The two basic cutting tool types used in metalworking are the single-point and multi-point designs. Fundamentally, they are similar. By grouping a number of single point tools in a circular holder, ...

Dynamic light scattering (DLS) is a technique used for particle sizing of samples, typically in the sub-micron range. The technique measures the time-dependent fluctuations in the intensity 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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

The pharmaceutical manufacturing platforms of fluid-bed granulation and milling are widely used to modify particle size. However, the adoption of process analytical technology to monitor and control ...

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 ...

The description of the equipment and process may not reveal the significant role that the asphalt milling machine plays in road construction, but it is key. The asphalt milling machine — also known as ...

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 ...

The transition to real-time visibility of production data in a food manufacturing environment can be an arduous task. But a supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) platform is laying the ...
