Slide 7 of 17
Notes:
- These are “Engineered Materials”. Engineer them. Maximize your potential for success by considering, up front, the variables that are at you disposal.
- Adjust the constituents to give the mechanical properties required, that also allow the best chance to machine successfully.
- Consistency in the mix will also help in the machining process. Don’t want to run in to a high concentration of ceramic all of a sudden.
- Heat treat does effect, as mention above.
- Porosity is an issue
- Use the tools at your disposal to get the most from the material.
