Presentation Transcript

  1. Advanced Manufacturing Center National resource for evaluating, validating, and transferring advanced technologies to manufacturers. • Focus • 5-axis Machining • Additive Manufacturing • Laser Processing • Non-contact Inspection • Machining Optimization

  2. Machining Applications • Capabilities • Precision Machining • Simultaneous 5-axis • Combined Mill/Turn • Methods Evaluation • Process Development • Technology Transfer • EDM (wire & sinker) • Machining Aerospace Alloys

  3. Machining Optimization Increase capacity with existing equipment • Increased material removal rate • 25 – 70% in aerospace alloys • Longer tool life • 3 – 12X increase • Less power consumed • Lower kWh & reduced peaks • Favorable ROI • Payback in 3 – 11 months • Funding available to help implementation • Innovative Technology Insertion (ITI) • program (CT state subsidy) Lower operating cost Quote jobs more aggressively

  4. Laser Applications Capabilities • Ablation • Welding • Cladding • Advanced machining • Special solutions • Turnkey systems • Additive manufacturing • Process development • Materials development • Coating removal • Cutting • Drilling

  5. Laser Additive Manufacturing Laser-based analysis and process development for new part builds and refurbishing/repairing components • Focus • Cost savings • Lead time reduction for new parts • Shortened turnaround time for repairs • Enable build of complex geometries • Programs • U.S. Air Force Advanced Manufacturing • U.S. Dept. of Energy / ARPA-E (Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy) • Partnerships with private sector to solve advanced manufacturing challenges Laser Additive Manufacturing at CCAT AMC

  6. Non-contact Inspection Structured Light Scanning Process Scan Align Views Merge & Compare to CAD Reverse Engineering Process • Advantages/Benefits • No-touch programming • Fast data acquisition • Digitize objects in high detail • Minimal fixturing • Automated report generation • Accuracy • +/- .0005 inches Parametric Model Triangulate and Region Group Point Cloud Data
