Hybrid manufacturing processes are based on the simultaneous and controlled interaction of
process mechanisms and/or energy sources/tools having a significant effect on the process …

Selective laser melting (SLM) is driven by the need to process near full density objects with
mechanical properties comparable to those of bulk materials. During the process the powder …

This paper aims to show the prospects of electrical discharge machining (EDM) technology
by interrelating recent achievements in fundamental studies on EDM with newly developed …

Direct selective laser sintering (SLS) technology can be used to produce 3D hard metal
functional parts from commercial available powders. Unlike conventional sintering, it does not …

Ceramic materials have become important for various industrial applications. Many types
have these materials have been developed. However, research and development of ceramic …

Electro discharge machining (EDM) causes a white layer at the surface of a workpiece. The
research work, described in this paper, aims to acquire a profound knowledge of this layer. …

The generation of collision free NC-programs for multi-axis milling operations is a critical
task, which leads to multi-axis milling machines being exploited below their full capacities. …

The micro-electrical discharge machining (micro-EDM) process has proved to be an
appropriate nonconventional machining method for manufacturing accurate and complex three-…

Hybrid manufacturing processes are based on the simultaneous and controlled interaction of
process mechanisms and/or energy sources/tools having a significant effect on the process …

Accurate machining by milling EDM (ie CNC contouring EDM with a rotating cylindrical or
tubular electrode) necessitates compensation of the tool electrode wear. Existing anticipated …
