It is hard to say when the tariffs would be removed again. As it is clearly going to hurt the US Steel industry. Importers should soon start complaining.
However, it will help some major local steel producers who have been complaining about low steel prices. Certainly, prices are going to shoot up now.
This should help the steel industry for some time. That said the industry has been on the see-saw between locals and importers since the tariffs imposed. Now, this is local producers turn to rise.
Composite materials are formed by combining two or more materials with different properties. In composites, all materials combined physically can be differentiated chemically. The objective of combining different materials is to get more desirable properties. The composite materials give unique propRead more
Composite materials are formed by combining two or more materials with different properties. In composites, all materials combined physically can be differentiated chemically.
The objective of combining different materials is to get more desirable properties. The composite materials give unique properties which are different from their constituents and gives the synergic effect to their constituents.
They are the multiphase materials which exhibit a significant portion of all the properties present in different phases in it. For instance, fibres are usually strong, and polymers show better stiffness. By combining them in a composite material gives both properties to the new material, i.e. better stiffness and high strength.
Engineering or commercially available composites are usually manufactured from straight fibres like glass fibres, carbon fibres and aramid fibres. These fibres are set in a host of polymer matrices like polyester, epoxy, acrylic or phenolic resins to manufacture composites.
There are various methods to manufacture composite structures. These processes are designed to meet specific design requirements. Selection of specific manufacturing process for composite parts depends on the raw materials, design specification and end-use application.
All of the fabrication methods of composite parts require moulding process to give shape to the resins and reinforcements. The most common technique of composite fabrication is hand layup. In this technique, fibres are stacked in the moulds, and then resins are applied to them by hand.
In some high-performance composite components, pressure moulding is performed with the help of vacuum bagging or some other techniques. In some applications, high temperature is required along with the pressure for curing of resins. Autoclaves are used to meet that requirement.
Filament winding is the most common method in the industry to fabricate the cylindrical parts. In this technique, the filament is continuously winded along with the infusion of resins on the cylindrical moulds.
One of the recent examples is the partnership between LG and Qualcomm under which both will create an In-vehicle infotainment platform for connected cars. The platform will be interconnected through the internet for communication between vehicles for other safety features measures as well. Under theRead more
One of the recent examples is the partnership between LG and Qualcomm under which both will create an In-vehicle infotainment platform for connected cars.
The platform will be interconnected through the internet for communication between vehicles for other safety features measures as well.
Under the partnership, LG will be responsible for the establishment of internet connectivity, interface, screen setting while QUALCOMM will provide its automotive chip as a base for all solutions. The platform is set to display in Consumer Electronics Show, held in Las Vegas, in 2020.
Indeed, 3D printing is an emerging technology in the vehicle manufacturing supply chain. 3D printing is used for making small and delicate parts easily. There are numerous automakers using parts which are produced through 3D printing, for example, Ford, Bugatti, Honda, BMW, Toyota and others.
