More and more old machines have the problem that their control electronics’ lifecycle comes to its intended end of life, whilst the mechanics itself and process capability is still in very good condition. This article shows an example of a reactive ion etcher originally built in 1988, which was refitted with a new control concept. The origina...

During the remanufacturing process, the injector body - after disassembling and cleaning process - should be subjected to some strict control processes, both visually and by an electronic microscope, for evidencing any defects that may occur on the sealing surface of the injector body and the atomizer. In this paper we present the path followed by ...

This paper presents a brand new induction electromagnetic launcher, which uses two magnetic fluxes in order to accelerate a projectile. One magnetic flux induce a current in the armature and the second magnetic flux is creating a radial magnetic field. This aproach offer multiple advantages over single flux designs. First we are able to control the...

Stress triaxiality is considered an invariant of stress, defined as the ratio of hydrostatic stress (hydrostatic pressure by other authors) and the equivalent stress (usually calculated using von Mises criterion). If the values of the main three stresses have comparable sizes, stress triaxiality can be also calculated using the first invariant of t...
