TL;DR: In this article, the microstructure, the micromechanical properties, the wear behaviour and the impact resistance of WC-CoCr cermet coatings, deposited onto an aluminium alloy substrate by High Velocity Oxygen-Fuel (HVOF) flame spraying, were examined as a function of the coating thickness, which was varied between 50μm and 150μm by performing different numbers of scans of the HVOF torch in front of the substrate.

TL;DR: In this article, the shape memory properties of the manufactured component have been tested varying the operational parameters of the printing process (i.e., the temperature at the nozzle, the deposition speed, the layer thickness) as well as the activation temperature that allows the recovery of the initial shape.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the feasibility of using the Abrasive Fluidized Bed (AFB) method to finish flat AlSi10Mg substrates manufactured by Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS).

TL;DR: In this article, the authors deal with the control of springback phenomena in the bending process of aluminium sheets by hybrid forming process, where metal substrates were pre-bent to nominal shapes on a built-ad-hoc mold after being constrained on it.

TL;DR: In this paper, the evolution of polymeric film morphology and its thermal, rheological, mechanical and tribological properties are analyzed in the light of film baking time and temperature, and a generalized scratch map which correlates the adhesion strength of the polymeric films with the thermo-rheological behaviour of the base material, has been also built.
