The complex machining process presents many challenges, one of which is controlling vibrations caused by the dynamic behaviour of the machine, the tool and the workpiece. New hardware developments are ...
Equipment based on microfluidics is slowly finding its way into everyday life. Just think of the now well-known COVID-19-PCR test. The classic way to manufacture the moulds for these microfluidic ...
Sirris conducts research into how new technologies can become meaningful in industrial applications. One of them is femtosecond laser technology. The effect of texturing on friction was shown using a ...
Laser engraving is a fast and efficient way to permanently mark all kinds of materials. Laser engraving comes in all shapes and sizes. Colours are also possible. Various techniques and technologies ...
The use of femtosecond lasers for laser marking, instead of the classical nano- and picosecond lasers can prevent corrosion. Unknown is unloved and therefore Sirris gives you the opportunity not only ...
In cooperation with the Swiss CERN, Sirris is evaluating the creation of cooling channels in silicon wafers by means of femtosecond (fs) laser ablation.
Metalworking company Malmar wanted to find out whether one of its products could be automatically post-processed. This was done to improve working conditions and increase the quality of the pieces ...
Cutting parameters used in machining operations are usually selected based on tool manufacturers’ catalogue recommendations or by operator's experience. This is not optimised to the application at ...
Goddeeris, a Roeselare industrial supplier, specialises in the machining of complex castings. During machining, it is essential to prevent vibrations caused by the equipment. The vibrations can be ...
The application of nanotextures with ultra-short pulsed lasers remains interesting for many applications and LIPSS (laser induced periodic surface structures) is the most widely used technique. A ...
