In modern accelerators, stringent requirements are placed on the materials used for vacuum systems. Their physical and mechanical properties, machinability, weldability and brazeability are key parameters. Adequate strength, ductility, magnetic properties at room as well as low temperatures are important factors for vacuum systems of accelerators working at cryogenic temperatures. In addition, components undergoing baking or activation of Non-Evaporable Getters (NEG) or directly exposed to the beam impose specific choices of material grades for suitable outgassing and mechanical properties in a large temperature range. Today, stainless steels are the dominant materials of vacuum systems. The reasons for specific requirements in terms of metallurgical processes are detailed for obtaining adequate purity, inclusion cleanliness and fineness of the microstructure. In many cases these requirements are crucial to guarantee the final leak tightness of the vacuum components. Innovative manufacturing and material examination technologies are also treated.

Additive Manufacturing is a rapid growing technology that brings huge advantages to industry. Nevertheless, there are still challenges to be tackled in order to fully adopt AM. A very important criterium to take in consideration is quality consistency of printed parts. This in order to guarantee repeatability and monitor the printing conditions.
The impulse excitation technique is a NDT method active in material characterization, evolution and QC, by analyzing the mechanic-elastic behavior of all parts. This technology allows for 100% inspection of AM parts in an easy, fast and reliable way. This technique is equally suitable to test technical ceramics and other complex materials.

Precision Electro Chemical Machining (PECM), is a technology to produce high precision mechanical parts by removing material electrochemically. The process takes place under aqueous electrolyte, where a pulsating current and pulsating approach of a dye, leaves an intrinsically clean, tight, homogenic biocompatible surface. No contact between tooling and product occurs and no heat is induced to the part by the process.

Ing. Arnold Douma, CEO, Exakt Fijnmechanika

In this Tech talk, we will show how additive manufacturing machine, produced with machine tool design principles, will increase productivity, reliability and consistency of precise SLM part production.

Design teams and suppliers should care, collaborate and challenge each other (ASML’s core values). Communication is key to achieve high quality parts, with lower cost and lead times. We have many things to learn from each other, about the requirements, about manufacturing techniques and their limitations and qualification of the parts. During the lecture, we will mention some nice examples, highlights, success stories we achieved together as suppliers and designers but we will also touch upon some improvement points.

The Lithography and measurement solutions of ASML play an important role in the exponential growth of computing (Moore’s Law). To enable our customers to make the next step in chip-manufacturing we need to reduce the Cost of our Technology. This implies that we need to better understand the cost and complexity constraints we put on our products in an early design phase. To do so we need to bridge the GAP between design and manufacturing. We need your manufacturability feedback to enable us to deliver faster and more cost-efficient innovations towards our customers.

Ir. Jeroen Aerts – High-NA System Engineer Cost of Goods, ASML

In micron-level machining, some deviations are inevitable, for example tool size, clamping deviation,part allowance deviation etc. Eliminating the influence from these deviations on machining accuracy is important. There’s already been some solutions can quantify the deviations in-machine and make compensation. Yet in other complicated situations, more intelligent and flexible solutions are needed. This is exactly what Jingdiao solution can realize. Jingdiao solution can build coordinate system intelligently of parts with irregular shape or uneven allowance, such as 3D printed parts, and can  measure and calculate part allowance accuracy and use the data to compensate the tool to realize micron production

This lecture shows hybrid manufacturing to combine machining and additive manufacturing of metal parts on the DMP 350 printer from 3D Systems. This technology allows to consolidate assemblies into single parts, while reducing cost and lead time. In parallel, thanks to the wide range of possibilities that AM offer hybrid manufacturing can potentially improve the performance of the part and increase the leak tightness compared to traditionally manufactured assemblies.

Conventional Statistical Process Control (SPC) alone is likely to fall short for AM applications. By combining computed tomography (CT), metrology, process, and simulation data, we are able to perform a root cause analysis that will help identify correlations between process parameters and occurring defects using AI/ML methods to meet Industry 4.0 expectations. This enhanced SPC approach allows us to detect potential defects faster or even before they happen and thus reduce the number of failed parts in production. Potentially, this approach may also help reduce the efforts in Computed Tomography (CT) and Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) activity.

Röders develops its machines for best performance in precision machining by combining milling, grinding and measuring in one machine. Throughput times are significantly reduced because operators need to set up the workpiece only one time and afterwards the machine performs all machining operations by itself. With automation this becomes even more productive. The foundation of this approach is the new PRECITEMP®-Technology developed by Roeders which holds the machine geometrically absolutely stable even if ambient temperatures are changing.

Dipl.-Ing. Jürgen Röders – Managing Director Röders GmbH

Photo Chemical Etching is one of the very few manufacturing techniques to produce (metal) precision parts without adding tension or burrs to the material. Although it’s not very well-known, etched parts can be found in almost all market segments. The process can be both a batch process for small to medium volumes and a reel-to-reel process for high volume

During this presentation the different possibilities, advantages and applications of these two processes also in comparison to other manufacturing techniques will be discussed.
