    Abstract: It has been widely focused because of its complex integral-structure and strict technical requirement since AP1000 main pipe appeared, which is made by 316LN stainless steel. After ten years of effort and exploring, excellent forging suppliers from all over the world agree that 316LN heavy forgings including AP1000 only can be formed by relatively ... Show More

    Abstract: Material machinability evaluation is the basis of a reasonable manufacturing process. Material machinability can be evaluated qualitatively and quantitatively using the radar-graph method. However, two key questions remain unresolved, and these are indicator weight confirmation and effective evaluation. A comprehensive evaluation method is proposed... Show More

    Abstract: Oxygen, nitrogen and hydrogen from air greatly affect the surface quality of milled superalloys—a difficult-to-cut material. Here, we described a novel infrared-thermal conductivity method to measure oxygen, nitrogen and hydrogen on superalloy surfaces during milling. A milling experimental program was projected via the uniform design method—this c... Show More
