ULTRASONIC MACHINING AN APERTURE IN A WORKPIECE

A method is provided for machining a workpiece. During this machining method, an aperture is formed in the workpiece using a machining system. The machining system includes an ultrasonic machining device, a slurry delivery device and a controller. The forming of the aperture includes delivering a slurry to an interface between the ultrasonic machining device and the workpiece using the slurry delivery device, and transmitting ultrasonic vibrations into the slurry using the ultrasonic machining device. A feedback parameter is monitored during the forming of the aperture using the controller. A slurry delivery parameter for the slurry delivery device is adjusted during the forming of the aperture based on the feedback parameter using the controller.

CONCRETE SCREEDING MACHINE FOR TILT-UP PANELS

A screeding machine includes a base unit positionable at framework that defines a concrete structure and a screed head assembly movably mounted at the base via an extendable and retractable mechanism. The screed head assembly includes a grade establishing member, a vibrating member, and elevation actuators for adjusting elevation of the screed head assembly. The screed head assembly is positioned at a screeding location via extension of the extendable and retractable mechanism and is movable over the uncured concrete in a screeding direction via retraction of the extendable and retractable mechanism. Adjustable wings disposed at and in front of the grade establishing member in the screeding direction are movable along the grade establishing member. When one of the ends of the screed head assembly is positioned at a frame portion, the wing at that end of the screed head assembly is moved to position the wing at the frame portion.
