1. Definition and Core Principle Friction welding (FW) is a solid-state joining method in which two components are pressed together and one part is moved relative to the other under pressure, generating heat by friction. This heat softens—but does not melt—the interface, and when movement stops and pressure continues, a strong metallurgical bond forms via atomic diffusi...
1. Definition and Core Concept Side milling is a machining operation in which the cutting tool’s sides engage the workpiece, rather than primarily the face of the cutter. The tool’s axis is parallel (or nearly parallel) to the surface being machined, so material is removed along the side of the cutter. This method is especially suitable for creating slots, grooves, shou...

1. What is Galling? Galling is a severe form of adhesive wear that occurs when two metal surfaces slide or rub against each other under load, causing material transfer from one surface to the other. Microscopic peaks (asperities) on the surfaces weld together due to frictional heat and pressure; as movement continues, these welds tear, pulling chunks of metal and leavin...
1. Definition and Fundamental Differences Wet etching uses liquid chemical solutions to remove material from a substrate, whereas dry etching uses gas-phase or plasma processes under vacuum to achieve material removal. The nature of the etchant (liquid vs. plasma) leads to distinct advantages and limitations for each method. 2. Process Characteristics & Etch Profile...

1. Definition and Overview Plaster casting (also called plaster-mold casting) is a metal casting process that uses a mold made from plaster (rather than sand or refractory ceramic) to form the cavity into which molten metal is poured. It falls into the family of expendable mold techniques: after casting, the mold is broken and cannot be reused. Compared with traditional...

For just over a year, it has been building a network of dealers with different profiles: experts in material handling or construction. "We have been expanding rapidly in France since the e...
AGRIMAC was founded in 1958. “Initially, it offered rotary tillers and small tractors, then it acquired the commercial division of a French company that manufactured all-terrain forklifts and dumpers.” The company enjoyed strong growth until 2008, when it was hit hard by the economic crisis. “The construction industry in the country fell by 90% and the agricultural secto...
1. Definition & Process Principle Lost foam casting is a metal-casting method in which a pattern made from expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam is coated with a refractory material and then directly surrounded by unbound sand. When molten metal is poured in, the foam pattern vaporizes and the metal fills the cavity in place of the foam, forming the finished casting. This t...
