Composite metal foams (CMFs) are intriguing materials, offering several big advantages over traditional solid metal. And while the welding of CMFs usually poses some challenges, it has now been been ...

For over 30 years, Sinergo has developed special electromagnetic induction machines. In the last 10 years, the focus has been on the technique of heating composite materials by means of ...

The SIDEFFECT project aims to develop and evaluate dynamic induction welding for thermoplastic fuselage in a low cost and high speed context. The final demonstrator integrates the geometric ...

Unlike composites made with a thermoset matrix, thermoplastic composites (TPCs) require neither complex chemical reactions nor lengthy curing processes. Thermoplastic prepregs require no refrigeration ...

Researchers at North Carolina State University have now identified a welding technique that can be used to join composite metal foam (CMF) components together without impairing the properties that ...

Composite metal foams (CMFs) are foams that consist of hollow, metallic spheres – made of materials such as stainless steel or titanium – embedded in a metallic matrix made of steel, titanium, ...

This blog gives an update to the Clean Sky 2 Multifunctional Fuselage Demonstrator (MFFD), which has changed somewhat from my last writing in 2018. One of three large fuselage demonstrators to be ...

Miron Construction used Miller Electric's ProHeat 35 to preheat structural welds at the Lambeau Field Expansion for the Green Bay Packers. Miron used the ProHeat 35 throughout the project - instead of ...
