The January 2020 issue of Industrial Heating includes an Editorial on the Tech, Tech and More Tech, A Review of Lubricant Removal Systems and the Latest Technology, and much more.
A hot runner or hot manifold system is an assembly of a mold, heaters, controller and temperature-sensing components working together to manufacture the next plastic pen or automotive part.
First variations of hot runner systems started appearing in manufacturing in the mid-20th century but did not become standard in the industry until the 1980s, driven by the need for consistent quality and productivity improvements.
Over the years, the heat-treatment industry has seen a number of truly innovative technology advancements – the oxygen probe and the adaptation of process simulators for recipe development being perhaps the most impactful to date.
Now the heat-treat world is seeing another groundbreaking technological advancement, the introduction of the next generation of integral-quench furnaces.
A review of some frequently asked questions (FAQs) about the commercial testing of forgings can help you learn about the types of destructive and nondestructive tests and which ones are necessary for your products.
Whether a component is produced through binder-jet additive manufacturing, metal injection molding or conventional press and sintering, lubricant removal continues to be one of the most common issues in sintering.
Retrogression heat treatment and re-aging (RRA) is used for retaining optimal strength in aluminum alloys such as 7075-T6 while avoiding stress corrosion cracking and for improving formability of aluminum components such as extrusions.
