WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - Researchers at Purdue University have developed the first system capable of searching a company's huge database of three-dimensional parts created with computer-aided design ...

The unique characteristics of lasers, such as their focusability and ability to work on a variety of materials, make them well suited for precision manufacturing. And they can be used with a wide ...

VoluMill ™ toolpaths produce a consistent material removal rate, using smooth, flowing motion to establish and maintain ideal milling conditions in any part shape. Reduced forces on the spindle and ...

One of the challenges facing precision manufacturers and their medical device manufacturing partners is the increasing feature complexity of tight-tolerance parts. These complex geometries can result ...

Arcam AB in Sweden recently patented an electron-beam melting (EBM) technique that additively builds complex parts out of titanium. The process economically builds parts at relatively low volumes. EBM ...

To determine the roles of the CAD domains of CAD and ICAD (CAD-CD and ICAD-CD), we deleted the CAD domains from mouse CAD and ICAD-L (the longer splicing variant of ICAD) and examined the ability of ...
