Jean-Pierre Kruth,Ludo Froyen,J. Van Vaerenbergh,Peter Mercelis,Marleen Rombouts,Bert Lauwers +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a mixture of different types of particles (Fe, Ni, Cu and Fe3P) specially developed for selective laser sintering (SLS) is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Advancing EDM through fundamental insight into the process
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show the prospects of electrical discharge machining (EDM) technology by interrelating recent achievements in fundamental studies on EDM with newly developed advanced application technologies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hybrid processes in manufacturing
TL;DR: Hybrid manufacturing processes are based on the simultaneous and controlled interaction of process mechanisms and/or energy sources/tools having a significant effect on the process performance as discussed by the authors, which can have a large influence on the processing/manufacturing characteristics resulting in higher machinability, reductions of process forces and tool wear.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation of material removal mechanisms in EDM of composite ceramic materials
TL;DR: In this article, a detailed investigation of the material removal mechanisms of some commercially available electrical conductive ceramic materials through analysis of the debris and the surface/sub-surface quality is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct Selective Laser Sintering of Hard Metal Powders: Experimental Study and Simulation
TL;DR: In this article, the experimental study and simulation of direct selective laser sintering of tungsten carbide-cobalt (WC-Co) powders are presented.
