Additive Manufacturing:Types, Materials, and Processes

Additive Manufacturing ProcessDefinition: the process of joining materials to make objects from 3Dmodels, usually layer upon layer, with a 3D printer. Subtractivemanufacturing use techniques such as milling, cutting, or turning tocreate an object from a single piece of material.Types of Materials:Plastics: polylactic acid filament is the most commonly used materialfor 3D printingMetals: brass, bronze, titanium alloy, stainless steelOther: wood, carbon fiber, bio or organic material

Slicing Software G-CodeSlicing software takes a CAD model and converts it into G-code. G-code is the programming language used to operate the machine. The codehelps operate startup, shutdown, heat temperatures, build plate movement,and extruder head movement. Slicing software will allow users to set a variety of settings depending on themachine. Most slicing software will not show the G-code because of the sheer length ofthe program.

Considerations for Additive Manufacturing PartsWall thickness: total distance from the outside of the object to the infill structure.Infill: percentage of the amount of material on the inside of the structure that supports theexterior faces of the object; (low infill faster print times with low strength; high infill longerprint times; high strength; note: metal prints are 100% infill).Orientation on build plate: rotational direction on x, y, z axis and impacts the following: Scale:Plate balanceSupport materialPrint timePrint resolution A quality resolution may be more difficult to achieve with smaller parts. Larger parts may not fit on the build plate and may need to be sectioned into smaller components;deformation also presents an issue because of variances in heating.Layer Height: A lower layer height will result in better resolution, but longer print time. A higher layer height will result in lower resolution, but shorter print time.

Considerations for Additive Manufacturing Support and Support Structure: Unsupported surfaces on the build plate will need a support structure. Different materials will have different specifications for theangle that needs to be supported based on the distance or angle of the overhang. For example, the object that is parallel with thebuild plate, but does not touch the build plate, will need to be supported.Image 1: Unsupported materialImage 2: Support materialImage 3: High density support material Bridged surface: a surface that is supported from its endpoints be walls of the object.Image 4: Bridge structure Controllable support placement: Typical most CAD slicing software generates support based on input values. More advanced software allows the user to draw a defined support structured. Types of support material Plastic or metal: usually the same as the printed object; removing the support material using a subtractive manufacturingprocess must be done with care as to not damage the object. Dissolvable support: these support materials allow the material to dissolve using a special solvent.

Additive Manufacturing with PlasticFused Deposition Modeling (FDM)Process: Extruder head has a gear inside that feeds the filament through a thermocouple. Within the thermocouple; plastic filament (typically rolled) is heated filament melting point,around 190-240 depending on the machine and material. The filament is pushed into a extrusion nozzle. The extruder head traverses across the build platform on the x and y axis; the extruder headsits close build plate—about the width of a piece of printer paper—providing minimal friction,which helps spread the filament out onto the flat surface. For each layer of the part, the process is repeated.Advantages: Quick print timePrinter can output complex geometryMaterials are inexpensiveFast print timeDisadvantages: Object strength Potential for warping or deformationImage 1: Cutaway of extruder and motorImage 2: Example of layering

Resin Printing (SLA)Process: Starts on a bed of UV curable resinBuild plate sits on top of the resin bedA laser is used to cure resin based on the object’s G-codeObject prints upside downAdvantages: High print quality Smooth surfaces Small layer thicknessDisadvantages: Machine cost High cost of material Difficulty handling material

Additive Manufacturing : Electron Beam Melting (EBM)Process: Material: a powder titanium-aluminum alloy. Material sits on build plate via a rake that moves left and right placing new material on the previous height after the build plate moves along the plateaxes. A high powered laser heats the titanium-aluminum alloy to sinter (harden the material) to the previous layer. Once fully printed, the product is taken to a powder recovery system to remove excess material (sintered powder that is not part of the object) fromthe print.Completed Print with Excess PowderMaterial attached to ObjectAdvantages: Creates a solid structure with no infill Can create complex geometry structures Complete parts have properties similar to wrought parts Faster than other additive modeling that use metal materialDisadvantages: Purity of material Machine setup Secondary process needed to remove support structure and smooth final surface Raw materials have to be used delicately because of the small size of each granule Small print volume

Additive Manufacturing : Electron Beam DED(EBAM)Process uses a laser and wire-fed metal material onto a build plate;similar to FDM. The process takes place inside a vacuum.Advantages: Creates a solid structure with no infill Can create complex geometry structures Complete parts have properties similar to wrought parts Large print volumeDisadvantages: Purity of material Machine setup Secondary process to remove support structure and smooth finalsurface

Additive Manufacturing : Binder Jet PrintingProcess Illustration

Additive Manufacturing : Binder Jet PrintingProcess: Similar to an inkjet printer. A layer of powder is placed over the build plate via a blade. A carriage places droplets of binding agent in specific locations that define the boundaries of the object; the bindingagent bonds the powder particles together. After the final layer, the product is encapsulated by powder and the binding agent is left to cure.Advantages: Fast print process Inexpensive material cost Variety of materials including metalsDisadvantages: Limited mechanical properties due to post processes that can burn off binding agent Limits mechanical properties without post secondary processesPost-Process: Removal of excess powder via high powdered air. Metal parts will need to be sintered (heat-treated) to harden the structure.

extent, pad printing also replaces other decorating processes, such as screen printing, labeling and hot stamping. The form used for pad printing is a plate of etched steel or washed out pho-topolymer. As with intaglio, the image printing elements are contained (etched) in the non-printing surface. During a printing operation, the plate is .

Learning about Pad Printing APPLICATIONS OF PAD PRINTING Transfer pad printing or tampo printing, commonly known as pad printing, is an "indirect offset gravure" printing process. It was originally used in the watch making industry in Switzerland to decorate watch faces. Pad printing has now developed to a point where it is one of the
