23 Different Types of Hammers

A Hammer is a mechanical tool that delivers a sudden impact to an object. Commonly hammers are used to drive nails, fit parts, forge metal and break apart objects. There are different types of hammers in use, they vary in shape, size and structure. Here 23 different types of hammers pictures are shown below.

Laser Cutting Machine

Laser cutting     is a fabrication process which employs a focused, high-powered   laser beam   to cut material into custom shapes and designs. This process is suitable for a wide range of materials, including metal, plastic, wood, gemstone, glass, and paper, and can produce precise, intricate, and complex parts without the need for custom-designed tooling. There are several different types of laser cutting available, including fusion cutting, oxidation cutting, and scribing. Each laser cutting process can produce parts with precision, accuracy, and high-quality edge finishes, and with generally less material contamination, physical damage, and waste than with other conventional cutting processes, such as mechanical cutting and waterjet cutting. However, while laser cutting demonstrates certain advantages over more conventional cutting processes, some manufacturing applications can be problematic, such as cutting reflective material or material requiring secondary ma...

 Biomechanical engineering is a field that integrates principles of mechanical engineering with biological systems, particularly focusing on the interaction between mechanical factors and living organisms. Here are some key aspects and applications of biomechanical engineering: Biomechanics : This involves the study of the mechanical aspects of biological systems, such as how forces affect cells, tissues, and organs. Biomechanical engineers apply principles from mechanics (statics, dynamics, fluid mechanics, etc.) to understand and analyze biological structures and functions. Medical Devices : Biomechanical engineers design and develop medical devices such as prosthetics, implants, orthotics, and assistive devices. These devices aim to improve mobility, enhance bodily functions, or replace damaged biological structures. Tissue Engineering : This field combines engineering principles with biology to create biological substitutes that restore, maintain, or improve tissue function. Bi...

Coordinate Measuring Machine Probes

Image
  A  Coordinate Measuring Machine  is defined by the ability of its probe. As with CMMs, there are several types of probes available. There is the contact probe, which measures the workpieces by making contact with them. The non-contact probe that employs lasers or machine vision probes which scan with optical sensors. Contact probes are a more accurate way of measuring. However, the laser or machine vision probes are far quicker to use, while still holding a high degree of accuracy. There are also multi-sensor probes which combine both touch and optical scanning, giving the benefit of both types in one probe. Coordinate Measuring Machines: Contact Probes The two most common contact probes are Touch Trigger Probes and Analog Scanning Probes. Touch Trigger Probes: A touch trigger probe has a stylus that is attached to a bearing plate. This is then connected to pressure sensors inside the housing of the probe. Each time the probe makes contact with the workpiece, it generat...
