Taking images of tiny structures within cells is tricky business. One technique, cryogenic electron tomography (cryoET), ...

Chatter, a self‐excited vibration phenomenon, poses a significant challenge in milling operations by impairing surface finish, reducing tool life and potentially causing machine damage. Recent ...

Materials in the nanometer range have been produced for several decades. Carbon Black, for example, has been used in tires since 1930. Today, the production capabilities for specially designed ...

Wet bead milling is used to produce nanoparticle suspensions at industrial scales. Continuous monitoring of particle size during comminution would allow real-time end-point determination and critical ...

Bioactive compounds of cereals are concentrated in the peripheral layers of the grains (bran) but most of them have a low bio-accessibility. In the HEALTHGRAIN project of the EU, new tools for process ...

What is Focused Ion Beam Milling? Focused ion beam (FIB) milling is a nanofabrication technique that uses a focused beam of ions to precisely mill, etch, or deposit materials at the nanoscale. It ...

Milling is a popular and effective top-down process utilized in the production of glass powders, with particle sizes ranging in size from the nanoscale to microns. This article explores a range of ...

It’s easy to assume that not much has changed with face mills for a while. There’s been so much attention on other milling processes over the last few years, and face mills, or shell mills, were ...

Fixing flaws introduced during the machining of large components used in the aircraft and heavy equipment industries can be time-consuming for manufacturers – and costly if they must scrap the flawed ...

Siemens used this test part to demonstrate new state-of-the-art milling techniques. It is made of tool steel hardened to 54 HRC and was machined on a Micron HPM 800U machining center. Something most ...
