Today, we can inform you of a major development in base-metal thermocouple technology that will further enhance and strengthen the position of type K and N thermocouples in industry while also increasing the possible temperature range of reliable operation for these industrial sensors.

Eddy current technology is one of the primary methods used for continuous in-line heat-treatment validation.

Many factors should be considered when choosing a system for cooling an induction process, including cost, space availability, existing utilities, energy and water usage, equipment location, potential freezing, reliability, and maintenance. 

Software is an integral part of temperature-profiling technology, covering all process aspects from sensor connection, calibration, data analysis and report generation. Because profiling software is essential to effective profiling performance, software selection is important. This article will outline key considerations during the selection process.

Additive-manufacturing (AM) technologies have drawn a lot of attention and investment from the manufacturing community in recent years. This article presents an overview of AM processes, including their economic and operational advantages and constraints.

Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) researchers are answering the need for heat-tolerant materials by developing a new way to strengthen metals using oxide particles.

Scientists with high-performance computing (HPC) modeling, simulation and visualization capabilities at the Department of Energy's national laboratories are partnering with U.S. industries to optimize blast furnaces in order to reduce emissions and energy use.

Metal enhancement has long played a critical role in manufacturing. As engineers strive to improve components, surface treatments ensure part performance keeps up with design standards.

Case depth can now be measured quickly and accurately in less than a minute without time-consuming sample preparation using continuous-acquisition testing.

By understanding the common signs of refractory failure, engineers can carry out maintenance to both fix a problem and avoid it in the future. In this article, SK Energy and Morgan Advanced Materials highlight seven signs to look out for.
