FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: BRENTWOOD, Tenn., November 18, 2019 – Last week, VEXTEC was among a shortlisted group of small businesses that participated in the US Air Force’s Open Innovation Pitch Day for Rapid Sustainment. After VEXTEC’s Phase I work demonstrated the feasibility of a virtual [...]
ASTM’s Symposium on Structural Integrity of Additive Manufactured (AM) Parts was held in the first week of November in Washington, DC. Being part of ASTM’s Committee Week, the symposium was sponsored by a number of ASTM Committees (F42 – Additive Manufacturing Technologies; E08 – Fatigue [...]
The largest time chunks in any product’s life cycle are in the design and engineering phases. This is because there are questions that need to be answered, both in how the product will perform and how the product itself will be made. Each of these [...]
The inaugural Additive Manufacturing Benchmarks (AM-Bench) event was held last month (June 18-21) at the headquarters of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) near Washington, D.C. The benchmark tests are a set of ongoing experiments, designed to enable modelers to evaluate and [...]
In our last blog on the topic of corrosion, we discussed how corrosion control can be a “headache”, and how controlling corrosion implies controlling the man-made contributors such as corrosion fatigue, which is a very dominant corrosion factor. Nowadays, integrated computational material engineering (ICME) and recent [...]
Read Next Blog in the Series We previously discussed how corrosion can be “the good guy” for some applications when degradation is beneficial, such as in self-deteriorating medical implants. Also, how it can be “the bad guy” for some other applications where degradation [...]

Image by Praisaeng at FreeDigitalPhotos.net While plenty of industries abhor corrosion and its consequences, another sector has welcomed it as a step in the healing process: medical devices. Devices have evolved over the decades to be less-intrusive during (and after) implantation.The bio-inert nature of titanium (along with [...]
