Development of a binder formulation for fused deposition of ceramics
T.F. McNulty, F. Mohammadi, A. Bandyopadhyay, D.J. Shanefield, S.C. Danforth, A. SafariA new family of thermoplastic binders has been developed for usage in fused deposition of ceramics (FDC). Mixtures were formulated consisting of a base binder, tackifier, wax, and…
Efficient slicing for layered manufacturing
Kamesh Tata, Georges Fadel, Amit Bagchi, Nadim AzizAn adaptive slicing algorithm that can vary the layer thickness in relation to local geometry is presented. The algorithm is based on three fundamental concepts: choice of…
Cladding formation in laser‐beam fusion of metal powder
V. Yevko, C.B. Park, G. Zak, T.W. Coyle, B. BenhabibCurrent commercial rapid prototyping systems can be used for fabricating layered models for subsequent creation of fully‐dense metal parts using investment casting. Due to…
A comparison of rapid prototyping techniques used for wind tunnel model fabrication
Raymond N. Chuk, Vincent J. ThomsonFor faster new product introduction aerospace companies are interested in reducing the time it takes to make wind tunnel models. The increased capabilities of rapid prototyping…
