Machining aerospace alloys presents challenges to tool performance. A comprehensive strategy is essential to achieve optimal performance while avoiding process-limiting issues. These alloys are ideal for high-stress components due to their strength and heat resistance. However, their poor machinability stems from high strength and low thermal conductivity. Effective strategies encompass optimising cutting parameters, utilising advanced tool materials and coatings, and employing efficient cooling and lubrication techniques. Implementing precise toolpaths and chip evacuation can significantly enhance performance. “The biggest issue when machining high-temp alloys is heat,” says Danny Davis, Senior Staff Engineer Solutions at Kennametal. “We need to take special care in managing the heat through correct speeds, coolants, coatings and substrates.” Where is the heat coming from? Heat generated during cutting does not dissipate easily into the workpiece or chips when compared to other materials. This forces the tool, and sometimes the part, to bear the thermal burden. Every machining operation is essentially a thermal system where electrical energy enters the spindle and converts into kinetic energy (tool rotation and movement) and heat (from plastic deformation). During chip formation, three distinct phases occur: Rubbing, involving pure friction Plowing or plastic deformation, where approximately 90% of energy becomes heat Shearing, where actual chip separation occurs but still generates significant heat “Thermal energy is the biggest factor damaging the cutting edge,” said Steve George, Senior Manager, Product Design Engineering at Kennametal. Ways to Manage Heat in High-Temp Alloys Use tools designed for efficient cutting by reducing specific cutting energy—the energy required to remove a unit volume of material. Tools like HARVI™ I or HARVI II reduce cutting energy through optimised geometries and coatings. Deploy advanced coatings such as Kennametal's KCSM15A grade, engineered specifically for high-temp alloys. Its smoother, thinner layer retains a sharper cutting edge while enhanced abrasion resistance makes it ideal for aggressive nickel-based alloy conditions. Increase lubrication with high-pressure coolant systems or minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) to reduce thermal loads, particularly at high cutting speeds. Lubrication cools and separates contact surfaces, directly reducing energy converted to heat during rubbing and plowing stages. Use tools made of insulating materials like ceramics or certain coated carbides. Since high-temp alloys have poor thermal conductivity, heat stays near the tool. If the cutting tool conducts heat better than the workpiece, it absorbs more heat and wears faster. Minimise contact time during chip formation. Traditional milling involves constant contact, increasing heat due to extended machining time. Dynamic milling uses smaller radial engagement and keeps the cutter moving with less surface contact. Coolant and Lubrication Best Practices High-temp alloys require strategic coolant management: Water offers excellent heat transfer but poor lubrication. Combat abrasion with coolant rich in extreme pressure (EP) additives. Air aids chip evacuation when coolant isn't viable. Neat oils provide superior lubrication but are reserved for extreme cases due to maintenance requirements. Placement matters as much as volume. Ensure coolant hits the cutting zone directly—poorly aimed nozzles waste coolant and leave tools vulnerable. Tools like the HARVI IV series offer through-tool coolant delivery. “Higher coolant concentrations help reduce abrasive wear and manage heat when machining high-temp alloys,” said Katie Myers, Product Manager Marketing at Kennametal. “High-pressure through-tool coolant ensures effective heat removal and chip evacuation, crucial for tool life and part quality.” Using Ceramic Tools in a Dry Environment Ceramic tools offer unique advantages when machining high-temp aerospace alloys. Their extreme temperature resistance makes them well-suited for dry cutting where traditional carbide tools struggle. “When we discuss ceramic tools, we're almost always talking about dry cutting,” explained George. “You need careful setup because ceramic tools are much more sensitive to tool path and workpiece geometry.” Managing heat without coolant is key with ceramics. George noted, “Heat is obviously a big concern with high-temp alloys, but ceramic likes heat. We want to generate heat and eliminate it quickly.” George advised avoiding re-cutting and ensuring good chip evacuation to prevent premature wear or failure. He suggested specific motion strategies: “Step the walls of pockets. As you step down, move away from the wall with each pass. This keeps the tool away from the heat zone and helps prevent excessive burr formation.” Effective Approaches for Solid End Milling of Aerospace Components Pocketing Techniques and Methods of Entry: Many aerospace parts feature deep, complex pockets requiring proper entry strategy and cutter selection, especially in materials prone to work hardening and thermal stress. “Pocketing is one of the most common aerospace operations, but it can be tricky with high-temp alloys,” said George. Plunge entry works best for small pockets with limited space. HARVI I TE or HARVI II TE solid end mills plunge directly into material, offering high flexibility for tight spaces. Ensure cutting forces don't exceed machine capabilities. Ramp entry suits deeper pockets and allows more aggressive cutting. Straight angle ramping can significantly reduce cycle times but requires machine rigidity to withstand higher forces. Helical interpolation provides the most stable and efficient pocketing strategy due to lighter depth of cuts. Corner geometry requires careful consideration. Oversized tools can cause excessive radial engagement in tight corners, increasing wear and chatter. “If you have a half-inch radius corner, use a three-quarter-inch diameter tool, maybe even 5/8,” said George. “Use a small enough tool to follow the corner arc without gouging or over-engagement.” Minimising Chatter and Maintaining Rigidity: Chatter often stems from machine-tool interface issues with high-temp alloys. Even the best tool can fail if the spindle or machine lacks rigidity to absorb cutting forces. “Chatter occurs when there's too much movement between tool and part, leading to inconsistent cuts and tool wear,” explains Myers. “The best way to reduce chatter is ensuring your machine has sufficient rigidity.” If chatter persists despite adjusting stickout and tool selection, reduce depth of cut to lessen cutting forces instead of slowing feeds and speeds. This keeps vibrations in check without impacting cycle time. “Even with a robust machine, combining long stickout and weak spindle can lead to chatter. It's about balancing tool size, rigidity and cutting force,” George says. Cutting Parameters and Tool Life Tool longevity directly relates to cutting parameters. Running tools at correct speeds, feeds and chip loads ensures maximum tool life while preventing premature wear. Speed is crucial when machining high-temp alloys—too fast burns through tools quickly. Chip thickness is equally important. Light radial engagement without proper feed compensation leads to rubbing rather than cutting, generating excess heat and accelerating wear. Wall Stiffness and Support Geometry When machining features like blisks, isogrids, or blades, geometry plays a critical role in maintaining part stability and minimising deflection. Adjacent or curved walls often reinforce features, offering opportunities to exceed standard roughing rules. “The curvature of the blade actually adds stiffness to that part,” said Davis. “These rules are guidelines. If the wall has curvature, adjacent walls, corners, or bottom radii—all add stiffness.” Conclusion Machining aerospace components from high-temp alloys demands more than just the right tools—it requires a comprehensive strategy addressing heat, rigidity, toolpath planning, and part geometry. Using the right strategies keeps you ahead of the solid end milling curve in machining complex aerospace parts.

Daily Halacha Podcast - Daily Halacha By Rabbi Eli J. Mansour
The Halacha below was derived from multiple classes orated by Rabbi Eli Mansour in the Bekiim B'Halacha series. Click on any of the dates below to hear the original audio files, which are the sources for today's Halacha below. 04/08/25 ; 04/09/25 ; 05/05/25 ; 05/06/25 Should the Yud of the Tefillin Shel Yad Be Touching the Bayit—And How Critical Is Its Placement? The Tefillin Shel Yad is wrapped around the arm and tied with a knot shaped like the Hebrew letter Yud, positioned near the Bayit (box). This Yud is not merely decorative; it carries both Halachic and Kabbalistic importance. But how close must it be to the box? Does its position affect the validity of the Misva? And what happens if it slips out of place during prayer? What Is the Yud on the Tefillin Shel Yad? The Torah uses the phrase "Totafot"—frontlets—when referring to Tefillin. The Halacha teaches that this word alludes to four Parashiot (Torah passages) placed in the Shel Rosh, but also connects to the name of Hashem. The Name of Hashem, as reflected in the Tefillin, appears through the knot of the Shel Yad shaped like a Yud, the shape of the knot of the Shel Rosh (a Dalet), and the Shin embossed on the Shel Rosh. Together, these letters spell out "Shaddai," one of the sacred Names of Hashem. According to Kabbala, this structure must be complete and properly aligned, or it interrupts the spiritual flow the Tefillin are meant to draw. But aside from the Kabbalistic implications, there are real Halachic consequences if the Yud is not properly positioned. Must the Yud Be Touching the Bayit? Yes. The Yud must rest against the Bayit, and the knot should be snug and stable. The Shulhan Aruch (Orah Haim 27:2) rules that the Yud must not be separated from the box, even by a small space. The Yud is part of the Halachic identity of the Tefillin. According to the Hida (Birkei Yosef), if the Yud is not close to the Bayit—if it slips down the strap or hangs loosely—the Tefillin may be considered Pasul (invalid), especially during the Beracha. To fulfill the Misva properly, one must ensure at the time of the Beracha and binding that the Yud is tight and resting directly against the base of the box. Does It Invalidate the Tefillin If the Yud Moves During Tefila? If the Yud is touching the Bayit when the Beracha is recited and the Tefillin are put on, but it later shifts slightly during prayer, this does not invalidate the Misva. The critical moment is the initial placement and blessing. However, if a person notices that the Yud has slipped or become completely separated during prayer, it is appropriate to adjust it immediately and discreetly. There's no need to repeat the Beracha unless it was clearly never positioned properly to begin with. In fact, it is a good practice to check the Yud each morning before putting on the Tefillin. Make sure the loop is tight and that the knot is secure. If the knot is loose or keeps sliding, it may need to be retied by someone knowledgeable in Tefillin construction. Can the Yud Be Placed Under or Behind the Bayit? The Yud should rest alongside the Bayit, not behind it and not underneath. If it is placed underneath the base—wedged between the box and the arm—it may cause the Bayit to sit at an angle, or lift it slightly, which is improper. The Bayit must sit flat against the bicep, not propped up or tilted. The Yud should hug the corner of the Bayit—visible and aligned, not tucked away or hidden. Some people mistakenly wrap the strap in a way that presses the Yud underneath or squeezes it behind the box. This not only distorts the alignment, but also reduces the visibility and symbolic meaning of the Yud. What If the Yud Is Missing or Not Formed Properly? If the Yud is missing altogether—or if the strap is tied in a way that does not resemble the letter Yud—then the Tefillin Shel Yad is invalid. The form of the knot must clearly resemble a Yud. This is why it's important that the knot is tied by a qualified sofer or expert, and not altered by someone unfamiliar with the laws. Even well-meaning adjustments can result in a shape that does not fulfill the Halachic requirement. Also, over time, straps wear out. The corner may fray or stretch, and the Yud shape may become unclear. A person should periodically inspect the Tefillin or bring them to a sofer for checking. How Tight Should the Knot Be? The strap and knot should be tight enough to keep the Yud securely in place, but not so tight that it pulls or deforms the shape of the Bayit. There is a balance between tightness and comfort. One should feel the firmness, but also be able to move the arm normally. Excessive tightness is unnecessary—and even harmful to the Tefillin and to circulation. Summary - The Yud must be placed directly next to the Bayit of the Tefillin Shel Yad. - This position is Halachically required, not just symbolic or aesthetic. - If the Yud slips after the Beracha, the Misva remains valid, but it should be adjusted. - The Yud should be visible and rest on the side of the Bayit, not under or behind it. - A missing or malformed Yud invalidates the Tefillin Shel Yad. - The strap should be tight enough to hold the Yud in place, but not overly tight.

Daily Halacha Podcast - Daily Halacha By Rabbi Eli J. Mansour
The Halacha below was derived from multiple classes orated by Rabbi Eli Mansour in the Bekiim B'Halacha series. Click on any of the recording dates below to hear the original audio files, which are the sources for today's Halacha below. 04/03/25 ; 04/06/25 ; 04/10/25 ; 04/28/25 ; 05/07/25 What Is the Exact Placement of Tefillin Shel Yad—and How Precise Must It Be? The Torah instructs us to bind Tefillin "al zero'ekha"—on your arm. But where exactly is that? This Halacha explores the required placement of the Tefillin Shel Yad according to Halacha and Kabbala, how precise we must be with its position, and how to properly wear both Rashi and Rabbenu Tam Tefillin on the arm at the same time. What Is the Required Area for the Tefillin Shel Yad? The Torah uses the phrase "al zero'ekha" — upon your arm — and the Gemara clarifies that this refers to the bicep, specifically the upper part of the arm between the shoulder and the elbow. The Shulhan Aruch (Orah Haim 27:1) rules that the Tefillin must be placed on the inner part of the bicep, facing the heart. This physical location expresses the idea of subjugating the heart to Hashem. The Tefillin Shel Yad represents control over the heart — the source of our emotions and desires — directing our inner feelings toward Avodat Hashem. There are two key placement criteria: 1. The Tefillin must be entirely above the elbow joint — even partially below the joint renders it Pasul. 2. The Tefillin must be placed on the fleshy part of the bicep — not too high where it sits on the shoulder bone, and not too low where it might encroach on the elbow itself. How Precise Does the Placement Need to Be? According to the Shulhan Aruch and Poskim, the correct position is between the midpoint of the bicep and the elbow, but slightly closer to the elbow than the shoulder. That is the ideal range. The Tefillin should not be too high — even one fingerbreadth above the permitted area can be a problem. Likewise, if the Bayit is touching or resting on the elbow joint itself, the Tefillin may be invalid. To help people keep within the boundaries, I recommend that the bottom of the Bayit should rest just above the elbow bone — close, but clearly above it. This guarantees the placement is kosher and within the Halachic zone. Some Poskim, like the Vilna Gaon, insist on precise mid-bicep placement. Others, like the Ben Ish Hai, suggest placing the Tefillin slightly lower — closer to the elbow — so long as it stays well above the joint. Our practice, based on the view of Maran and the Mekubalim, is to angle the Tefillin slightly downward, toward the elbow and heart. This not only fulfills the physical requirement, but also expresses the spiritual symbolism. Can It Be Placed Too Far Inward or Too Far Outward? Absolutely. The Tefillin Shel Yad must be placed on the inner side of the bicep, the part that faces the heart when the arm is resting down by the side. If it's wrapped too far around to the outer arm — or angled too far behind the bicep — it can be invalid. Some people make the mistake of pulling the strap too tightly, causing the Bayit to slide or rotate inward, pressing into the side of the arm. That may look secure, but it can distort the shape or angle of the Bayit. The Tefillin should rest flat, facing straight ahead, and not be forced inward or outward by pressure from the strap. How Should One Wear Both Rashi and Rabbenu Tam Tefillin on the Same Arm? Many Sepharadim, especially those following the teachings of the Arizal and Ben Ish Hai, wear both Rashi and Rabbenu Tam Tefillin during Shahrit. The Halacha permits wearing both Shel Yad Tefillin at the same time — but only if both boxes are positioned vertically, one above the other, within the Halachic zone. Typically, the Rashi is placed first, closer to the elbow, and the Rabbenu Tam slightly above it. This stacking is valid as long as both remain within the required area. However, one must never place the two boxes side by side (horizontally across the arm). That is Pasul. The Halacha demands the Tefillin be placed "on your arm," not "around your arm." Horizontally-spaced boxes do not fulfill the Misva at all. What If a Person Has a Smaller Arm and Can't Fit Both Tefillin? In many cases — especially with younger boys or people with thinner arms — there may not be enough room to fit both Tefillin one above the other. In that case, it is better to wear Rashi first, remove it, and then wear Rabbenu Tam afterward. There is no need to force both on at once. It's more important that each Tefillin is worn correctly and within the Halachic boundaries. Halacha never requires a person to compromise proper placement just to fulfill both customs simultaneously. If there is room, both can be worn together. If not, one after the other is perfectly acceptable and often preferred. Summary - The Tefillin Shel Yad must be worn on the inner bicep, above the elbow, angled toward the heart. - It must be entirely within the zone between the elbow and the shoulder, not sitting too high on the shoulder bone and not touching the elbow joint. - The Bayit should sit flat and upright — not twisted, not rotated inward, and not pushed outward by the strap. - When wearing both Rashi and Rabbenu Tam Tefillin, they must be placed vertically, one above the other — never side by side. - If the arm is too small to fit both boxes properly, one should wear them separately, rather than compromising on Halachic placement.

And why I built Fearless Fostering to give it to you. When I got the call for our first placement, I wanted to feel ready. I had taken the classes. I had read the books. I had organized the bedroom. But when that little one crossed our threshold for the first time… I realized how much I wasn't prepared for. Not because I didn't care. But because foster care is not just logistics. It's a thousand emotions at once — grief, love, guilt, hope, anger, fear — and no roadmap for how to hold it all. I created Fearless Fostering because I never want another mama to feel as alone, confused, and emotionally overwhelmed as I did back then. Today, I want to tell you exactly what I needed during my first placement — and why Fearless Fostering exists to give you what I didn't have. Enrollment closes tonight at midnight, and the program begins tomorrow, July 1st. If your heart's been whispering “yes,” I hope this post helps you say it out loud.

In this episode of the How to Hunt Deer Podcast, hosts Dan and Jason discuss their recent experiences, including family activities and the challenges of balancing life with hunting. They delve into the importance of finding time to decompress during hunting season and share strategies for tree stand and saddle placement. The conversation also covers concealment techniques, shooting lane considerations, and the differences between permanent and mobile hunting setups, providing valuable insights for both novice and experienced hunters. In this conversation, Dan and Jason delve into the intricacies of tree stand placement, movement, and comfort while hunting. They discuss the importance of optimizing tree stand locations, the pros and cons of using saddles versus traditional tree stands, and the critical role of noise and movement in deer hunting. The conversation also touches on the strategic use of trail cameras, the significance of food plot placement, and the necessity of safe practices when setting up tree stands. Overall, the discussion provides valuable insights for hunters looking to enhance their strategies and ensure safety in the field. Takeaways: Finding balance between family life and hunting is challenging. Decompression time during hunting season is essential. Tree stand placement should consider deer movement and concealment. Using evergreen trees can provide better cover for hunters. Shooting lanes should be trimmed to allow for natural deer movement. Mobile hunting requires adaptability and quick decision-making. Pruners are essential for adjusting setups in the field. Concealment can be enhanced with creative cover solutions. Permanent stands require more planning and thought. Understanding the landscape is crucial for successful hunting. Tree stand placement is crucial for successful hunting. Cover shiny labels on gear to avoid detection by deer. Comfort in the tree stand can affect hunting success. Movement in the tree can be more pronounced in saddles. Noise from equipment can alert deer more than movement. Saddles offer mobility but require practice to master. Trail cameras should be placed strategically away from stands. Food plots should be located based on deer movement patterns. Access and exit routes are vital for minimizing deer disturbance. Safety precautions are essential when setting up tree stands. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
