A laser tube cutting machine for the cutting processing of tubes with a workpiece moving device, which receives the tube and moves it relative to a push-through device supporting the tube, which is guided by clamping jaws of the push-through device. A laser machining device is associated with the push-through device and has a processing head which directs a laser beam emerging from the processing head onto the tube. A tool of a processing device mechanical processes the tube, which tool is moveable in at least one direction of movement relative to the tube. At least one counterholder is movable into a working position for abutting against the tube, which counterholder acts in the opposite direction to the direction of application of force of the tool.

A tailored blank including a first steel sheet having a carbon content of 0.27 mass % or more, and a second steel sheet that is butt welded to the first steel sheet and that has a carbon content of 0.20 mass % or less, wherein the tailored blank includes an elongated future top plate portion, a future sidewall portion, and a future flange portion, a first steel sheet region that is configured by the first steel sheet is formed spanning part or all of a length direction of the future top plate portion, and a second steel sheet region that is configured by the second steel sheet is formed at the future flange portion to be joined by welding to another member, and wherein part or all of a length direction of the first steel sheet region is positioned within a length direction range of the second steel sheet region.

A method of manufacturing a part includes additively manufacturing, with an additive manufacturing machine, at least one wall of the part having a first thickness from powder in a powder bed, and peening, with a peening system, at least a portion of the wall of the part. The peening induces plastic deformation in the portion of the wall. The portion of the wall that is peened has a second thickness less than the first thickness of the wall prior to peening. The second thickness of the portion of the wall may be less than a minimum thickness limit achievable by the additive manufacturing machine.

A stamping strip manufacturing system comprises a stamping machine forming terminals in a strip by stamping. A supply reel around which a strip to be stamped is wound supplies the strip to be stamped to the stamping machine, and a recovery reel around which the stamped strip is wound recovers the stamped strip. A strip cutting and welding device of the system cuts off an unqualified strip segment of the strip having an unqualified terminal and welds two cut ends of the cut strip to each other.

An example laser tool is configured to operate within a casing or liner in wellbore of a hydrocarbon-bearing rock formation. The tool is configured to cut sections into the casing or liner material. The cut sections may break off or may be broken off using a breaking tool. The sections may be cut in a region of the casing or liner that includes a kick-off point for sidetracking operations.

A tool holder attached to a main spindle of a machine tool is provided. The tool holder includes a main body that has a tubular shape and extends in a direction away from the main spindle with the tool holder attached to the main spindle; an optically pumped laser that is installed inside the main body and configured to radiate a laser light by using an exciting light provided by a light source; an optical system that guides the laser light radiated by the optically pumped laser so that the laser light is emitted from a leading end of the main body in an extending direction of the main body; and a light-guiding path that guides the exciting light from an outside of the main body to the optically pumped laser.

The disclosure relates to the field of wire arc additive manufacturing, and specifically discloses a wire arc additive manufacturing method for a high-strength aluminum alloy component, equipment and a product. A high-strength aluminum alloy is modified by using a MXene nanomaterial, and wire arc additive manufacturing is performed by using the modified high-strength aluminum alloy as a raw material, and a nanosecond laser beam is applied during the wire arc additive manufacturing to achieve an enhanced arc cathode atomization cleanup function to remove impurities, thus obtaining a high-strength aluminum alloy component without defects. The disclosure can solve the problem of very difficult forming in wire arc additive manufacturing of a high-strength aluminum alloy, and also solve the problems of many pores, liability to crack and lots of impurities during additive manufacturing of the high-strength aluminum alloy, so that a high-strength aluminum alloy component without defects can be produced.

An additive manufacturing system configured to additively build an article can include an energy applicator, a build platform, and a powder nozzle configured to eject powder toward the build platform to be acted on by the energy applicator. The system can include a control module configured to control the energy applicator to create an amorphous structure forming at least a portion of the article.
