Professor Zhenglong Fang's research lab specializes in advanced manufacturing and materials processing, with a focus on functional metallic materials such as metallic glasses, electrical steels, and additively manufactured alloys. The lab investigates the machinability, subsurface integrity, and microstructural evolution of these materials during precision manufacturing processes like grinding, milling, and punching, with particular attention to minimizing defects and preserving magnetic and mechanical properties. The research integrates experimental mechanics, microstructure characterization (e.g., EBSD, nanoindentation), and process modeling to optimize manufacturing for high-performance applications in energy-efficient motors, turbines, and magnetic cores.

Iron-based amorphous metallic glass foil has a growing demand for the energy-efficient electric parts due to the excellent magnetic performances. The extreme mechanical properties in terms of high ultimate strength and high hardness make it to be a typical difficult-to-cut material. In addition, the form of ribbon foil formed by melt spinning technique can effectively reduce the eddy loss but also makes the conventional milling to be hardly performed. Amorphous laminated composite block consiste
