  • Fabrication of Titanium Metal Matrix Composite Bling
    FABRICATION OF TITANIUM METAL MATRIX COMPOSITE BLING Katsuyoshi Moriya , Yasushi Nojima , Shigeto Nishide , and Koichi Yasuhira Research Institute of Advanced Material Gas-Generator (AMG) 4-2-6, Kohinata, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, 112-0006, Japan SUMMERY: Metal matrix composite (MMC) bling (bladed ring) for gas-turbine’s compressor was developed. The bling was consist of monolithic titanium clad and hoop reinforced MMC core. The MMC core material was using titanium matrix coated fiber. The MMC core’s fabrication process included winding of matrix coated fiber (wire) to pre-form and hot press consolidation of stacked pre-forms. The clad and the core were integrated into one piece ring with HIP. The results shows this process can minimize the misalignment and fiber breakage during consolidation. Uniform wire diameter, precise winding, and hot pressing are effective for successful processing. The burst spin strength of bling achieved 89% of coupon tensile strength. KEYWORDS: Metal Matrix Composite, Titanium Alloys, Bling, Ring, Hoop Reinforcement, Gas-generator, Rotor, Processing, Hot Press, HIP, Spin Test INTRODUCTION Research Institute of Advanced Material Gas-generator (AMG) aims to establish basic key technologies for the next generation gas turbine using advanced materials such as composites and intermetalic compound, which should have the feature of significantly low fuel consumption with reduced weight and size, and should be environmentally acceptable, toward the realization of future industrial marine and aerospace gas-turbine [1]. High efficiency and high performance compressor for future gas-turbine requires higher rotating speed and lower weight than the compressor with conventional heavy disks and blades. Due to their high specific properties and high temperature capability, continuous fiber reinforced titanium metal matrix composites (MMC) are attractive compressor material [2][3].

  • Passive Abutment Instruction Manual
    8. Finishing & Polishing Once resin cement has hardened, remove all luting screws and then remove any prosthetic retaining screws so that the prosthesis can be lifted from the model. Attach polishing protectors of correct diameter to each of the fitting surfaces of the cemented titanium rings (fig. B). Remove excess extruded resin cement (fig. C) using a sharp blade, probe or hand scaler. (Extruded Ceka Site breaks away easily in large pieces from the outer polished surfaces of the structure and titanium ring) Polish the remaining cement line using a fine edged, lens shaped rubber wheel and blend the casting into the titanium ring where needed. You will notice that the cement line is often not of constant thickness. This variation is indicative of the extent of casting misfit which existed and has now been corrected by the cement space of the Passive Abutment Passive Abutment. Once polishing is completed, remove protector caps and replace the casting on the cleaned model analogues to inspect and verify the quality of fit obtained. (Resin cement is Instruction Manual best cleaned from analogues using a brush with alcohol) The fit would be expected to be excellent in all areas, but, in the unlikely event that a luting error has occurred, the offending titanium ring may be removed, cleaned and recemented to the prosthesis as required. A titanium ring can easily be removed by forcing a sharp blade into the cementline, or by punching out the ring using the shaft of a lab handpiece drill applied through the screw access hole (place the bridge rings down on a folded towel for padding and give the drill shaft a sharp tap).

  • Cutting Procedure for Ultra Hard Metal Rings
    GEM II Battery Powered Ring Cutter Cutting Procedure For Ultra Hard Metal Rings Ver. 1.3 GEM II - Hard Metal Cutting Procedure 09/09/14 Cutting tests carried out using the GEM II battery powered ring cutter on jewellery rings made from Tungsten, Titanium and Stainless Steel. Source of test rings made from Tungsten, Titanium and Stainless Steel: ARGOS Non-jewellery ring: Brass – Toolstation Ring Material Tests RING MATERIAL WIDTH (mm) THICKNESS (mm) WEIGHT (gms) Tungsten 7 2.30 12 Argos Ref: 240/8057 Titanium 9.5 2.6 4.4 Argos Ref: 240/8909 Stainless Steel 8.0 2.5 7 Argos Ref: 240/7663 Brass (Plumbers Olive) 6.4 1.0 N/A Ring Material Features RING MATERIAL DESCRIPTION HARDNESS (MOHS Scale) Highly polished, mirror like finish. Colour similar to cobalt steel ballrace. Densest and 7.5 to 8 Tungsten heaviest of the metals tested as well as being extremely hard. Predominantly supplied in a matt grey finish, very light weight and could be Titanium mistaken for aluminium but unlike 6 to 6.5 aluminium it is very hard. Highly polished and silver in colour. Quite Stainless Steel hard. 5.5 to 6.3 Brass (Plumbers Olive) Gold/Copper like in colour. Relatively soft. 3 to 4 1 MOHS Scale Soapstone 1 Gold, Silver & Aluminium 2.5 - 3 Copper 3 Brass 3 - 4 Mild steel & Platinum 4 – 4.5 Stainless steel 5.5 – 6.3 Titanium & Jade 6 – 6.5 Tungsten 7.5 – 8 Diamond 10 2 Power Source Deployed: 4 x AA Size 2500 Mah fully charged NiMh rechargeable batteries.
