Jon Volk is a well-known maker of custom exhaust manifolds for high-horsepower BMWs. Watch him work his design magic and cook up a header for a 1,000-plus horsepower M3.

The optimized resin system reduces carbon-carbon parts fabrication to 1-2 polymer infiltration and pyrolysis (PIP) cycles, a reduction of 70% - 80% over legacy systems.

End parts are one of the most costly components of a superconducting magnet. Therefore, efforts are underway at Fermilab to develop new technologies to reduce the fabrication time and cost of the ...

New research reveals that brake pad emissions may be more toxic than diesel exhaust, posing serious health risks.

Current applications of Fused Filament Fabrication in additive manufacturing tend to produce heavily anisotropic parts. This is largely due to the discretization of heterogeneous planar layers, ...

Abstract The objective of the work is to determine the influence of the PLA melting temperature during 3D printing on the dimensional accuracy of the model parts. Two modular drilling devices were ...

In early 2023, Dixie Metal Products, a SPIDA member located in Memphis, TN, was contracted to fabricate a large diameter exhaust ductwork system needed for a new 550,000 square foot Owens Corning ...

EnergySolutions, Salt Lake City, planned to open a manufacturing facility in southeastern Tennessee to make parts for nuclear power plants, the company announced Tuesday in a press release. For the ...

HEADER DESIGN Typical street headers are comprised of just a few basic parts: the flange, the primary tubes, and a collector. The flange is the plate which bolts up to the engine's exhaust ports.
