NAMTEC is now taking bookings for the Technology of Cutting Edges Seminar on 14 May. A packed day of presentations will cover materials, heat treatment, sharpening and testing of cutting edges. The application of technologies such as advanced coatings, powder metallurgy, laser deposition and hardening will also be covered.
There will be demonstrations by the Design, Modelling and Simulation Centre and CATRA, along with poster sessions.
Cutting edges have an essential role in modern life, ranging from domestic cutlery, surgical and craft tools to the processing of food, packaging and manufactured goods. Advanced manufacturing technologies support the continued development of improved edge performance and working life.
