Redesign and cost estimation of rapid manufactured plastic parts
Eleonora Atzeni, Luca Iuliano, Paolo Minetola, Alessandro SalmiThe purpose of this paper is to highlight how rapid manufacturing (RM) of plastic parts combined with part redesign could have positive repercussion on cost saving.
A review of state‐of‐the‐art large‐sized foam cutting rapid prototyping and manufacturing technologies
Hadley Brooks, David AitchisonCurrent additive rapid prototyping (RP) technologies fail to efficiently produce objects greater than 0.5 m3 due to restrictions in build size, build time and cost. A need exists…
Temperature distribution in powder beds during 3D printing
M. Dressler, M. Röllig, M. Schmidt, A. Maturilli, J. HelbertThis purpose of this paper is to report about the temperature distribution in metal and ceramic powder beds during 3D printing. The differing powders are thoroughly characterized…
Development of a regenerative pump impeller using rapid manufacturing techniques
Francis J. Quail, Thomas Scanlon, Matthew StricklandThe purpose of this paper is to present a method of rapid prototyping (RP) used in the development of a regenerative pump impeller. RP technology was used to create complex…
A method for performance evaluation of RE/RP systems in dentistry
Michele Germani, Roberto Raffaeli, Alida MazzoliThe purpose of this paper is to investigate a method for comparing the scanning and reproducing accuracy of highly shaped objects like plaster casts used in dentistry.
Characterization of the mechanical properties of samples fabricated by an experimental SGM device
Guillermo Zañartu‐Apara, Jorge Ramos‐GrezThe purpose of this paper is to study the effect of different parameters (layer thickness, jetted binder volume per layer and type of binder and temperature) on the mechanical…
A novel sucrose porogen‐based solid freeform fabrication system for bone scaffold manufacturing
Lin Lu, Qingwei Zhang, David Wootton, Peter I. Lelkes, Jack ZhouMusculoskeletal conditions are a major health concern in the USA because of a large aging population and increased occurrence of sport‐related injuries. Bone tissue engineering…
Geometric feedback control of discrete‐deposition SFF systems
Daniel L. Cohen, Hod LipsonNew applications of solid freeform fabrication (SFF) are arising, such as functional rapid prototyping and in situ fabrication, which push SFF to its limits in terms of…
