Innovative 3D printing inspired by lobster

Innovative 3D printing inspired by lobster

Engineers from the Viterbi School of engineering at the University of Southern California (USC) are using lobster inspired 3D printed armor to prevent sports injuries. This lobster like printed armor may be very effective in preventing chronic traumatic encephalopathy. Both lobster and skinned shrimp have shells based on chitosan. The structural fibers of these shells are spirally aligned, and these spirals are constantly rotating. This fiber alignment makes it difficult for small cracks to expand into larger cracks, making it difficult for lobsters to decompose. Inspired by this, researchers found that lobster shell is an excellent model for protective body…

How to match the cutting tool with the machine tool

How to match the cutting tool with the machine tool

As a tool directly or indirectly installed on the machine tool to complete the workpiece processing task, we must consider two applicability and one matching. That is, it is applicable to the selected machine tool, the selected workpiece, the processing task and the matching with the machine tool. However, this paper mainly discusses how to grasp the matching between the tool and the machine tool from the matching of the tool. When it comes to the matching of tools and machine tools, you may first think of the matching of shapes and dimensions. Indeed, the matching of the shape and…

How to do stainless steel stamping wrinkle?

How to do stainless steel stamping wrinkle?

Cause of stainless steel wrinkling: when the metal flows inward through the tensile ring in a radial manner, the compression force may cause wrinkling, and the clamp will prevent the occurrence of such wrinkling. If the metal flows unevenly or without the support of the stretching ring, wrinkles will begin to occur. Thin materials require more fixing force than thick materials. How to control the fixing force in stainless steel stamping process? The fixing force of stamping parts can be controlled by many methods. First, use the fixing pad with relatively flat surface. When the metal flows under the fixing…

How to choose crushing machinery?

How to choose crushing machinery?

Our common crushers and pulverizers belong to crushing machines, which are machines that use mechanical force to crush solid materials and turn them into small pieces, fine powder or powder. Powder flour, crushed ore, ground pigment, dye, cement raw materials, clinker, etc. all need to use grinding machinery. So what grinding machinery should be selected for different purposes? Here, the quick screen editor will briefly introduce how the crushing machinery is classified. Air mill Steam, air or other gases are injected into the engine body at a certain pressure to generate high-speed rotating vortex. The material particles in the machine…

Four forging methods of oil-saving, durable and beautiful aluminum wheel hub

Four forging methods of oil-saving, durable and beautiful aluminum wheel hub

Conventional forging Forging is one of the early forming processes for aluminum wheel hubs. Forged aluminum wheel hub has the advantages of high strength, good corrosion resistance, accurate size and small processing volume. Generally, its weight is only equivalent to 1 / 2 or less of the steel wheel of the same size. The grain flow direction of forged aluminum hub is consistent with the stress direction, and its strength, toughness and fatigue strength are significantly better than that of cast aluminum hub. At the same time, the performance has good reproducibility, and almost every hub has the same mechanical…
