[REPORT SUMMARY] Periodic Report Summary 2 - SIREN (Stability Islands: Performance Revolution in Machining)
Cutting has been considered as primary machining operation for centuries and likely to remain dominant among future machining technologies, too. Cutting went through a revolution in the 1990s when high-speed milling (HSM) was introduced. This has been followed by an...
