Rolled (FeCoNiCrRn/Al)-2024Al composite panel and fabrication method thereof
11731178 · 2023-08-22 · ·

Disclosed are a rolled (FeCoNiCrR.sub.n/Al)-2024Al composite panel and a preparation method therefor. The preparation method involves taking pure aluminum as a matrix, adding an FeCoNiCrR.sub.n medium-entropy alloy with a high strength and toughness as an reinforcing phase to prepare an FeCoNiCrR.sub.n/Al composite material, then laminating the FeCoNiCrR.sub.n/Al composite material with aluminum alloy 2024, and preparing the (FeCoNiCrR.sub.n/Al)-2024Al composite board by means of hot-rolling recombination, which solves the problem that high-strength aluminum matrix composites (AMCs) are prone to instantaneous breakability and low ductility, thereby improving the overall performance of the material. The present disclosure adopts microwave sintering (MWS) to fabricate a medium-entropy alloy-reinforced AMC, and adopts hot-roll bonding to fabricate the (FeCoNiCrR.sub.n/Al)-2024Al metal composite panel. The composite panel fabricated by the present disclosure has excellent comprehensive mechanical properties, and has high application values for promoting the application of modern lightweight and high-efficiency industrial materials in aerospace, new energy vehicles, and the like.

WORKPIECE SECURING DEVICE
20210354268 · 2021-11-18 ·

This disclosure is directed to a method for forming and using one or more workpiece securing devices to reduce the deflections and vibrations of the workpiece during machining, as well as the time and labor associated with machining multiple workpieces. The method includes depositing material onto a surface of a movable jaw of a vise to form a first jaw protrusion and depositing material onto a surface of a stationary jaw of the vise to form a second jaw protrusion. A workpiece can be secured between the first and second jaw protrusions and then can be machined.

Device and method for producing a component

A device and method for producing a component are provided. The device or method includes steps or units for providing a first component element having a recess in or on a first surface of the first component element, and for positioning a second component element in the region of the recess. The device or method also includes a step or unit for pressing the first component element and the second component element together, and as a result forming a material fit, positive fit and/or non-positive fit between the first and the second component elements at least in the region of the recess. The positioning and the pressing can be carried out or are carried out functionally, in particular, spatially and/or temporally, in terms of equipment, separately from each other.
