  • Patent number: 11724299
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for straightening of a tube comprising a ferritic FeCrAl-alloy. One reason for the challenges regarding the cold working of a hollow of a ferritic FeCrAl-alloy into a finished tube is that FeCrAl-alloys have a low ductility. Even if a tube of a FeCrAl-alloy is obtained by cold working a hollow into a tube, the tube can hardly be straightened. This is even more a problem if a tube obtained is annealed, wherein the annealing leads to a deformation of tube along the longitudinal direction of the tube. Therefore, there is a need for a method for straightening of a tube comprising a ferritic FeCrAl-alloy. Thus, according to the present disclosure a method for straightening of a tube is suggested, wherein the method comprises the steps of providing a tube comprising a ferritic FeCrAl-alloy, heating the tube, and straightening and forming the heated tube by stretching.

  • Patent number: 11720079
    Abstract: A Web-based system and method creates one or more qualitatively distinct process plans for machining a part. The surfaces of the part are modeled and parameters for a plurality of CNC machining tools are obtained, including the orientations along which the tool cuts away raw material. A maximal set of translations for each tool is also obtained, where each translation includes a collision-free orientation of the tool and a maximal machinable volume of material removable from the part in that orientation. A search engine navigates through a hierarchically-structured search space that starts at an initial state and transitions to successive states based on actions that satisfy a cost constraint function. Each state and each action includes a tool, orientation of the tool, and a maximal machinable volume. The search ends when a goal condition is satisfied. The actions constitute the process plan.

  • Patent number: 11679428
    Abstract: A connection tube (1) for connecting two tubes (8, 9) of different alloys, wherein the connection tube has a central through-hole extending along a longitudinal axis and comprises a first end portion (2) of a first alloy, a second end portion (3) of a second alloy, and a middle portion (4) which is at least partly double-layered with said second alloy forming an annular inner layer and said first alloy forming an annular outer layer, wherein a metallic bond has been formed between said layers. The inner and outer layers are mechanically interlocked by means of at least one helically extending thread formed in an interface between said layers. The connection tube is manufactured from a base component and an outer component threaded onto the base component to form a work piece, which is hot worked to form a metallic bond.
