“…Green or sustainable micro-milling is going to probably spread more and more due to the increasing attention to the environment, although it is often a difficult-to-apply or costly technology [184,296]. Furthermore, the energy-consumption minimisation and the refusal of use of application of cutting fluids (dry machining) often conflict with operation time minimisation or efficiently.…”

Recently, mechanical micro-milling is one of the most promising micro-manufacturing processes for productive and accurate complex-feature generation in various materials including metals, ceramics, polymers and composites. The micro-milling technology is widely adapted already in many high-tech industrial sectors; however, its reliability and predictability require further developments. In this paper, micro-milling related recent results and developments are reviewed and discussed including micro-chip removal and micro-burr formation mechanisms, cutting forces, cutting temperature, vibrations, surface roughness, cutting fluids, workpiece materials, process monitoring, micro-tools and coatings, and process-modelling. Finally, possible future trends and research directions are highlighted in the micro-milling and micro-machining areas.

“…Yet, an understanding of the determinants of energy consumption and its modeling in emerging economies is important. A detailed knowledge about energy consumption is becoming increasingly relevant, with the aim of saving costs, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions, because energy reduction is an environmental and economic challenge [12]. Between, energy consumption and economic growth have been found to be very complex due to prevailing factors, because energy is a key component of economic and social progress [13].…”

This study examines the impact of the Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on Energy Consumption in relation to Human and Environmental Responses in Ontario Canada. Supply and demand of Electricity which is a secondary form of energy was extensively studied and reviewed. This impact was compared between the active COVID-19 period in the study area and similar periods of previous years. The data sets studied, reviewed and analyzed were extracted from the database of the World Bank World Development Indicator and the Independent electricity System Operator (IESO) of Ontario Canada. From the study and analyses, it was evident that: COVID-19 has disrupted many businesses, resulting in reduced provincial demand/Consumption and creating significant uncertainty in supply and demand forecasts. Demand reductions in all hours ranging from 800 -3,000 MW, which is 6 -18% of typical demand for the similar periods/time of the year. Industrial and Commercial consumption were drastically reduced due to the closure of majority of the factories and industries as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. This also led to the reduction in the Green House Gas and Co2 emissions in the studied period of active COVID-19, compared to similar periods of previous years. As expected, Residential and household demand experienced some increase because of the stay at home rule that was employed to manage social distancing concept for the COVID-19 period. An all-inclusive stakeholders dialogue is especially important during periods of uncertainty to ensure stable maintenance and reliable operation of the grid.

“…As in conventional-size milling, the cutting speed, the feed rate, and the depth of cut are the most meaningful process parameters. The research of the best combinations of these parameters is crucial to guarantee high precision, flexibility, excellent surface finishing, tight geometrical and dimensional tolerances with a low material scrap in the micrometric magnitude scale [4,5]. The selection of the process parameters must also consider the tool deflection effect, defined also as tool run-out effect [6].…”

Ultraprecision micromachining is a technology suitable to fabricate miniaturized and complicated 3-dimensional microstructures and micromechanisms. High geometrical precision and elevated surface finishing are both key requirements in several manufacturing sectors. Electronics, biomedicals, optics and watchmaking industries are some of the fields where micromachining finds applications. In the last years, the integration between product functions, the miniaturization of the features and the increasing of geometrical complexity are trends which are shared by all the cited industrial sectors. These tendencies implicate higher requirements and stricter geometrical and dimensional tolerances in machining. From this perspective, the optimization of the micromachining process parameters assumes a crucial role in order to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the process. An interesting example is offered by the high-end horology field. The optimization of micro machining is indispensable to achieve excellent surface finishing combined with high precision. The cost-saving objective can be pursued by limiting manual post-finishing and by complying the very strict quality standards directly in micromachining. A micro-machining optimization technique is presented in this a paper. The procedure was applied to manufacturing of main-plates and bridges of a wristwatch movement. Cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut were varied in an experimental factorial plan in order to investigate their correlation with some fundamental properties of the machined features. The dimensions, the geometry and the surface finishing of holes, pins and pockets were evaluated as results of the micromachining optimization. The identified correlations allow to manufacture a wristwatch movement in conformity with the required technical characteristics and by considering the cost and time constraints.
