US-Spain Dissertation Enhancement Research: Experimental Evaluation of Low-Contact-Force Machining

0413807 Singhose这个为期一年的奖项将支持格鲁吉亚理工学院机械工程系学生Joel Fortgang的论文改进项目。他将与Juan M.塞维利亚诺在西班牙马德里ETSII理工大学。Fortgang先生的研究目标是开发提高低接触力精密机床的速度和质量的技术。 Fortgang先生在西班牙的工作将对他就命令生成和辅助元素的设计和执行问题所制定的理论原则进行实验性评估。 Fortgang先生将受益于西班牙实验室为生产超高精度零件而开发的微型铣床的卓越经验。该项目的预期收益是提高精密制造领域精密加工的产量。 提高精密零件的生产速度将为医疗器械等产品的消费者节省大量成本。

0413807SinghoseThis one-year award will support a dissertation enhancement project of Joel Fortgang, a student in the Mechanical Engineering Department at the Georgia Institute of Technology. He will work with Prof. Juan M. Sevillano at the ETSII Polytechnic University of Madrid in Spain. The objective of Mr. Fortgang's research is to develop techniques for increasing speed and quality of low-contact-force precision machine tools. Mr. Fortgang's work in Spain will provide the experimental evaluation of theoretical principles he has developed on the design and implementation issues of command generation and auxiliary elements. Mr. Fortgang will benefit from the exceptional experience in the Spanish laboratory with its micro-mill, developed to produce ultra-high precision parts.An anticipated benefit of this project is an increased throughput for precision machining in the field of precision manufacturing. An increased speed of production of precision parts will provide significant cost savings to consumers in such products as medical devices.
