The need for using alternative processes rather than electro-discharge machining (EDM) for
micro-parts has allowed micro-manufacturing (also known as precision engineering) to …

The concept of miniaturizing machine tools has received a strong interest in the research
community due to their ability to fabricate intricate components. Lower power consumption …

The paper presents a novel process of micro-cutting wherein the material removal is
achieved by applying a constant penetration force of the cutting tool into the workpiece …

Increasingly, the manufacturing industry is concerned to produce the components with the
great quality. This quality is correlated with desired surface integrity, accuracy of dimensions …

A novel system for performing in-situ micro-machining of aero-engines for repair
applications is proposed in this paper. Using Pulsed Laser Ablation (PLA) as material …

Micromilling is a contact based material removal process in which a rotating tool with nose
radius in microns is fed over a stationary workpiece. In the process small amount of material …

Self-excited vibrations known as chatter are considered as the most detrimental issue in
micro-turning processes. Occurring unpredictably, they adversely affect the tool life …

Estimation of tool wear in micro turning is important as it enhances the process fidelity and
the surface quality of the job. In this work, a simple process is demonstrated that estimates …
