Support slimming for single material based additive manufacturing
In layer-based additive manufacturing (AM), supporting structures need to be inserted to support the overhanging regions. The adding of supporting structures slows down the speed of fabrication and introduces artifacts onto the finished surface. We present an orientation-driven shape optimizer to slim down the supporting structures used in single material-based AM. The optimizer can be employed...
متن کاملAdvanced Material Strategies for Next-Generation Additive Manufacturing
Additive manufacturing (AM) has drawn tremendous attention in various fields. In recent years, great efforts have been made to develop novel additive manufacturing processes such as micro-/nano-scale 3D printing, bioprinting, and 4D printing for the fabrication of complex 3D structures with high resolution, living components, and multimaterials. The development of advanced functional materials ...
متن کاملAn Expert Rule-based System for Additive Manufacturing Selection
This paper assesses the possibility of using Rapid Manufacturing (RM) as a final manufacturing route through a comparison of RM processes capabilities vs. conventional manufacturing processes. This is done by means of a computer-aided system (RMADS) intended to guide the designer in the selection of optimum production parameters according to typical requirements of the first design stages. A nu...
متن کاملAdditive manufacturing with RepRap methodology: current situation and future prospects
In February 2004, Adrian Bowyer, from the University of Bath, began an open initiative called RepRap, with the purpose of creating an open source rapid prototyping machine which, moreover, could replicate itself. This article analizes the current status of the RepRap initiative, commenting the basic components of RepRap machines, the differences between the different 3D printers developed by th...
متن کاملLaser additive manufacturing of 3D meshes for optical applications
Selective laser melting (SLM) is a widely used additive manufacturing process that can be used for printing of intricate three dimensional (3D) metallic structures. Here we demonstrate the fabrication of titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V alloy based 3D meshes with nodally-connected diamond like unit cells, with lattice spacing varying from 400 to 1000 microns. A Concept Laser M2 system equipped with las...
