A Hydraulically-Actuated Reconfigurable Tool for Flexible Fabrication: Implementation and Control
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An automatically reconfigurable discrete tool (matrix of pins) has been developed and demonstrated for sheet metal part forming and composite part molding in the aerospace industry. A GUI-based ...
Structural Modeling of Profiled Edge Laminae (PEL) Tools
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Profiled Edge Laminae (PEL) tooling is a thick-layer Rapid Tooling (RT) method that involves assembling an array of laminae—each having a uniquely profiled and beveled top edge—together in a ...
Development of a Computer-Aided Manufacturing System for Profiled Edge Lamination Tooling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Profiled Edge Lamination (PEL) tooling is a promising Rapid Tooling (RT) method involving the assembly of an array of laminations whose top edges are simultaneously profiled and beveled based ...
