Casting a karambit from molten brass is as much metallurgy as it is design. Unlike forging, casting relies on mold precision, metal flow, and cooling rates to define the blade’s final structure. Brass ...

[Chris Borge] has made (and revised) many of his own tools using a combination of 3D printing and common hardware, and recently decided to try metal casting. Having created his own tapping arm, he ...

• Die-casting alloys are two to three times stronger than engineering plastics and have moduli 30 times higher. • The alloys’ thermal and electrical conductivities let die-cast parts perform double ...

Leaded high strength yellow brass – copper casting alloy UNS C86400 is a cast brass alloy of manganese bronze and leaded manganese bronze. The chocolate color of UNS C86400 can be attributed to the ...

Arup's’ research into alternative production techniques and materials has focused on the potential of 3D printing metal in the construction sector. Complex and individually designed steel structural ...
