Correlation Between XRD Analysis and Mechanical Characterization Using Lens Manufactured Specimens Based on IoT Sensors
Abstract: The advent of the Internet of Things (IoT) has enabled the seamless integration of sensors into the manufacturing process, facilitating the collection of real-time data for analysis and optimization. The correlation between X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and mechanical characterization is investigated using specimens manufactured through the Laser Engineered Net Shaping (LENS) technique. The study focuses on three different materials: brass, SS202, and SS304. XRD analysis is employed to determine the …

Mechanical Properties of Composites Made from Waste PET and Coconut Husk Fibres Using an Innovative Method
Abstract: The main purpose of this study was to develop a composite material based on two waste products, namely, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles and coconut husk fibres using a simple innovative method to improve its mechanical properties. The fibres, after extraction, were treated with 5 wt% NaOH. They were then coated with a thin layer of polyester resin. The composite specimens were then manufactured in an industrial furnace. The shredded PET …

Dimensional Investigation of Material Extrusion Based AM Part
Abstract: Now a day’s additive manufacturing plays a vital role in industrial application. Material Extrusion based 3D printed parts often face inherent limitations in quality, such as geometric inaccuracies, surface roughness, and reduced strength, especially when compared to those made through traditional or more refined manufacturing methods. However, this system provides notable advantages for producing parts from materials like ABS by optimizing critical material extrusion based AM machine process parameters, such …
