Benefits of ECG: Electrochemical Grinding | CS1-E
Challenge Parts are cut using abrasive cutting saws, conventional abrasive grinding, wire EDM or laser cutting; slow processes resulting in long cycle times. Potential to expose material to high heat leading to heat affected zones, recast, and slag. Requires secondary process to deburr parts and remove any surface debris which reduces productivity. Design a process […]
Burr-Free Electrochemical Grinding of Arthroscopic Shaver Teeth | SG-2060
Challenge The arthroscopic shaver teeth are commonly produced by conventional abrasive grinding, wire EDM, or laser cutting; slow processes resulting in long cycle times. EDM and laser cutting burn away the metal at high temperatures leaving changes to the metal surface including a heat affected zone, recast, and slag. Laser cutting requires significant post processing […]

Manual Orthopedic Pin Manufacturing Process Converted to Automated with 100% QC | GT-610
Challenge The operator would manually feed the stainless steel orthopedic pins into the centerless grinder then manually clean and gauge each pin. Manual input and adjustment were required during the process to ensure quality. Increase process throughput and quality production by integrating automation. Produce a part every 13 seconds in an automated “lights out” system. […]
