In Electrochemical Machining (ECM), where the material removal takes place based on the anodic dissolution of the workpiece material, the working distance is one of the most important parameters. Especially in Jet Electrochemical Machining (Jet-ECM), where a micro nozzle is moved over the initial surface of the workpiece in order to apply an electrolytic free jet to produce the desired shapes, the distance between the nozzle and the workpiece becomes even more important. On the one hand a small working distance is aspired to achieve high current densities resulting in a high efficiency of the process. On the other hand the working distance needs to be large enough to avoid damages on the micro nozzle caused by electrical discharges or mechanical contact. Hence, the adjustment of the working gap is essential to realize a precise, effective and secure Jet-ECM process. The control of the gap size is done based on the data gathered before machining by surface measurement. Until now, the initial surface has been detected by electrostatic probing through moving the nozzle stepwise to the work piece surface and detect the voltage drop between the nozzle and the work piece. With this strategy, only a limited number of points can be detected within adequate time. Hence, in most cases only three points of the initial surface are detected in order to adjust the working distance according to the planar inclination of the workpiece. The coordinates of the three detected points are used to calculate the normal vector of the initial surface. In recent studies, another strategy was analysed, which is realized by dividing the surface into smaller areas and respectively calculating the normal vector of each area in order to obtain more accurate data of the initial surface. A further strategy is to use probing along the machining path of the tool and to gather the coordinates of a number of points along the path. The above mentioned methods usually do not ensure the precise control of

Magnetic pulse welding (MPW) is an impact welding technology for producing metallic bonds of similar and dissimilar materials offering advantages such as avoidance of temperature induced problems. Based on the parameters describing the collision of the joining partners, specifically the impact angle and impact velocity, so-called welding windows describe whether or not welding will be successful for a specific material combination. However, as in MPW collision parameters depend on equipment and setup dependent parameters, using these welding windows for process design requires knowledge about the adjustment of the collision parameters via the adjustable process parameters. Therefore, the influence of adjustable process parameters on collision parameters and resulting weld quality is analyzed and trends, for a target oriented process and joint design, are deduced. Specifically, joining of copper to aluminum, copper to copper, aluminum to copper and aluminum to stainless steel is regarded.

A very important feature of high quality gears is a low noise emission in all operating conditions. Micro-geometry of the gear is of relevance for the vibration excitation in the tooth contact and significantly affected by the manufacturing process, especially the finishing operations. Besides known process related effects, uncontrolled variations such as inaccuracies in the speed synchronization of different axes or vibrations influence the surface structure of the tooth flanks. In this paper a detailed simulation of the production process is presented, providing crucial information about characteristic process properties and enabling investigations on the impact of manufacturing process on gear mesh acoustics.

forming processes are generally characterized by a high degree of material utilization as well as short process times and, consequently, a decent economic efficiency. Considering their application in the manufacturing of large spur gears, forming processes offer a significantly attractive characteristic for the production of essential gearing components commonly used in wind turbines or marine engines. Furthermore, the hot forming process can be defined as an incremental forming process which enables the use of relatively low forming forces and results in a more compact design of the used machines. These conveniences are utilized in terms of roll forming with round tools to form gears and threads in a competitive way. Based on experiences gained over many years of researching rolling technologies, a cross-rolling process characterized by round tools with outer gearings was elaborated to realize a hot forming process for gear rolling of large spur gears at the fraunhofer IWU Chemnitz. Based on the already researched forming of smaller dimensioned gears, rolling trials utilizing a new hot-formingmachinery - including defined inductive heating process before rolling - to realize large gears with outer diameters of up to 1000 millimeters were conducted. In terms of realizing this ambition, the derivation of the designated machine parameters for rolling large gears in real-life dimensions can be defined as a crucial factor. Consequently, the experimental research was followed by a mathematical analyzation of the forming forces, momenta as well as the necessary steps to determine the best possible scaling factors for the work pieces.

Mobile machining solutions use autonomous machining units that can be transported to different part locations, making possible easy maintenance and repair of large industrial equipment. Every new part and location results in different boundary conditions for the mobile machine tool-part system; influencing the dynamics of the combined system and necessitating different strategies for part/machine referencing and clamping. To facilitate efficient mutability and modularity in mobile machining solutions, this paper presents a dynamic substructuring strategy that combines the response characteristics of the mobile machine unit with different base models to obtain the synthesized mobile machine tool dynamic response. Numerical and experimental verification of the approach is provided. Framework presented can also combine measured response of parts for which models may not be available a priori. Methods presented provide experimental guidelines for establishing strategies for planning of machining strategies based on the evaluated dynamics.
