A new MIT-developed heat treatment transforms the microscopic structure of 3D-printed metals, making the materials stronger and more resilient in extreme thermal environments. The technique could make it possible to 3D print high-performance blades and vanes for power-generating gas turbines and jet engines.
To meet growing demand from automakers for its self-piercing rivets and tools, Atlas Copco Industrial Assembly Solutions installed an on-site nitrogen generation system that feeds its hardening operation and overcomes dependence on vendor-delivered supply of the gas.
A team of scientists have developed a new type of steel that is ultra-strong yet stretchable, potentially overcoming a tough challenge in steelmaking. According to the research team, a piece of the steel the size of a fingernail can bear the weight of a 2-metric-ton car without fracturing and be stretched by 18-25%.
Hydro and World Wide Wind AS will explore the use of aluminum in the renewable wind industry. The Norwegian companies are partnering up to develop floating wind turbines with a design specifically meant for offshore conditions. The goal is to use aluminum in the construction.
America Makes announced the winners of two recent project calls, the 2022 Rapid Innovation Call (RIC) and the Steel Wire-Arc Additive Heat Treatment (SWAAHT) project call. Winning proposals address the challenges of the domestic supply chain and offer progressive solutions.
United Airlines placed an order with Boeing for 100 787 airplanes, with the option to purchase 100 more. The deal is the largest 787 Dreamliner order in Boeing history.
Albemarle Corp. acquired a location in Charlotte, N.C., where it will invest at least $180 million to establish a facility designed for novel materials research, advanced process development and acceleration of next-generation lithium products to market.
The historic Artemis I mission took flight November 16 after months of anticipation. The journey will send an uncrewed spacecraft around the moon, paving the way for NASA to return astronauts to the lunar surface.
Archer Aviation Inc., a provider of electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, will locate its manufacturing facility in Covington, Ga. The company plans to invest $118 million to build a 350,000-square-foot plant capable of producing up to 650 aircraft per year.
Two teams of scientists manufactured – in a laboratory – a material that does not naturally exist on the planet. Until now, it has only been found in meteorites.
