Selective Laser Sintering of PEEK
Sensors for Precision Force-Adaptive Grinding Systems
This program follows a three-day journey where you'll see how to champion a setup reduction event, measure your current methods, identify time elements behind setup, and learn what it takes to change and improve new methods.
SFPM & RPM = High Speed Machining
The Sheet Metal Bending segment concentrates mainly on the terms defining a bend, such as the neutral axis, bend allowance, bend radius, and springback, and focuses on the primary bending machine - the press brake. Various examples of press brake dies, gaging, and bending operations, such as air bending, and bottom bending, are shown, as well as, a segment on folding technology.
Sheet Metal Bending in the 21st Century
This program examines two of the oldest manufacturing processes: shearing and bending. Shearing is the cutting of sheet metal by means of two opposing blades. It is used to cut large sheets of material into smaller more manageable sections. Bending is the creation of three-dimensional shapes out of two-dimensional material, and is a fast, economical way to produce an endless variety of parts from sheet metal and plate.

Stamping dies are the tools that shape and cut sheet metal parts. They are commonly developed using computer-aided design (CAD) software and analytical programs to create and prove-out highly accurate, unambiguous designs.
