This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This work demonstrated, developed and characterized a new and novel technique for plastics welding using diffractive optics. Using diffractive elements laser beams were reshaped into various geometries that could be used for simultaneous welding of plastic in through transmission infrared welding. This novel technique also included the use of standard optics for resizing diffractive images for microwelding of complex geometries. In addition, new molecular healing models that accurately predict weld size and quality (degree of healing) were developed. The ability to quickly and economically form microwelds is critical to the development and commercialization of polymer-based MEMS and micro-fluidic devices. Thermoplastics offer significant advantages in the fields of biomedical engineering, communications, and in particular applications related to Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS). For example, the low manufacturing costs of polymers may allow industry to fabricate disposable MEMS. Rapid, consistent, and inexpensive assembly or packaging is critical to the commercialization of polymer-based MEMS. One method of joining that offers great promise of success for MEMS devices is Through Transmission Infrared (TTIr) welding. In the following studies, diffractive optics were used to reshape a laser beam into complex shapes for TTIr welding of plastics. These complex image shapes were then resized to micron-scale for micro-welding of plastics. In this portion of the study, the major findings included but are not limited to the following: 1. The diffractive optical elements could withstand as much as 80W of laser power 2. The efficiencies of the diffractive optics was greater than 55% 3. Micro-weld features as small as 300 microns with weld lines as thin as 75 microns could be produced 4. Cycle times as short as 50 ms are possible with TTIr welding with beam shaping diffractive optics 5. It is possible to produce hermetic welds that can sustain 0.7 MPa of burst pressure, which based on the weld geometry (average weld stress of 16 MPa). Another task of this work was to gain a better understanding of molecular healing so that micro-welds could be better understood. Because minimum weld size is affected by competing driving forces, namely thermal conductivity and molecular diffusion, these forces were studied. For example, as time increases heat conduction results in an increase in weld size, thus minimum heating time is desired to produce small welds. In contrast, molecular healing is also proportional to time, thus increasing the heating time increases weld strength. In addition, these two mechanisms are limited by maximum allowable temperatures, where the base material can degrade or ablate. Thus, increasing the temperatures (power) is also limited. In this study, it was found that the activation energy for molecular diffusion is temperature dependent. In addition, it was found that by considering the temperature cycle of a weld cycle, better models for predicting the degree of healing can be produced compared to traditional models that rely on a single peak temperature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LASER-ASSISTED MACHINING This unique book develops exhaustive engineering perceptions of different laser-assisted techniques, reviews the engineering context of different laser fabrication techniques, and describes the application of laser-assisted fabrication techniques. Lasers are essential in the area of material processing because they can produce coherent beams with little divergence. The fabrication process known as surface cladding includes joining (soldering, welding), material removal (laser-aided drilling, cutting, etc.), deformation (extrusion, bending), and material addition. Some remarkable advantages of laser-assisted material development include faster processing rates and preservation of essential alloying components. However, the lack of widespread understanding of various material phenomena and how laser parameters affect them prevents the technology from being widely accepted on an industrial scale. Among the subjects Laser-Assisted Machining covers include high-powered lasers in material processing applications, laser-based joining of metallic and non-metallic materials, direct laser cladding, laser surface processing, laser micro and nano processing, emerging laser materials processing techniques, solid-state lasers, laser cutting, drilling and piercing, laser welding, laser bending or forming, laser cleaning, laser automation and in-process sensing, femtosecond laser micromachining, laser-assisted micro-milling/grinding, laser-assisted jet electrochemical micro-machining, laser-assisted water jet micro-machining, hybrid laser-electrochemical micromachining process, quill and nonreciprocal ultrafast laser writing, laser surface engineering, ultrashort pulsed laser surface texturing, laser interference patterning systems, laser interference lithography, laser-guided discharge texturing. Audience The book will be used by researchers in the fields of manufacturing technology and materials science as well as engineers and high-level technicians for a better understanding of various innovative and novel techniques to cope with the need of micromachining, as well as microfabrication industries for successful implementation of microproduct manufacturing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Product miniaturization is a trend for facilitating product usage, enabling product functions to be implemented in microscale geometries, and aimed at reducing product weight, volume, cost and pollution. Driven by ongoing miniaturization in diverse areas, including medical devices, precision equipment, communication devices, micro-electromechanical systems and microsystems technology, the demands for micro metallic products have been tremendously increased. Such a trend requires the development of advanced technology for the micromanufacturing of metallic materials, with regard to producing high-quality micro metallic products that possess excellent dimensional tolerances, the required mechanical properties and improved surface quality. Micromanufacturing differs from conventional manufacturing technology in terms of materials, processes, tools, and machines and equipment, due to the miniaturization nature of the whole micromanufacturing system, which challenges the rapid development of micromanufacturing technology. Such a background has prompted and encouraged us to publish a scholarly book on the topic of the micromanufacturing of metallic materials, with the purpose of providing readers with a valuable document that can be used in the research and development of micromanufacturing technology. This book will be useful for both theoretical and applied research aimed at micromanufacturing technology, and will serve as an important research tool, providing knowledge to be returned to the community not only as valuable scientific literature, but also as technology, processes and productivities.
