Did you know this machine can output up to... 3000 kg of pressure? The brinell hardness test makes use of a 10 mm tungsten carbide ball to indent onto a surface, helping determine the hardness of a material. This can be primarily used for coarse structures like castings and forgings used in wellheads and blowup preventers. Having a higher hardness number would also mean the material would be suitable for conditions with constant abrasion, such as drill bits and pump liners, ensuring their longevity.show more

Polymorphic moulding: a manufacturing method that forms parts using... a grid of computer-controlled pins: Each pin can move up or down independently, so together they shape a surface that acts like a custom mould. Instead of building a fixed mould for every product, the machine quickly repositions the pins to match a new digital model. This means a mould can be created in minutes, used, and then reshaped again for the next design. Because the hardware stays the same and only its configuration changes: > no permanent tooling is needed > very little material is wasted > setup time between products is minimal The system essentially turns mould making into a programmable process. Engineers send a design file, the pins form the mould geometry, and the material is cast or formed inside it. Especially useful for rapid prototyping and customised manufacturing, where many different shapes must be produced in small quantities without rebuilding tools each time.
