Expanding Markets On A Miniature Scale
7/27/2010
Components made from alumina (Al2O3), silicon nitride (Si3N4), aluminum nitride (AlN) and other ceramic materials are used in a wide range of electronic, automotive, aerospace, medical, and other high-tech applications. As these application areas continue to grow, manufacturers must find new and better solutions for machining these materials so that they can produce parts more cost effectively and on an increasingly smaller scale. While lasers have been used to drill, cut, and scribe ceramics for many years, the latest generation of laser systems offers new micromachining possibilities in ceramics.

Monitoring Carbon Composite Structures With Optical Fiber Sensors
5/26/2010
Fiber reinforced polymer composites
are revolutionizing the design of
large, high-performance structures in
the aerospace, marine and power generation
industries due to their advantages
in areas such as corrosion resistance,
specific strength and tailorability. The
use of carbon fiber reinforced composites,
the most common and lightest of
the “non-exotic” composite materials, is
now very widespread. By Luna Technologies, a Division of Luna Innovations Incorporated
