but after that the micropropagation industry seems to have stabilized its position although a slight increase in production of microplants was still recorded for the period 19…
