Abstract: A method of forming tooling for fabricating a part made from a metal powder is described herein. The method includes forming a first sheet and second sheet. The first sheet includes a first protrusion defining a first cavity and a first flange extending about the first protrusion. The second sheet includes a second flange. Additionally, the method includes arranging the first sheet and the second sheet to abut together the first flange of the first sheet and the second flange of the second sheet and to define an enclosure. The enclosure includes a void defined between the first cavity of the first sheet and the second sheet. The void has a shape of the part. The method further includes welding together the first flange of the first sheet and the second flange of the second sheet along a portion of the first flange spaced away from the first protrusion.

Abstract: Methods for processing workpieces. A first temperature of a first section of a workpiece having a non-uniform thickness may be maintained. A cooling rate of a second section of the workpiece may be controlled while maintaining the first temperature of the first section. The workpiece may be quenched after cooling the second section of the workpiece to form a quenched workpiece, in which the cooling rate may be controlled such that the second section of the workpiece has desired properties.

Abstract: Provided are wingtip torque boxes and methods of fabricating such boxes using friction stir welding. Specifically, a wingtip torque box may be formed by friction stir welding two monolithic clamshells along their respective spars thereby forming a new monolithic structure. Use of the friction stir welding and monolithic clamshells simplifies the overall fabrication process and yields a robust wingtip torque box that can be bolted on or otherwise attached to an aircraft wing. The wingtip torque box may include internal grid stiffeners and/or external stiffeners that may be also monolithic with other components of the box. For example, the stiffeners may be machined in spars or skin portions of the clamshells during fabrication of clamshells. The wingtip torque box may have a continuous cavity extending between the ends and, in some embodiments, between spars of the box and providing access for performing various operations inside the box.

Abstract: Forging dies are formed from a plurality of layers stacked together to form an assembly, or laminate. Each respective layer may be cut to form a portion of a die cavity, and the layers may be stacked together such that the cut portions are aligned to form the die cavity. The layers are fastened together to form a first die half and/or a second die half of disclosed forging dies. Each layer may be selectively removable from the die half for maintenance and/or replacement. Disclosed forging dies may be formed of lower grade materials as compared to conventional forging dies, and the number and thickness of layers may be varied to accommodate the specific part geometry of the part being forged. Related methods of making said forging dies and using said forging dies to make parts are also disclosed.

Abstract: A ceramic die for a hot press is provided, along with a method of constructing a ceramic die. The ceramic die includes a ceramic die body defining a mold surface configured to shape a part during a superplastic forming process. The mold surface defines at least one curved surface and at least one non-curved surface, spaced apart from the at least one curved surface. The ceramic die also includes a plurality of fibers disposed within the ceramic die body. The plurality of fibers may be preferentially located proximate the at least one curved surface such that a first portion of the ceramic die body proximate the at least one curved surface has a greater percentage of fibers than a second portion of the ceramic die body proximate the at least one non-curved surface.
