A new way to 3D-print metals makes the materials stronger and more resilient in extreme thermal environments. The technique could lead to 3D printed high-performance blades and vanes for gas turbines ...

A lot of colloquial words that we might use when describing something’s durability take on extremely specific meanings when a materials scientist or blacksmith uses them. Things like “strength”, ...

Many industrial processes involve the heat treatment of materials, such as metals, plastics, and composites. Commonly used heat transfer fluids such as water, ethylene glycol, and oils exhibit ...

Get ready to reconsider process strategies about the heat-treating of metals -- things like brazing, carburizing, hardening and sintering. A new approach, based on microwave-absorbing plasma, ...

While 3D printing technology does allow complex metal parts to be produced efficiently, such items often deform when stressed and heated. That may soon no longer be the case, however, thanks to a new ...

Metal 3D printed elements typically always undergo thermal treatment after their fabrication. It reduces the internal stresses formed during manufacturing and modifies the morphology of the element.

Heat treatment furnaces provide a controlled environment to perform specific heat treatment processes precisely and consistently. They enable uniform heating, precise temperature control, and ...

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 ...
