United Grinding and Titans of CNC to Launch New Grinding Academy
Titans of CNC has four United Grinding machines on its shop floor in Texas: the BLOHM Planomat XT profile grinder, the STUDER favorit and STUDER S41 cylindrical grinding machines, and the Walter Helitronic Vision 400 L tool grinder. These machines will be the first tools used to create content for the Grinding Academy. The Grinding Academy launched in June 2022. To view the Grinding Academy, visit grindingacademy.com. To see the complete lineup of machines and for more information on the United Grinding and Titans of CNC partnership, visit titansforgrinding.com.
United Grinding, a global leader in CNC grinding technology, and TITANS of CNC, a manufacturing group of part-makers, influencers and educators, have collaborated to launch the all-new Grinding Academy. Much like TITANS’ existing machining and aerospace academies, the Grinding Academy will offer free online courses that teach and train the next generation of machinists. “We’re so excited to be teaming with Titans of CNC on their Grinding Academy,” said Paul Kössl, Global Head of Marketing and Business Development at UNITED GRINDING Group. “The precision and quality made possible by CNC grinding is something that more manufacturers should know about. The academy will showcase all of that power and potential, while also teaching viewers how to harness it.” Titans of CNC’s humble origins — a lone machine shop in California — has grown into the world’s first CNC educational platform that’s recognized by engineers, machinists, hobbyists, students and educators around the world. With over a million followers across social media platforms including Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn, and TikTok, TITANS of CNC has become the trusted voice in manufacturing. “We’re grateful for partners like United Grinding, whose world-class equipment and collaborative philosophies allow us to do what we do, which is educate and inspire anyone who has a passion for manufacturing,” said Titan Gilroy, CEO at TITANS of CNC. “The Grinding Academy will teach students the full spectrum of grinding from fundamentals to finished parts, and the curriculum found at grindingacademy. com will always be 100% free.”
LSU Mechanical Engineering Faculty Team Up with NASA to Advance Additively Manufactured Materials Launch vehicles and propulsion systems are very complex and must survive extreme thermal, dynamic, pressure, and environmental loads. The materials and alloys used in these systems are often challenging to produce, costly, and have long lead times. Thanks to a NASA EPSCoR (Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research) and Louisiana Board of Regents grant, LSU Mechanical Engineering Professors Shengmin Guo and Michael Khonsari are working with NASA and LaSPACE to advance additively manufactured alloys to help reduce cost and lead times. “Our goal through EPSCoR and other partnerships is to advance technologies, including novel alloys, for our missions and commercial spaceflight partners,” said Paul Gradl, NASA principal engineer at Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala. “Part of our role is to understand the additive manufacturing processes better and provide accessible data so that NASA and industry can make better use of these processes and novel alloys.”
