Background: Terminology “Direct Digital”… “Laser Additive”… “Direct Part Mfg”… …there are standards? 4 Additive Manufacturing is Much More Than Just “Printing”
ASTM F 42 Sub-Committee on Terminology (F 2792) 1. Binder Jetting an additive manufacturing process in which a liquid bonding agent is selectively deposited to join powder materials 2. Directed Energy Deposition an additive manufacturing process in which focused thermal energy is used to fuse materials by melting as they are being deposited 3. Material Extrusion an additive manufacturing process in which material is 4. Material Jetting an additive manufacturing process in which droplets of build material are selectively deposited 5. Powder Bed Fusion an additive manufacturing process in which thermal energy selectively fuses regions of a powder bed 6. Sheet Lamination an additive manufacturing process in which sheets of material are bonded to form an object 7. Vat Polymerization an additive manufacturing process in which liquid photopolymer in a vat is selectively cured by 5 selectively dispensed through a nozzle or orifice light-activated polymerization
Background: Technology Primer • Additive Manufacturing (AM) materials – Polymeric (Nylon, PAEK, ABS-like, etc. ) – Metallic (Ti-alloys, Co. Cr, SS 17 -4, etc. ) – Composite, Ceramic, Paper-based • AM enables smarter manufacturing – 3 D Art-to-Part via 2 D layer-by-layer – Near-net, to net-shape parts – Increases the design space Directed Energy Powder Bed Fusion Material Extrusion 6 Increase Product Potential, Reduce Waste (Time, Materials…Cost)
Background: Potential Benefits • 1 st: Affordability – Reduce tooling, waste – Complexity = Simplicity • 2 nd: Smart(er) Manufacturing Traditionally: 9 piece welded duct assembly AM: 2 -piece bonded assembly – Integrate processes – Support RP & production • 3 rd: Optimize Product Design – Reduce weight, support modularity – Multi-functional parts 7 F-35 Representative Parts Oak Ridge National Lab With Additive You Can Design for Functionality
