Douna's contribution
Douna applied CNC large-part machining and practical engineering knowledge. Production planning, workholding and the machining sequence were matched to the component.
The result
A machined main rotor blade for a scale prototype for generating energy from ocean currents.
The historical source identifies workholding, dimensions and process control as key factors in this machining operation.
