Scientists have found a promising new way to manufacture one of industry’s toughest materials—tungsten carbide–cobalt—using advanced 3D printing. Normally, producing this ultra-hard material requires ...

Metal fabrication abounds with new technology that can run circles around older machines. Thing is, when you visit shops, you’ll find that new technology isn’t pervasive. Even at the most progressive ...

Dive into an in-depth project as the creator designs and builds a custom metal forming machine from scratch. This video guides you through every step—from blueprint planning and precision machining ...

Multiferroic metals are materials that exhibit both electric polarization and magnetic order in the same crystal—a state known as multiferroicity. Because these properties coexist, they can interact ...

For the first time, scientists have observed how tiny metal "thorns" called dendrites sprout inside lithium-ion batteries, which can cause the batteries to short-circuit. Their findings, published in ...

A recent study in Advanced Science reports an innovative, low-cost polymer heat exchanger that could transform how industries manage heat. The device was developed by a Rice University research team ...

Scientists in Europe are developing a new PFAS-free way to produce green hydrogen using far less of the rare metal iridium.

Researchers created a liquid-metal artificial pupil that automatically adjusts to light, helping robots and self-driving systems see more accurately in changing environments.

In an era where automated production lines and high-speed CNC machining centers dominate the factory floor, the definition of drilling efficiency has shifted. It is no longer sufficient for a tool to ...

A machine that experiences constant micro-vibration will eventually suffer from metal fatigue and premature component failure. This results in unscheduled downtime, which represents the highest cost ...

A cube of healthy bone is anything but solid. Inside it, countless tiny channels carry fluid and help cells move, feed, and ...
