Processing of metal-diamond-composites using selective laser melting
Adriaan Bernardus Spierings, Christian Leinenbach, Christoph Kenel, Konrad WegenerThe purpose of this paper is a feasibility study that was performed to investigate the basic processability of a diamond-containing metal matrix. Powder-bed-based additive…
Expanding the applicability of FDM-type technologies through materials development
David Roberson, Corey M Shemelya, Eric MacDonald, Ryan WickerThe purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the strategy for increasing the applicability of material extrusion additive manufacturing (AM) technologies, based on fused deposition…
Stress-limiting test structures for rapid low-cost strength and stiffness assessment
Andrew Katz, Justin Nussbaum, Craig P Lusk, Nathan B CraneThe purpose of this paper is to evaluate the use of a simple printed geometry to estimate mechanical properties (elastic modulus, yield strength) with inexpensive test equipment…
In vitro assessment of laser sintered bioactive glass scaffolds with different pore geometries
Krishna C R Kolan, Albin Thomas, Ming C Leu, Greg HilmasThe purpose of this paper is to utilize the selective laser sintering (SLS) process to fabricate scaffolds with complex pore shapes and investigate the effects of pore geometry in…
A survey of sensing and control systems for machine and process monitoring of directed-energy, metal-based additive manufacturing
Edward W Reutzel, Abdalla R NassarThe purpose of this paper is to surveys classic and recently developed strategies for quality monitoring and real-time control of laser-based, directed-energy deposition.Additive…
Experimental-assisted design development for an octahedral cellular structure using additive manufacturing
Li YangThis paper aims to demonstrate the design and verification of a 3D reticulate octahedral cellular structure using both analytical modeling and additive manufacturing…
An exploration of binder jetting of copper
Yun Bai, Christopher B WilliamsThe purpose of this paper is to explore the use of binder jetting to fabricate high-purity copper parts. The ability to fabricate geometrically complex copper shapes would have…
Enhancing the resolution of selective inhibition sintering (sis) for metallic part fabrication
Payman Torabi, Matthew Petros, Behrokh KhoshnevisThe purpose of this paper is to study the implementation of a commercial piezoelectric printhead in the fabrication of high-resolution metal parts selective inhibition sintering…
Negative stiffness honeycombs for recoverable shock isolation
Dixon M Correa, Timothy Klatt, Sergio Cortes, Michael Haberman, Desiderio Kovar, Carolyn SeepersadThe purpose of this paper is to study the behavior of negative stiffness beams when arranged in a honeycomb configuration and to compare the energy absorption capacity of these…
Effect of second-phase doping on laser deposited Al2O3 ceramics
Fangyong Niu, Dongjiang Wu, Guangyi Ma, Siyu Zhou, Bi ZhangThe purpose of this paper is to investigate how a second-phase doping may affect Al2O3 ceramic parts deposited by additive manufacturing (AM) with a laser-engineered net shaping…
Powder-bed-based 3D-printing of function integrated parts
Johannes Glasschroeder, Emanuel Prager, Michael F. ZaehThe purpose of this paper is to show a possibility of how new functions can be integrated in parts, created by the powder-bed-based 3D-printing technology. One big advantage of…
Towards a sustainable and economic selection of part candidates for additive manufacturing
Christian Lindemann, Thomas Reiher, Ulrich Jahnke, Rainer KochThis paper aims to present a methodology to help end-users to find appropriate part candidates for the use of the additive manufacturing (AM) technology. These shall be capable of…
