Release Date: 2026-04-10 In the high-stakes world of aerospace engineering, every gram of weight and every hour of production time matters. Traditional manufacturing methods for complex parts like aero-engine casings—often involving forging a massive block of expensive titanium and then machining away up to 90% of it—are incredibly wasteful and slow. A new technical report
Release Date: 2026-04-10 In the demanding realm of aerospace engineering, where performance at extreme temperatures is non-negotiable, nickel-based superalloys like GH4169 (the Chinese equivalent of Inconel 718) are the material of choice for critical hot-section components. However, their exceptional strength and heat resistance come at a cost: they are notoriously difficult and expensive to machine. A new
Release Date: 2026-04-10 Selective Laser Melting (SLM), as a high-precision metal additive manufacturing technology, is gradually expanding from titanium alloys and superalloys to a wider range of engineering alloys. A recent study published in Chinese Journal of Lasers systematically investigated the effects of SLM process parameters on the microstructure and mechanical properties of 24CrNiMo alloy steel (a critical material
