From the GD&T Basics Team: Functional Gaging & CMMs
"Is functional gaging only used if there is no access to a CMM?" Jason discusses the benefits and drawbacks of both inspection methods in answer to this student's question.
Machina Labs is using an incremental sheet forming technique, which they call Roboforming, to form sheet metal by basically pinching it in very small incremental deformations. Check out this video to learn about their technique and to see the intricate designs that they can manufacture.
We are excited to showcase our client, Redwire, this week! Redwire is a global leader in mission critical space solutions and high reliability components for the next generation space economy, with valuable intellectual property for solar power generation, in-space 3D printing and manufacturing, space-based biotechnology, and much more. They recently 3D bioprinted the first human knee meniscus on orbit on the International Space Station (ISS).
CNC Machining and Thermal Expansion go hand in hand. In this video from Titans of CNC, learn how to compensate for thermal expansion and the best practices to make sure you stay true to print!
