Dissertations - ALL. 822. https://surface.syr.edu/etd/822 This Dissertation is brought to you for free and open access by the SURFACE at SURFACE. It has been accepted for inclusion in Dissertations - ALL by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract Approximately one quarter of Zimbabwean adults left their country of birth during the past twenty years. These sojourners are increasingly dispersed as tightening immigration regimes in preferred destinations and fluctuating global opportunities lead them to places with fewer historical links to Zimbabwe. This dispersive process fractures many families between multiple international locations. Nevertheless, the idea of family remains centrally important to diasporans, who work with relatives around the world to care for children and elders, to acquire important documents like passports, and to prepare for an eventual return home. Following from performative and relational theorizations of kinship, this dissertation argues that collaborative projects are crucibles in which families are forged and reconfigured. This exploration of how dispersion shapes family life deploys three analytical lenses: history, space and technology. Contemporary journeys are historically linked to a century of dispossession and labor-migration in Southern Africa. Colonial governments used onerous “bioinformational regimes” to subjugate Africans and profit from their labor.

This issue will showcase an abundance of innovations – you’ll see how we are transforming gear-skiving into a reliable pro- cess and thus creating new gear machining opportunities. We will present our new gear-shaping machine, which was specifically designed for high precision shaping of small pinions and multiple gear teeth, meeting the high standards of the aero- space industry. To round off the gear-cutting technology topics is our new grinding heads for internal gear teeth. Our automation division has revolutionary technology to offer as well – a new im- age recognition system for our bin picking robot application. Smaller components can now be picked from deeper bins in shorter cycle times. We also showcase the newly developed LP100 loading gantry, which coincides with the “rightsizing” trend. Every user can now find the optimum size of loading gantry for their needs in Liebherr’s portfolio. We would also like to introduce a new colleague, who has joined the Management Board of Liebherr-Verzahntechnik GmbH – Dr. Hans Gronbach. Dr. Gronbach has been the Chief Development and Design Engineering Officer since June 2016, and is responsible for championing innovation.

  • A Revolution in Metalworking Fluids
    a revolution in metalworking fluids soluble & neat metalworking fluids smart engineering solutions Metalworking fluids are one of the most complex liquids owing to their chemistry and the environment in which they have to perform. The wide range of materials and applications means that it is not possible to develop one formulation that fits all requirements. It is therefore essential to offer a wide product range so that customers can confidently choose the metalworking fluid best suited to their process and application. As well as performance requirements, we recognise our customers’ commercial needs. By offering a range of high performance products we can help the customer balance criteria such as surface finish, the severity of the working environment and productivity, against cost. High performance chemistry comes at a higher price; for example, the machining of aerospace titanium compared to steel, requires smart and different engineering solutions. Complex chemistry, new materials and difficult applications require smart Gun Drilling Human Health engineering solutions.

  • Skiving: a Manufacturing Renaissance Matthew Jaster, Senior Editor
    feature Skiving: A Manufacturing Renaissance Matthew Jaster, Senior Editor Skiving will be front and center when the gear industry comes together in Columbus this October. Attendees will find dedicated skiving equipment, multifunctional machines with skiving options and a slew of new cutting tools, machine designs and modifications to make the process more efficient and robust. Although the skiving process has been around for a very long time, the industry continues to make adjustments where need- ed. Companies are reinvesting and reinventing how to pres- ent their customers with skiving capabilities. Gear Technology recently spoke with several companies to discuss where this highly productive process fits into gear manufacturing in 2017. Tool Technology One area that has improved tremendously is the tools used Tool development at Gleason is based on its own, unique for the skiving process. In the last few years, engineers from simulation software and technology know-how. Gleason Cutting Tool Corporation in Rockford, Illinois and application engineering at Gleason-Pfauter operations in Germany and Switzerland have developed a new generation of Of course, better substrates and coatings helped to increase power skiving tools that match the specific requirements of its tool life, but the main step forward was the modern cutting customers. strategy of the multi-cut-cycles with sometimes over a dozen “For soft machining, different substrates like G50 and G70 cuts, according to Oliver Winkel, head of the application tech- are used which, in combination with Gleason’s AlCroNite Pro nology department at Liebherr. “This improves the cutting con- advanced coatings, deliver hardness and toughness characteris- ditions a lot and gives the tool a chance,” Winkel said.
